Welcome! Most everyone here is tolerable

What all did you eat? That might help.

@@DBLPattyMELT7am I wasn't even talking to you... but thanks for playing

Funny how some people turned to blatant nastiness. Also funny how people think some of us are "diagnosing" another person. I don't recall doing that. I am however a therapist, and I have in fact studied eating disorders, and I do in fact know that it could point to a POSSIBLE (my exact word) eating disorder. If you don't want opinions, don't ask for them. And, as for me, I'm not an "EX FATTY" yet, but I'm really glad you feel comfortable shaming other people that you are just like (or used to be). I'm sure it's great being you. Name calling is something I'll leave to the middle schoolers. Have a beautiful day, I know I will - in spite of some that ooze negativity.

These are all SO GOOD and so heartfelt, thank you for sharing!

@@Shell88 That is powerful stuff! "now to make the binding of the book look like the pages" WOW WOW WOW!

And I'm so sorry for your loss

Have you read the Emotional First Aid Kit? It's an awesome book, I highly recommend it

That is so awesome! I've heard some people recommend Biotene mouth spray for the dry mouth

@@SuzeMuze I think that's awesome. A healthy positive attitude toward yourself leads to great success in many areas of our lives. WLS being no exception

@@The Candidate can tell you allllll about Kaiser and their 6 month required classes

As promised, I'm going to do a different "thankful" and "positive" post every day up to thanksgiving. Here is today's post.

We all had such a great time uplifting others on the first positive post . Now let's take it one step further. We're going to do this every day up to Thanksgiving This one is going to be interesting. I want you to share at least one thing that you are thankful you learned from being an overweight or obese person. Make it a POSITIVE thing, nothing negative. For me, I am thankful that I learned that my true friends and closest family will stick with me no matter what I look like. I also learned how to notice people for their hearts and minds, and not what's always on the outside, because I wanted people to notice that about me, too. What are you thankful for learning?

I wonder if you left out the bread crumbs if they would turn out more like sausage balls? Oh yummy, maybe sausage and Brussels!

@@living55 I'd love to have a copy of that if you don't mind! I love comparing notes

You go girl!

This terrifies me. I have Anthem BCBS in GA. My surgeon says everything will be a.o.k. but now I'm worried! Everything is being submitted to them tomorrow... I'm scheduled for 12/18

LOL! I had to give her a hard time because I would so do that, too!

Amazing! You don't even look like the same person!

And if you weren't a newbie I would tease you and ask what are they refraining from? lol

Try making your own from dried beans, too!

@@CowgirlJane that was really beautiful

Weird? Maybe. But it does point a giant red arrow at a possible eating disorder. Consider counseling.

I follow your blog and you are a true inspiration!

@@SleeveNik lack of vomiting and nausea is not "wrong" lol. Get your priorities straight, lady! haha
