    I was ready to eat the squirrel...

    ha ha too funny. We actually just got a road kill one last weekend that my mother in law hit lol. Then my son got one this year. We told him he shot bambi is was so little yet. . My husband hasn't gotten any and he is thinking of giving up hunting he said he is getting too old for it and the cold is starting to affect him lol. But our whole family loves venison. We had so much deer balogna last year that we handed a whole bunch out to friends and family this year. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    I was ready to eat the squirrel...

    Lol. I have heard they're good. I don't mind killing deer. I love venison. My husband and I were actually looking the other day at the nutritional values. Deer steak is great for Protein a lot better then any beef steak. However I love deer balogna but it's very high in calories and very little protein. I wanna cry over that. My kids and hubby get it all to themselves. Oh well life goes on. Deer Jerky is good for me tho. And deer burger is a lot healthier then beed I didn't check it against turkey yet tho.

    I was ready to eat the squirrel...

    They are fun to watch, as long as they aren't costing me money (or sleep). Our dog Jester goes insane when he sees one. I almost hurt myself laughing the one time he fell down the stairs trying to run, bark, and look up in the air at one all at the same time. They are, and very tasty protein at that. omg my dog matilda is the same way Che will sit at the bottom of a tree for over a half he just waiting for it to come back down its funny.

    Have you tried a Simply Fit Board

    My mother-in-law bought one of those and she says that every time she goes to use it it moves as she's twisting on it and it does not stay still and then she has to stop and get off and move it back into the center of the room and it's just a vicious cycle however on the positive parts of it she said she can feel the burn but when you're stopping all the time to be able to move it back to the center of the room you're selling yourself down and get it and which fact you're not burning all the calories that you could be now with that being said maybe she's using it wrong I have not tried it I'm afraid I might break it LOL HW 289 CW 249 Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    Sodas

    yes I think you're misunderstanding her tone because I don't find anything impulsive about answering a question truthfully impulsive to me is going from reading a book to hey!! let's go jump off a bridge into the river LOL so no I don't find it impulsive her putting her input on a subject. But I think you mis understood completely and maybe read into it too much. Hope you have a wonderful day and lots of luck on ur journey!! nothing but peace and guidance!!

    Sodas

    i don't think she was trying to drill U down at all but just trying to have people see the truth. Tone is something that cannot be read through someone typing.

  15. I had my surgery a couple days before Thanksgiving I came home from the hospital the day before Thanksgiving I had rny. I went to our Thanksgiving gathering at my mother-in-law's house I stayed the entire time I drank a half a cup of turkey broth well everybody else ate. I socialize and everything else I was fine you will do great and be fine. And as somebody pointed out to me while everybody else is complaining about the weed that they gained from the holidays you will be glad about the weight you're losing during the holidays. It's all but normal for your husband to be worried but believe me you will be OK and eventually he will see that this is the best thing for your health. I was lucky my husband my in-laws and my parents were very much on board with us and new that within the last few years my health was at a downward spiral and it was time for me to change my life and this was my chance. I completely quit smoking cold turkey after smoking for well over 20 years. I started exercising I started eating healthier I stopped drinking anything soda related or anything sugary and pretty much just drink Water and then I had RNY this was the best decision I've ever made in my life although I'm only a few weeks out from my surgery I could not feel better about myself and the changes that I've made in my life. And mainly because from here on out I know that my life is just going to get better and for the first time I don't have to worry about leaving my children alone because I'm working on getting myself healthy again. Just make sure that your husband understands that you're aware of his worries and that you appreciate him worrying about you don't just write his worries off because they are valid ones and it could just be that he's afraid that he will lose you because you lose weight you just have to keep reassuring him of that and that he's what u want. I put it to my husband like this you were with me through my chunky stage through my fat stage through my OB stage and through my morbidly obese stage why would I leave you when I'm at my healthy state and I can do more with you. I know that you love me for me not for who I want to be. Because at the end of the day if I put weight back one but I have a health problem or anything goes wrong I know my husband's going to be there for me your regardless of what it is but if I go meet somebody off the street I'll because I feel thinner and I feel prettier one the grass isn't greener on the other side and two I don't know if that person will be by my side if something happened where my husband I know will be there and I know he loves me and I know I love him!!!! For me specifically this wasn't about getting dinner or being prettier but about getting healthier for my kids and my family so that I know that my kids never have to worry about losing their mom at an early age. I wish you the best of luck and like I said just make sure that your husband knows that his worries are valid and that you understand why he's worried and make sure he knows how much you love him and appreciate his input on things. I wish u the best of luck you got this!!! Keep on truckin!!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Lmao weight* not weed lol Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    I don't get it.

    Why do people risk their lives driving drunk or too fast? Why do people continue smoking after one of their legs had to be amputated? Why do people go out for a drink the day after they came out of rehab? Why does a woman get beaten up by her husband and goes back for more? --- I don't know. And I can't understand. Maybe it's because I never walked in their shoes. Or it's just life. eewl pick me pick me I know the answer "It's that we are are human and we all make mistakes" lmao it's called rediculous choices and people who have no care in the world of what they're choices do to others or themselves.

  22. Hav you tried biotene mouth wash it helps with dry mouth and salads are not considered soft foods bc the ate leaf and hard to swallow. Everyone's surgeons guidelines are different tho so I would suggest you asking ur surgeon or your NUT. I know I cannot have salad till I'm on a full regular foods diet. Best of luck sounds like your doing awesome!!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    Help! I ate real food!

    Yes I believe my post I said best wishes and best of luck as well it's not that we're hating were worried about what's causing her to do this and why she is doing it not putting anybody down but given them honest device and if giving advice makes people use that type of language in your post I feel sorry I truly do. Some people just can't take constructive criticism some Can to me constructive criticism always work best for me maybe it doesn't work best for all but regardless of how you spell the words that you mean we all know what they mean and when I say what a mouth I mean what a mouth there is some constructive criticism for you. And I hope by the grace of God that your parents don't go on the site because if that was my kid talking like that I would be embarrassed and ashamed all over someone giving advice at that. Have a very merry xmas and best of wish to the all!!! Have a blessed day and a happy one at that!!! Stay classy not trashy!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
