Oh dear... Please relax... Sleeved Dec. 19, 2016... Life will be better for you. I do got out to eat with my family. The only difference is that I do not order. I get to taste test everything from my family's plate. Lol I take a small puzzle book or note pad with me and I am the game leader while they eat. You just have to find a normal for you. Be creative.

Well I'm 3 yrs and 6 months out and I take 40 mg Omeprazole twice a day. I just had a MRI done and I am going to be taking this for awhile. No matter what I do I have it. I wake up with it even if I just drink Water. Have had it every since the surgery. The pills help but it can be a pain and does keep me up at night without the pills.

Not that anyone cares lol, but i've been driving myself crazy trying to find a Cookies and cream Protein Shake that actually taste like a chick fil a oreo milkshake. (Because that was my fat kid all time favorite guilty pleasure lol)
I've tasted just about every disgusting cookies and cream shake and i've been disappointed until now. Surprising it wasn't anything fancy or expensive.
The GNC pro 100% whey Protein Powder mixed with fair life fat free milk gives me life. Like i'm literally in fat kid heaven.
It works out to about 37g Protein per serving.

I told nobody except my live-in BF. I'm extremely private and prefer not to discuss health issues. I told work I needed to have surgery (they can't ask what kind) and took 2 weeks PTO. I was worried about having to answer a bunch of questions from friends & family but it's amazing how little people seem to pay attention to what I'm eating when out to dinner, etc. Only waitstaff seem concerned and I usually say "I had a big lunch" or "I'm looking forward to yummy leftovers for lunch tomorrow." And even though I've lost almost 75 lbs in 5 months nobody seems shocked nor asks a lot of questions. I would advise newbies to be very selective with whom you tell, because you can't un-tell afterwards and there is no guarantee that folks won't be concerned, etc. We have lived most of our lives battling weight issues and we are the ones that have done the extensive research -- others who are not in the same position may simply not understand our choice.
