Didnt make my goal, but very close. This challenge was fun to do. It let me see my weekly loss, which i had not been paying attention to because i weigh every day.

Four and a half months out from surgery... This morning, I noticed something weird above my thigh getting out of the shower. Kind of a lump, it looked like.
I was worried for a minute then I noticed it was on the other side, too. It was my hip bone. It has never been visible before in my entire adult life.

I've seen a few people present this way.
Maybe I should emulate:
Jan 10, 2018: 308.4 pounds = FINAL
Jan 03, 2018: 313.3
Dec 27, 2107: 319.2
Dec 20, 2107: 320.9
Dec 13, 2107: 322.4
Dec 06, 2107: 325.8
Nov 29, 2107: 329.4
Nov 22, 2107: 332.7
Nov 15, 2017: 338.0
Goal: 304
While I missed my goal by 4.4 pounds (or 2.0 kg) , I'm pleased that I went so well over the xmas-New Year period.
Thanks for running this @The New Kel

Ahh that's a bummer! There are certainly other options for vegetarians. Creating and providing recommendations specific to different diet preferences like vegetarianism is key, this is very helpful thank you!

I really like my nutrionalist, she is very friendly and nice. I do wish she had more info for me as a vegetarian. She gave me tons of packets of info and sample meals, but nothing vegetarian specific. Her main advice on it was that i would be supplementing with shakes and bars for much longer than a meat eater.

@little green, i didnt use a specific recipe. I cooked 2 cups of lentils in low sodium vegetable stock, them sauteed up my vegetables in a pan with some oregano, parsley, garlic and thyme. Combined the lentils and veggies and uses whole wheat flour to make it stick together a little better..(no eggs). After that i places in 12 muffin cups, squirted ketchup on top and baked at 450 for about 15-20 mins

I applaud your commonsense cooking ... just do it.
My wife (after ten years married) still asks, "How can you make such nice meals if you don't use a recipe?"
I just say to her that they are things I've tried before and made minor adjustments to based on ingredients available.
"But how?" she asks, "Mum and I always use recipes or buy a meal base and add meat."

"Face it," I say, "you married a kitchen genius who seldom has a poor outcome." At this, she #facepalms!

Good evening y’all. It’s a chilly 30 something outside and a great day for some vegan chili!!! 😁
I used a medium salsa (probably should have used mild) it had quite the kick. I also kind of overmeasure my spices on purpose, but it’s all so tasty. I ate some with a few crackers as well. I actually took pics today. Enjoy!

Nearly 7 months after surgery I am down 107 lbs and crossed into the "One"derland!!
Feeling super optimistic about 2018 [emoji123][emoji16][emoji123]

I would prefer it to be discreet. Everyone in my house knows about my surgery, but i dont need the mail lady knowing. I only told my close family and would prefer to keep it that way.
