  1. Not in the bear community. I'm worried about being too thin. Oh wow that's excellent! As a woman I am always fearful of being stereotyped "butch lesbian" crap. In reality I'm uber girly so that makes people say "you don't LOOK gay" So apparently I can't win! Lol
  2. We joked maybe we should toss them in the freezer with sticks and try for pudding pops! Hahaha
  3. I found this today while shopping at Target. Bought some and it tastes fabulous! Not strange taste at all and its PB minus the globby texture and most of the fat! I will definitely be adding a tad to chocolate shakes here and there.
  4. Mine is liquid only...4 protein shakes, fat free broths,sugar free jello, sugar free Popsicles and any other zero calorie liquid.
  5. Thanks all! I will check those out...my pudding set but just barely...um, let's call it soft set ????
  6. So, my partner is joining me on a lot of aspects of my diet. I am eating my high Protein jell-o and she is not a jell-o lover at all so she has requested sugar free pudding. So, I bought sugar free chocolate pudding and because she wanted it to be high protein I made it with vanilla Protein shake. But it just occurred to me now that its made and in the fridge that it may not set properly due to lack of milk. Has anyone made pudding with protein shake? Was it a disaster or did it turn out ok? As for me, fingers crossed!
  7. You were unfairly ambushed during a very stressful moment when you were extremely vulnerable. (practically wheeling into the OR) ​Your insurance company will assist you in rectifying this situation. Good luck and please keep us updated on the status. You are not stupid and this is not your fault at all.
  8. This thread has gone from being apprehensive to funny...thank you!
  9. February 3rd! Super excited!!!
  10. So I just watched the show on Hulu. Well then... ???? cLEAN MAMA DIET ...she is just a lot of trash talk....thought it was an NBA game there for a few min with all the trash talk from her. Has she even gone over food with her dieter or did I miss it? I agree that her dieter just looks so so done! But, I will continue to watch and I am not at all surprised that the one "expert" is gone after "cookiegate" She seemed more concerned about vegan foods than anything else.
  11. I'm downing fat free broth like there is no tomorrow! I have never been a sweet person so I'm all for the beef broth, chicken broth and vegetable broth.
  12. This is really bugging me....who actually told you they would not bill ins ? Because honestly Doctors/ nurses in the hospital do not control billing in a way. Someone does it for them. The hospital would bill for their portion..room/OR time/ medications etc and Dr's office would bill for their portion for services separately.
  13. The reason I would attempt to file the claim myself and be reimbursed is that the MD already has your money. If they submit to insurance he gets paid AGAIN. Then you must wait for the MD to reimburse you. Most insurance companies will reimburse you for any out of pocket costs they actually cover
  14. Omg! Hahahah If I ever hear that on a flight I'm coming In Search of you to say Hi!
  15. I would also, at the next party function beat them to the punch and announce your surgery. Put yourself before they do and give them a taste of their own medicine I say
  16. Yikes! Some people are just toxic.
  17. I would explain the situation ...small child at home, up to bathroom etc. Trust me he has seen it all before and it should not have a negative effect. He will just analyze the data you have logged. Good luck!
  18. Yikes! I would just call insurance and obtain paperwork to be reimbursed, just ask what documentation they need. Canceled check, receipt etc and submit for reimbursement Good luck
  19. That's awesome! I emailed it to myself so I can print it tonight....
  20. That's awesome! I'm ordering one!! Thank you
  21. It's normal for you to get a point in the day where you feel tired, surgery or not. There is always a natural circadian rhythm dip. For me it's about 3-4pm and after 4 I'm good! I usually just the to get in a cup of coffee or walk to wake myself up and get through it. Good luck!
  22. Does anyone "Tape" ? That's is use a tape measure to take your measurements weekly or monthly in addition to stepping on the scale? I'm going to start taping this weekend. I weigh on Sunday's so I will also start taping just so I can watch that also. Past experience has taught me that sometimes the scale may not move but the measurements do!
