I love cheese in all it's forms (expect maybe spray...), but over the past month I've learned to treat it like I used to treat Cookies... have a small serving every now and again. For me at this time, the salt (Water retention) and binding effect are not a good combo and I'm already at my Protein goals, so I'm mostly going without. I do have cottage cheese every day for Breakfast, though.

I was told not to do juice or glucose tabs because they would just make it worse (and possibly cause dumping). Try drinking a protein shake if your sugar is too low.

Schadenfreude?

Party with friends, cards, and dinner. I'm bringing pulled crockpot chicken with a spicy sauce. "When all is said and done, usually more has been said than done. "

And this@@Fredbear, is what a real man sounds like!! Not condescending, not boorish, not patronizing but with compassion and understanding of another person's grief, no matter the fault, no matter the reason! *shrug* Everything I post is either my own opinion or fact. You seem to overlook that at no point have I ever addressed the OP; my comments are directed solely at the hen brigade. Kind of like teaching a ignorant b**t* to read or think, amirite? Again, *shrug*.

Not sure why you have to imply that "he'll get his" and that she has to be "revenged." If he doesn't want to be married to her, why would she want to be married to him (unless she's some kind of doormat)? It didn't work. Get divorced and then move on with your life. If you have view everything from the perspective of "getting your revenge," then you're just a broken, childish person. You're just bored and writing these things to get a reaction, right? You can't be that cold and callous!! You should reread the original post. Her husband slunk out like a dog that peed on the rug!! A real man faces his wife and tells her he is leaving! And he doesn't take half of the money they have because he left his children there to be taken care of!! Nobody has to stay in a relationship if they don't want to be there, but they do have to have a backbone and explain their actions. They weren't in the "contract" alone and even when breaking a real contract, of any kind, an explanation is required! Nope, I'm not trolling. Guys don't have the ridiculous cultural baggage associated with getting married that women buy into. I guarantee you none of us spent hours looking at dresses or wedding magazines, or discussing with our friends what our ideal wedding weight and hairstyle would be, and oh my goodness that tuxedo is just the one for my dream wedding/coronation of the prince with swans and our favorite flowers and dressing all of our friends in hideous outfits so as not to outshine "our special day." We just don't buy into the cr4p. Marriage is a legal contract, plain and simple, and like any contract, it can be broken. There may (or may not) be penalties for doing so (get a pre-nuptial agreement if you're not stupid). When you have additional entanglements (like property or children) it gets more of a pain in the @$$ to do so, but you can break the contract at any time. And really, there is no explanation required... "I don't want to be married to you anymore" is all that needs to be said (or implied). Be an adult and deal with it. Save the whining for your shrink or obsequious girlfriends.

No children for me, thanks. I want to (continue) enjoy(-ing) my life, not endure it. "When all is said and done, usually more has been said than done. "

Marriage is just a contract; contracts get broken all the time. What do you think divorce is? Also, relationships can be ended by either party. You don't need the other person's consent to end it. Having children complicates it, but in the end if you want to leave, you can leave. (Just expect a huge load of cr4p dealing with the children aspect of it, legally...)

The worst part of the new year is all the short-termers who fill up the gym and spend more time on their phones than working out.

I love the Bariatric Advantage chocolate Peanut Butter chews. "When all is said and done, usually more has been said than done. "

I've been hesitant about posting some things here simply because my surgeon's practice is a lot less conservative than most of the plans I've read about. But eventually, I've been okay posting as long as I say "my surgeon wants me to do XX". People should be listening to their own surgeons and not fishing for permission to behave badly here. If you're not going to listen to your surgeon, why are you even considering surgery? Obviously doing what YOU think is best has gotten you morbidly obese and sick. YOU are not a good source of behavior. Listen to your surgeon instead.

Yes. "When all is said and done, usually more has been said than done. "

Contact your surgeon's office. This is basic information and you should already have been instructed in this. "When all is said and done, usually more has been said than done. "

I have friends who are proof that the best form of contraception is their personality. "When all is said and done, usually more has been said than done. "

Men suck.

Got all my baking done for the season, and didn't have a taste of any of it. It simply wasn't appealing. "When all is said and done, usually more has been said than done. "

Hey fellas, has anyone noticed a change in their facial hair since surgery? I've had several friends ask if I dyed my goatee, and I have to admit that it seems to have a hell of a lot less gray than three weeks ago... Anyone else see any changes? Thickness, ability to grow, etc.?

My surgery was November 29 and I am exactly 3 weeks out today. I've lost 23# (30#, if you count the 7# of fluids I gained from the IV!) and I am eating real food without any problems. I've had no pain and no nausea or vomiting. It has been the easiest thing I've ever done. I'm off basically all of my diabetes meds (including 2 types of insulin), and almost ready to go off of the remaining temporary meds, which will leave me taking only an OTC allergy pill. Surgery was the best decision I've ever made. "When all is said and done, usually more has been said than done. "

I take a stool softener with my morning pill and add Miralax to my first bottle of Water each day. I also take 2 fiber gummies as a post-dinner dessert. No problems with this regimen, and I'm very regular. "When all is said and done, usually more has been said than done. "

Well, Bueno is just another chain restaurant, so no espanol necesito. But it's a higher quality of chain TexMex than The Bell. "Quality" and "TexMex" in the same statement. Does not compute. "When all is said and done, usually more has been said than done. "

Looking great, Ed! "When all is said and done, usually more has been said than done. "

My phone tracks steps automatically; I don't see the need for a FitBit at all. Just more status symbol tech toys. "When all is said and done, usually more has been said than done. "

That I would feel so damn good all the time. "When all is said and done, usually more has been said than done. "

... or has there been an influx of the Rabid on the boards this past week? I've put more holy rollers on my ignore list this week than I have since when I joined in May through November. Here's a clue, if you have to thank your imaginary friend on every single post you make, you are NOT a well-adjusted, functioning member of society, you are a huge damn mess of mental illness. Anyone else noticing this? "When all is said and done, usually more has been said than done. "

I gained 7# on the day of surgery from the IV fluids, but I had already lost all of that and more by the time I left the hospital two days later. "When all is said and done, usually more has been said than done. "
