The chicken was delicious by all standards, made with Olive and macadamia oil. I just want nuts 😥

The yogurt was amazing Abe, give it a try! It may just surprise you

I’m currently giving you the side eye.

This is a thought provoking question. It makes me think back to my younger, thinner days when even then I was never happy with the way my body looked - if only I knew that it was all down hill from there! And now that I have worked from being morbidly obese to reaching my goal, I am wondering if I should lose more because maybe a size 6 will be better than a size 8. I think many of us, especially women, need to explore our body image issues a little deeper. What does it take to feel satisfied with being you? Does the weight loss make us happy, or do we need to focus on our inner happiness and just being happy with who we are? Difficult questions I think.

I am sure all my lumps and bumps will not look anything like what my mind pictures! My mind just lies all the time to me anyway...lol

BUT I am already pretty happy with being able to FEEL lighter on my feet, fit into smaller clothes, etc. I think I will be satisfied, and especially after some 'nip/tuck', more like 'slash/extract/add/stretch/stitch' lol but anyway even that will not make all the internal parts 18 again, so any improvement will be just fine.

I've recently been thinking the same thing. I'm 30 lbs away from goal, so it is feeling more real. Will I be happy at 140? Will that be too high or too low? Where are these additional 30 lbs come from? I want to keep my butt, but lose my tummy, but what if the opposite happens?

I know the feeling. I did some major online shopping with all the sales around black friday. In tops I wear anywhere between a S-L. In pants from 6-10. But I must own the world's most elastic panties, because -100+ lbs, I still wear the same undies!

Absolutely.

I think it's a good example for the pendulum coming to the middle after having swayed into the opposite direction first (obese - skinny).

I see so many people on here giving the impression of being down right obsessed.

I couldn't find the video. Do you have a link?

My Team ok'd pizza because I was on Holiday. Not something to eat while at home 😌

I know! But I didn't want to give anyone false hope that results will be similar to my journey ...

But

I left the research in sillykittys hair loss threads

A bunch of different ones

This is a good tip. I didn't know about LLysine. I am adding it to my list of items to buy. Thanks!

Very true

I would love it if someone called me paper thin 🤣

Me too...Congrats!!!

I cut the dress so short, You could see my childhood memories...

Oh come on! Why not? "It'll be fun," they said! "It's great cardio," they said!

LOLOL on "childhood memories"!

I think it/them AND most especially you, look adorable and hot all at the same time and I don't even bat from that side of the plate (not that there's anything wrong with that). Flaunt it girlie! Cuz you've got it!

Hmmmmm Maybe I'll go tightless in the spring & summer!

That's fascinating!

AGREED!

I needed a raincoat yesterday and my husband grabbed one of my son's old ones. Score.............

Crazy right!

I just had to order new layering cami's, because my old ones were too baggy. Size, medium! Crazy!

Same, I'd likely be doing a world tour

Hahahaha

Ran across this on Instagram. It's a WLS surgery related meetup. Website on the photo/flyer. Apparently it's pretty big, they just did one in Orlando. Not sure if you knew about it.

Thanks! I didn't know about that, likely because I'm not a WLS page in the gram. I used to follow for a while but i got bored by it 😂

Me too! So sick of wearing a winter coat that’s three sizes too big. Supposed to be 80 degrees on Monday.

warm/hot weather = no trouble drinking more kathy

Hahaaha. Good day sunshine!! Good day sunshine! Good day sunshine!!!

Is that how it works? I eat protein bars most mornings. One of the few solid foods I can eat. Are you saying they're really sliders?

For me they appear to be, I wasn't big on them until recently so that may be a factor, but Im counting them amoung my high calories low restriction food groups and I want to monitor how often I eat these items.

Oh, ok. I only eat one a day and always count the calories. I'm really not a breakfast person, so they let me hit the ground running.
