Prayers up! Safe surgeries and smooth recoveries

Why? I like food pics, I don't have any food temptations. Someone could eat right next to me while I'm fasting, which happened, I could care less...

Oh it's not a problem unless I'm traveling in NYC, Paris, etc. You know major $hi++y cities that make you basically pay to use the restrooms if there even is one lol So I eat and stay close to place with restrooms no big deal (it's not explosive) but I was traveling for a few hrs without a chance to stop so I knew it would be a problem if I ate during that time which coincided with non fast hrs. So I screwed myself. Live and learn. Otherwise it's just quicker digestive flow and I absolutely love it. I know exactly when things go in and out. (TMI?) It has improved after VSG and even more after IF. I enjoy it most of the time, I wasn't this regular before.

I lowkey received something similar from the psychologist! when I didn't understand one of the questions, rather couldn't answer it he told me to join this site... Then he gave his approval referral.

I could be wrong, I am often lol

I'm not addicted to food either, these journeys are not all the same...

I believe it does, don't quote me on this but isn't that the issue with people who have slow/low (digestive) motility

You should be! But check in with your NUT/team sometimes...

Post sleeve and even more so post IF I'll survive, but now I know I'm not crazy

So I was thinking, am I being ridiculous not eating at all today for fear of not being able to make it to the bathroom? So I purchased a nut& raisin mix and I had seaweed snacks on hand. No big deal, those are harmless right? Wrong. I wish I didn't eat 😖

I was in constant pain for about 2.5 weeks after surgery. You heal when you heal. Sleep and low stress helps. Constant pain aggravated by movement made it seem like I was recovering slower than I should have been I took pain meds as needed and sometimes I toughed it out. Eventually it does just get better, corny as it sounds

Enjoy.

Great post

I forgot one of the best NSV comfortably using an airplane restroom on a transatlantic flight!!!

So I guess I'll count it as HIIT on a fast day 😎

Squatting vs sitting if you catch my drift...

I'm in NYC, the struggle is real...

I'm too lazy to try to find a decent food and clean bathroom where I'll be... If I eat , I'll need to use the bathroom shortly after. Lol, I'll eat tomorrow.

Do you think they mean for people who have not had metabolic surgeries? I've seen people like that do it without counting cals, just eating until satisfied,(they may eat differently then obese or once upon a time obese people) their metabolisms handled it well. IDK, what do y'all think?

Forgot to post this here ... Cheesecake! I chose the low carb sugar free version and it was great!

Busy travel day, I don't think there will be any meals for me as my non fasting hours fall during my travel hours. So modified water& tea fasting all day (I use stevia & protein shake if I want throughout fasting and non fasting hours, it works for me) I will use the PP as creamer if I want any (sometimes I like hot tea English style and iced tea Thai style). But these babies will be in rotation, mostly water and green tea. Maybe a coffee if there's a decent roaster where I am in Manhattan...

Despicable...

Call them directly and find out, but ask specific questions about approval/denial, waiting period, out of pocket cost, etc. Also ask about referrals to surgeons.
