I think a lot of us (me) are doing the same which is why you only see my “good” stuff in this thread. No one wants to see my meal of kettlechips, cheez it’s and mini ice cream cones. How many more no cook meals can I show before people realize I really don’t cook anymore?🤔 🤣

Egg Rolls before and after I intended to eat both but the second one tasted “off” so I stopped.

I just googled Quarkbällchen and these did have an “added yogurt” texture to them.

But seriously … brunch with my BF Market veggie sandwich with chicken white bean soup and two of these gingerbread donuts. If I had to guess cals I would overestimate at 1000 cals

Joining the fancy dining trend! 🤣

If you have any indications of GERD a surgery will likely not suggest DS but RNY. Before you go that route, have you asked your team what else can be done? Ask about other (nutritionist, pharmacological) options.

I agree with @sillykitty. I’ve personally seen his liposuction and BBL work but I haven’t (personally) seen anyone with TT from him. Also he’ll reject patients he does not find ideal with very little notice. So unless you have a prior consultation with him (not a coordinator) it’s a gamble.

Yesterday was rainy (hurricane remnants) so I made my ultimate comfort food: Dal with (store bought) naan

I would never have guessed that these are vegan dishes!

It’s my 5th surgiversary (and I almost forgot to post about it). I wish more people from when I joined were still around but most are long gone. I am grateful to everyone that sticks around and recorded their progress long term, so I am trying to do the same.

I would like to join club crusty bread.

I think it has a wonderful personality 🤣

The bread is sooooo pretty

Congratulations!!!

You’ve waited so long for this!!! It’s normal to be anxious/nervous/scared. But congratulations in advance ❤️

It was good but no one wanted these leftovers. Also I have to confess, I will take leftovers but rarely will I eat them. Where is my support group?

Thai sweet and sour crispy chicken Ok I know I’m not going crazy. This is not a normal portion size. This is not including the 1.5 cups of rice that came with it (no thanks)

I have! I went through a phase with these (maybe a year ago 🤔) then I had a hard time finding them so I started making my own (quickly grew tired of doing that) I might do it again next year.

Thanks! I do eat a range of things but honestly I make a lot of substitutions when possible like: regular bread when eating out but always keto bread at home (never was going to give bread up), regular fries when out vs airfryer fries at home, and yesterday I ate grilled chicken tenders vs fried tenders because the calories made more sense (even though I wanted the fried ones). Oh and I am dead serious about picking desserts over salads when the calories are on par 🤣 so I do watch calories (and sugar) more than what appears to be the “healthier” choice.

Thank you! I get why people leave. After a while there’s not much more to say (unless you have a complication) but I stick around to keep myself honest. I update my weight every single time it fluctuates.

Thank you! I’m trying my hardest to stay out of the advice business these days. I just want to relax in my VET stage. 🤣

Now that’s how you make an entrance!

Agreed.

Either all portion sizes are out of control or I’m the problem.

I only need to take a few doses when it “feels” like I’m going to have a UTI and it’s gone. I haven’t had a full blown UTI in years since I’ve started using D-mannose.
