I'm thankful for family & friends but I'm super thankful for a very kind BF that provides me the space to be ABSOLUTELY ridiculous and still likes me 😂

It's completely up to you unless your team wants you to weigh in at home. I personally didn't own a scale until about 2 yrs after WLS (I'm only 2.9 yrs post WLS) because I wanted to focus on other things. I would only weigh at doctor visits. But in maintenance it helps me to stay accountable.

Black bean quesadilla on Low carb tortilla with light sour cream

Nice gentle reminder

This one is really cute! I used to have a rice cooker that had a separate layer for vegetable steaming. It was very convenient. Does yours have that feature?

For breakfast a Turkey+cheese+salad+kimchi wrap on a low carb tortilla I ate about 60% then got bored (full) 🤣 Boring but tasty salad for lunch today

I will be 3 yrs post op from VSG in November & 16 months from RNY conversion in November How about you?

I've had it with cream cheese once but no bagel seasoning ! Why didn't I think of that 🧐

It gets better in time. Tryunflavored protein in sugar free pudding or low sugar greek yogurt🏆

Vegetarian burrito (red bean+ mushrooms+ cheese) on low carb tortillas with a side of light sour cream & avocado I'm stuffed. Before and After

These babies (minus 1) went straight to the freezer

That was the first one I tried, honestly I prefer the wheat.

Score!

Really REALLY good and easy going down ♥️

This meant "enjoy the decadence, cheers"

It has been easier than I expected. Extremely early on I would order just liquids & full liquids (soup, water, tea, ice tea, coffee, yogurt, etc.) Later into my journey I ordered normal menu items but healthier (unless burgers, salads, protein/veg only combo, etc) but there would always be a lot of leftovers. Sometimes I simply order 2 sides or off the kids menu. Now I order normal portion sizes of the healthiest things I can find on menu and share with whoever I am with, always asking they choose something we both like. Often I will just get the dessert while the other person gets the entree and have a bit of both.

I would add having medical issues and using certain medications can contribute to weight gain that's hard to mitigate. (it's well documented that meds, steroids and psych, cause massive weight gains in a very short period of time) Congratulations on your new journey ♥️

Me either 😅 I'm a coach kind of girl especially now that I am comfortable in all seats, but all of my international flights had amazing meals no matter where you were seated.

Perhaps consider creating an advertisement for this and pass it along through the Bariatric center you went through Good Luck ♥️

Fiber waffle w/ avocado and burger So I made my BF traditional waffles for a breakfast sandwich this morning (from scratch) and I decided I wanted a waffle too. I wasn't going ruin my day by eating a traditional waffle because I haven't since RNY conversion so I had no clue how I would react. I decided to make a fiber waffle (NOT chaffle 🤮) to use a a vehicle for avocado. Added a thin strip of leftover burger from dinner. It was really decent. Made like traditional scratch made waffles but subbed fiber powder for flour. VID_20200930_095436.mp4

Deep Incisions tend feel like this for me too. Congratulations on a successful Revision ♥️

Thanks ♥️, I eased out of it with just liquids then light fare. As always (on Yom Kippur) I was not hungry while fasting.

Noooooooo! I haven't been shopping, because I'm never anywhere that requires new clothes, so I missed out on these
