Vacation!!! My absolute favorite shawl that I take on every vacation for cooler nights.

Even in the landscape of GLP-1 weight loss, I would choose surgical intervention again. As others have said, the choice of your team will make a huge difference especially if dealing with complications. I had a mildly eventful journey which included a needing a revision from VSG to RNY but my physicians treated me well, took my concerns seriously and in a timely manner. I was never dismissed or ignored and I think that made a big difference in how I felt about the challenges I faced. I’m currently 8+ years post initial surgery/6+ years post revision with a maintained goal weight and no complaints.

I LOVE a good belgian waffle, I made one this week and forgot to take pics!

It’s essentially a higher dose Rybelsus. I don’t personally know anyone taking the oral version because it’s a daily commitment vs weekly but I imagine if a person doesn’t have access to refrigeration or like injections, this would be the best way to go. I guess the real question is how this affects our specific population since it relies on absorption in the digestive tract. https://time.com/7342274 Good luck!

I totally understand!

$40? Which ingredients is the most expensive? Truffle oil?

Pancakes and eggs! No calorie tracking for this one because I forgot 😆 Unfortunately I’m completely over eggs for the foreseeable future.

French Toast! It’s always delicious 🤤

Boiled eggs on English muffin covered in cheese. I only ate half. I still have mild egg aversion where some days it’s fine and other days it’s not. But almost always I have to hide the egg from myself 🤣

I really liked Baritastic. It’s been a while since I’ve checked out new apps so maybe something better has come out.

Happy to participate!!! In a few days I will hit my 8yr anniversary of my original WLS (VSG). My journey had been excellent in my opinion even with minor inconveniences. I realized today that I don’t really think about my weight anymore. It’s on the periphery of thoughts but it is not a focal point. That feels pretty awesome Also I’m a new gardener and a long time plant parent so here’s one of my babies 🤣

Congratulations and great outcome!

Something new! Black beans, avocado, corn and quesadilla.

The girl screamed “OH MY GOD”. They offered a refund and freebies but I didn’t want anything else 😭

Rotisserie chicken, mashed potatoes and peas. My food choices are very boring lately. BUT I went to a bakery a few weeks ago on a trip and ordered a slice of cake. Well I take a ton of pics but when I look closer, there are tiny bugs everywhere. So I am playing it safe these days.

Vacation in DC, stopped at bakery for tea. Matcha latte, coffee cake, raspberry tea cake, and linzer cookie

I think early on every significant change was more meaningful so I probably would have defended a label size/scale weight more than now. Now whatever size fits is the size I wear, idc if it is a Japanese XXXXXXXXXXXXXL 🤣

Have you finally been stabilized? Your situation seems fairly rare but I hope it all finally works out for you.

Chicken, couscous and mixed vegetables I’m still not ready to bake yet, so I grabbed baked chicken tenders from the deli counter and the market. Surprisingly this was large enough to make into two meals.

I love hearing about long term outcomes!

Ask to be tested for SIBO or at least a stool test.

I 100% go by fit vs tag size because vanity sizing and non standardized sizing are a problem. I can wear a whole host of sizes. It’s really random. Also taking your own measurements and comparing to measured sizes is the best way to go when shopping online.

Salmon pâté ball with crackers. All these years later and I’m still making this.

French Toast! I ALWAYS use zero carb bread for this recipe and it’s always perfect 😍

I would consult with your weight management team to see what they think.
