I truly don't care what anyone's take on politics is when I'm on this site. Stifle the urge to delude yourself into thinking your opinion on the prez matters here. Let's try to be adults and stay on-topic.

I was sleeved in Mexico and, while my surgeon did provide consultation, information and support, some info was conflicting or incomplete. For that, Google is a wonderful thing. ObesityCoverage.com has a wealth of information. When I need perspective from others, I come here. Everyone's experience is sooooo different, no doctor's office can replace those personal stories.

This isn't the place for political rants. Save the seething hate for your therapy sessions or Facebook page.

Absolutely no offense intended, but I could not possibly care less about anyone's point of view on American politics (or any other nation's politics) when I visit this site. I will enthusiastically entertain all input on bariatric issues till the cows come home.
Anything of a divisive and completely off-topic nature, no thank you. We don't want or need the mud-slinging here.

Dunno about anyone else, but it isn't so much hate as bemusement and pity for the ordinary peeps - same sort of emotions as towards Kim Jong Un, Berlusconi, Ferdinand Marcos, Gaddafi, Nixon, Mugabe etc. Mind you, Oz has Scott Morrison currently at the helm, heaven help the Aussies.

I admit to the same head scratching as @FluffyChix I have a tendency to think everyone is capable of finding, reading and absorbing information the way I do, and that is probably wrong-headed as all heck....slap head. However I don't think 'most people' are truly stupid as much as under educated, and that is a different can of worms.

White Rice, Sugar, Corn Syrup. This is kinda like eating candy. A tiny bit once in a while won't kill ya, but it's not doing you any favors. The chips are a much better choice:)

I second the Quest Protein Chips! Love all the flavors!

1g Protein but low calorie. I am not the food police. That job belongs to your dietician
What stage are you in? What does your plan say about rice? Are you hitting your protein goals at this point?
When I make food choices it's based on if it fits into my food plan and macros for the day (calories protein and carbs) I look for high protein alternatives...(that's just my choice)
When I crave crunch my go to Snacks are veggie tray with ken's light dressing to keep my calories and carbs low.
Quest BBQ protein chips, melted mozzarella and salsa. to help hit my protein goal.
I admit, I have a quest protein chip addiction (made out of whey isolate protein powder) 120 calories 5 carbs and 21 grams protein.

NSV: so i randomly went jean shopping and the size 4 actually fit, and really fit. I thought i was going to have to squeeze into them for dear life lol. I've been fat my whole life so this is new to me. The fact that i'm actually a small still blows my mind, but yet the scale still says im overweight smh. I'm still going to view this as a victory.

James asked two clear questions. And you chose to only answer one....I am assuming you want to raise awareness but you've not even said who the surgeon was
