Tylenol is NOT an nsaid ! I had gastric sleeve yesterday and so much dangerous information out here! I’ve been told probably 100 times only tylenol by my Drs and nurses.

check with your office first and see what you have already paid for. examply my dietician and mental health is included for life.
My checks up to 13 months is included.
and then i would have them run your insurance and see what coverage you have to stay with them, if not, they can refer you to someone that has coverage.

I would recommend calling your insurance company and asking for their assistance in locating in-network providers. They should be able to help you switch doctors if you need to. Your current doctor may be in-network, so make sure you ask that as well.

YES, I forgot about that salad dressing, I think I have a bottle in my fridge. I'm going to make some chicken when I get home, I will cut them up and eat them as a snack. I feel like I'm starting all over again, and in some ways, I am. Is there a such thing as "good" fats vs. "bad" fats? Right now, my fat intake is sitting at 56g. My body doesn't have an issue with it, but I don't want to hinder my weight loss potential either. Well, I'll correct that...my gall bladder being out, does give me issues with fat. But I don't know how much fat has to be consumed to get to that point.

I feel like what I used to enjoy as a snack, I now have to kick most out. Dried banana chips w/ some peanut butter - Cherries - mixed nuts w/ chocolate and raisins- etc.
Working with a group of Dr's isn't easy, there is ALWAYS so many damn goodies. I kept saying "One piece will not hurt..." "Oh, just on the weekends, I'll have a burger ..ice cream..pizza..you know how the rest goes. Over several months, it sure does hurt...it's about 40 to 50 pound hurt.

I hit a full stall after about a year and a half, working out really helps. I'm very loyal to that, it'll work for you!!

I must agree w/ the above, it depends on your intake and how your body responds to it. Depending on what I ate, when I went wild and broke all rules, I would dump first thing in the morning Since losing my gallbladder, fat is what get's me.

I missed you too, I need to bookmark this on my home laptop!!

Are my number a bit concerning? I wanted to keep the fats a minimum, but for you the 50g works? When I looked at this online, the numbers were different per site. lol

Hello, everyone!

It is great to be back, I haven't seen you all in almost two years. I had the sleeve in 11/2015 and to date, I've gained 40 pounds. I'm not happy with the weight gain, but I'm thankful it isn't a huge amount to lose. I had one bite of cake and you know the story, I was back in that crap routine of eating, crap.

I'm focused now!!

Alright, the point of this post. I'll get to it. ☺️

Keto or no Keto. Last October, I had to get my gall bladder out and since then, whenever I go overboard on fats, I know about it within hours. Therefore, 100% Keto isn't for me. HOWEVER, I read about Dirty Keto. Have any of you tried that and if so, what are your thought?

Also, I downloaded Carb Manager, but I can't seem to get the numbers where I want them.

This is what I'm aiming for:

New carbs: 35
Fat: 23
Protein: 80
Calories: 80
Because this is set for Keto, it isn't letting me hit the numbers exactly. Do you think MyFitnessPal, would be a better fit?

Thanks so much and again, it's great to be back! ?

Excellent job! You are awesome for turning things around and losing those 7lbs.
RE: fats..like Fluffy said above, if it's working for you, keep doing it ♥️
Looking forward to your next update...

? Yasssssssssssssssssssssss Queen ?

Thank you, I will start trying that. Also, I'm finding while staying within my carb intake, I'm going over my fats. Can I change it to higher fats, with the same amount of carbs.

Maybe:

Carbs 35g

Fat: 50 ?

I changed EVERYTHING I ate and am using My Carbs app and am sticking to it, without faltering. I am down 7 pounds and I'm very happy I'm back on track, thank you for all of your feedback and advice. I'm still a bit confused when it comes to the fats, I seem to always go over. I spoke to one of my Dr's in the office (I work in a Dr's office) and they looked at my app and said, my fats are high but the fats are also good fats.

I guess that's a good thing?
I am now making sugar free pudding w/ a dollop of whip cream, I had no idea there was sugar and carbs in MILK! I'm going back to my almond milk, but for my pudding, I will use FairLife.

Way to rock it! Congrats on the 7lbs loss!!
I kinda feel like if fat isn't making you feel bad and you're losing weight and are satisfied by it, then is it too much for you? I don't think so. Especially if it's healthy fat.

Workout as you're losing and be very faithful to it, it will help tighten as you lose. I think too, it depends on how you're built. Some women didn't start out with a lot of weight in their arms and are spared of the "droopy arms". My tata's were in the 50's DDD, so you know those went to SAAAAG LAND However, once you hit your goal or are within 50 pounds of hitting it, the insurance will pay for your breast reduction and lift. YES, I came back to LIFE!

Today, I'm hoping will be a better day. For breakfast I had a black bean burger patty (I really want to keep the fiber going) w/ one hard boiled egg. Both, totaled 9.7 grams carbs. This is what I'm aiming for:

35g - Net Carbs
35g - Fat
80g - Protein
1100 - Cal
**
So, if I read what was said above correctly, should my fats be lower and my carbs higher? Also, the app you are showing in the screen shots, is that FitnessPal? I like that layout more than the My Carbs app.

13 grams, total carbs is what it says. When I get home, I will download the fitness app. I'm going to start eating Oikos again and I'll add some blueberries/blackberries I can still have my fruit and eat them too ❤️

@Frustr8 @GreenTealael @FluffyChix - I love love love bean patties, I just wish they had some without corn. I'll invest in more of those, fish, and chicken this shopping trip. Also, I like to make taco meat and put it on a bed of spinach. I usually don't put much on my salad due to being full after several bites, but those few are worth it. I do add a bit of Catalina to it. That too, I'll need to stop doing.

PS. I finished my breakfast a little over an hour ago and I'm not hungry. Usually at this point, I would have already had my 10:00 snack. It will all of the oatmeal carbs, WOW!!!!!

Hey Black Bean Burgers taste GOOD, even a former Carnivore like myself can admit THAT! Doubt if I swing completely over to Vegan but Precious Pouch HATES meat, even pureed, so I have had to concede and make HER Happier, she is pretty mean for a a small turkey- egg of Gastric Flesh, and what she doesn't like comes Rolling Right Back Out! I so Envy people with Cast Iron Pouches!
