    I have no clue what material itโ€™s made out of because I removed the tag when altering it a year ago. Iโ€™m going to assume itโ€™s polyester/poly urethane but it is very soft and doesnโ€™t feel like plastic at all.

    Guess who decided to cook and it was a total fail ๐Ÿคฃ Tarta De Santiago (keto version) 4 eggs 2โ„3 cup (5 oz.) erythritol lemon zest or flavor 2 cups almond flour 2 tbsp powdered erythritol for decorating Either Iโ€™m just not used to erythritol anymore or i just never liked it. Next time I will try a different sweetener.

    Fat cells have a โ€œmemoryโ€

    An interesting article about โ€œFat Memoryโ€ https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-024-03614-9 Key points: โ€ขFat cells have a โ€˜memoryโ€™ of obesity hinting at why itโ€™s hard to keep weight off. โ€ขLong-lasting changes to the cellsโ€™ epigenome are linked to a decline in their function. โ€ขFor fat cells, the shift in gene activity seems to render them incapable of their normal function. โ€ขEven weight-loss surgery did not budge that pattern. โ€ขThe research is ongoing as โ€œItโ€™s not yet a causal link, Itโ€™s correlation. โ€ฆ Weโ€™re working on this.โ€

    Anytime! I hope these posts/articles can help someone in someway.
  6. You have NOT failed. Please stop catastrophizing. You are only 7 weeks post op. Super duper early. There are literally more options now than ever before to aid you on this journey. Tell your team you are struggling and need help. Itโ€™s very likely you need more than just the sleeve and white knuckled willpower but what that looks like is ultimately up to you. Youโ€™ve come this far already, so you know youโ€™re committed enough to make lifestyle changes. Please keep going. โค๏ธ

    I am also team Mary Berry ๐Ÿคฃ but ultimately I gave up on TGBBO because I found everyone very very whiny. Now if you watch American cooking shows, I find Ree Drummond (The pioneer woman) annoying.

    Semaglutide shots

    Here is some info: https://www.uclahealth.org/news/article/semaglutide-weight-loss-what-you-need-know#:~:text=After 68 weeks%2C half of,nearly a third lost 20%. https://www.nejm.org/doi/10.1056/NEJMoa2032183 https://www.nature.com/articles/s41591-024-02996-7 You should know rather quickly (a month or so) if itโ€™s working for you. Speak with your specialist about all of your concerns.

    Semaglutide shots

    All good questions for the specialist (Endocrinologist?) But this is a long term med and you should plan accordingly!

    Eggs in a basket! I made these for my BF but I may eat the same thing later. What do you call this dish (eggs cooked in a hole in bread)?

    Hi Hunnybunny @Starwarsandcupcakes how are you doing?
  15. Well thatโ€™s unfortunate.๐Ÿ˜”
  16. Honestly Iโ€™m more worried about the female gaze. What are you planning now that you believe I am the competition? Anyone noticed a shift in the females they interact with now vs then? Bonus: link to a (long form) video that analyzes body fat and perceived attractiveness
