Weight loss stall, holiday gain - KETO?
GreenTealael replied to miss_smiles's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
You could... But honestly going back to clean basic eating will do you a world of better because no gimmicks and you'll reintroduce the habits you need for long term not just 3 days. I suggest a pantry/kitchen purge Yup. Toss the junk if you have any. Break out your surgery materials and read them again. Recommit to the journey, stick to it, be flexible , forgiving and find sustainable methods to stay on plan If you need a fun way to jump back in consider this challenge -
Jan. 10th: On plan eating: repetitive I eat a lot of yogurt. I'm lazy. I buy 6-8 giant tubs at a time. The plain Greek doubles for cooking also. This is my favorite recipes. Lemon (stevia) Matcha yogurt with gluten free everything granola First meal of the day

Listen.... I don't grown my own salads or chickens either, you're doing great!

Confessional - Lets post our cheats/confessions/etc so others can see that we are all human
GreenTealael replied to Matt Z's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Alright. I need everyone to know. Not crazy when I talk about water quality. I went away and didn't reup my supply of good stuff so when I returned home I had to drink tap( boil and filter) Massive heart burn all the way into my esophagus. I thought coincidence because of course it's not water causing reflux, so i employed the scientific method, continued the research and sure enough, It's the F'ing water. Also, I ate whatever I wanted on vacay... So there a confession. -
Oooooh enjoy!!! BTW the protein I enjoyed wayyyy to much ($$$) is Isopure. Your girl bought that 14 months ago and is still using it for special occasions LOL ( but will buy Antarctic waters and Japanese teas daily, priorities...)

Flying after sleeve...what’s allowed on the plane?
GreenTealael replied to Letsgetgoing2018's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Start practicing. It's TSA dependant. If they don't allow you to bring it through unchecked you'll have to throw it away. Other options is find something commercially available like vitamin water zero, Snapple diet that you can tolerate, it'll likely be in the airport stores. Or drink plain water. -
Tips on minimizing excess skin
GreenTealael replied to Sarah_Marsy's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
It's really going to be an individual genetic lifestyle based thing. Some hit the lottery and have zero excess no matter what, while some work hard and still need plastics Tip: If you can save for plastics and if you don't need it you'll have money to invest in a cool start up, well water projects in a developing country, new business, house/condo, micro loan charities or world trip... Safe Journey 🎈 -

I walk longer/faster than everyone I know/meet without trying. I have a new urgency to get places (on foot) because my feet and body no longer hurt when I walk now... This means so much to me. I didn't even realize it until children were tired of me 😂.

Intermittent Fasting Daily Menu/Results/Accountability
GreenTealael replied to FluffyChix's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
Mostly Friday night to Saturday night/Sunday morning no true IF for me. Too many food related occasions that are time restricted. So why should I be a ****** about? I just roll with it. Also this is usually when I eat and drink at the same time (very tiny amount)... Can't be altered. -
All those beautiful hands helping!!!!

How often do you get on the scale months out vs years out?
GreenTealael replied to Healthy_life's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I barely weighted during the losing phase, at 1 yr post I got a scale for maintenance and only check my weight when I feel a gain. (My wrists, don't laugh, tell me first. I have a bracelet that I never remove or change the set rung, so if it's too I know something is up and I check with the scale next) in the years to come it will be for accountability. I will also measure, take photos and use clothing as guages of recidivism. But none of that for me honestly... Coincidentally I was in the store Five Below last getting some leggings I and they have digital glass scales for $5... -
Only A Few Active Members
GreenTealael replied to Walter.Sobchak's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Yes there seems to be a just a few, and it's a cycle. The active few from previous years disappear, new ones replace them. Don't worry eventually everyone graduates... -
Anyone remember the scene from the movies Gattaca where Thurman covertly tests Hawke's DNA for diseases, me mental illness, compatibility, etc and decided to pursue him based on the results... I'm gonna need that technology to appear soon IJS
