FBOMBS
Are you MO? Fbombs in my opinion (and Dr. Jason Fung and Dr. Andreas Einfeldt) are only for people who eat a low carb lifestyle and who are at peak weight (no weight to lose). Otherwise, you do not need exogenous fat for either satiety or health. We strap and carry our own Fbombs as MO and O/OW peeps.

Too late for the party. @sillykitty what did you decide to do with the meeting outfit? LOVE the shoes, btw! And great calves/rack! I echo what everyone said...it's how YOU feel in it that's important. Just curious, are you wearing your butt panties since having the LBL?

Hahahaha! I LOVE your post!!! Great realization and NSV!!! Then I laughed even harder at the pjs story! Take them to be tailored. True story. I'm STILL wearing my drawstring jams (4x) cuz I heart them so much and can't bear to lose them! When Mr. F. sees me in this outfit (so special), he will usually say something like, "There's a new sheriff round these parts!" Cuz he thinks I look like I should have a gun hangin off my belt. And a star. Mostly a star! WTG girl and congrats on your accomplishment!!!- Life Taken Away

Sorry you are going through this! Cancer is scary larry! ((hugs)) You won't regret doing the conversion. It is more complicated, but I hope you will feel immediate relief from the reflux and GERD!- Cheated and disgusted
Nope. Get back on your plan this very next bite and carry on!!! ((hugs))- Oh, Just Another Plastics Story
Lovely!!!- Hunger pains?
GERD def masquerades as hunger hon, at least in my tiny Idaho!- Hunger pains?
Look at the sugar content. I guess you just have to decide how or if it affects your weightloss, satiety, or hunger level. IFIFYM’s!- Hunger pains?
Hahaha me having a brain fart! I got you confused with another of our Pals who made that for lunch today! *blushes* It's hell getting old girl!- Hunger pains?
Hahaha! I could have written this yesterday! So I let myself eat healthy dense protein. For some reason, I'm craving cottage cheese, too! I had 109g of protein yesterday! OMG! LOL. But today, I'm not very hungry! So it comes and goes. When I'm truly hungry, I eat. But I won't let myself eat "crap" empty food during those times. Go eat a hardboiled egg! Or meat of some kind! ((hugs)) Also, lots of sugar in your guacchang sauce usually...so you could be having a blood sugar roller coaster.- Food Before and After Photos

Hey hon, will you look on your ingredients and see if it has soy flour or soy isolate in it please? If it's convenient! Love the shape of them!- Are y'all like this?
Nope. Before surgery I was obsessed with food and eating and eating large volumes. Now, I do 2 no-brainer 5 minute meals...snacks as needed. And then an easy dinner. I usually cook the protein 1-2x for the week and then morph dinners into lucky leftovers. So meals are like 10-15 minutes from fridge to table for 2. If I'm not hungry, I skip whatever meal was planned and move along little dogey. Example: B1 - Protein Latte x 3 (cuz it's mah jam and I love it) Breakfast - Egg/ham/light cheese/salsa steamed egg (<5mins total prep and cooking) Lunch - Turkey Cheese Wrap with arugula, po, rbp and WF Italian dressing + baby carrots or grape toms Dinner - Made IP French Chicken last week and also have leftover enchilada sauce, so this week am making Tex-Mex Chicken Lasagna Boats with mixed salad side. BS - Protein banana puddin' if needed. - THE SLOW LOSERS CLUB SUPPORT THREAD
