  1. Hmmm. I'm gonna have to try to make these. They look too good.
  2. Wearing a hat isn't a thing outside of NY? How do you guys keep your head warm?! I am so lost!
  3. The base is Acai, banana, and almond milk. On top is granola, hemp/chia/flax seed mix, peanut butter, strawberries, and blueberries. Measured and logged everything, roughly 260 calories and 33 carbs. Hard to limit the carbs when it comes to fruit. That would probably be about 3 meals for me though.
  4. They're back and with a vengeance! D:
  5. Lol. If I get up in the morning and it's no longer in my fridge, I'll know where it went [emoji14]
  6. Lol! It is actually still sitting in my fridge. I made it and then was hit with a wave of stomach pain.
  7. Hospital I stayed at had private room. Maybe you'll get lucky and no one will share the room with you?
  8. It has to do with being in ketosis. It will pass after awhile. Make sure you're staying hydrated!
  9. It's great to do exercises with ankle weights! Sometimes the resistance from your own legs isnt enough. I use them while exercising with my personal trainer all the time. Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app

    Because at the end of the day, most of us want more than a cat and I'm not talking to two cats or a dog. [emoji14] A lot of people do not respond on dating websites after liking someone because the message you have sent is not original. If a women is recieving a lot messages, a lot if the time she will only respond to the ones that are the most interesting, not the generic "Hi. How are you?" Dont let the the process get you down! I firmly believe the right person is out there for everyone. Theres a whole lot of people in this world and it ridiculous to think there is no one out there that vibes with you! I wish you the best!
  11. Make a vision board! Put some people up there who have a similar body to the one you aspire to have.
  12. After about a month, you'll start to see the weight loss usually. Take photos to do comparisons!
  13. They should have had you do a barium swallow and taken scans (x-rays) where they can see everything.
  14. I did not do a liquid diet before my surgery. Only a 24 hour fasting period beforehand. Surgery went well and progress has been going smoothly. Trust your surgeon!
  15. Congrats to starting your journey!
  16. Yeah, I dont actually respond to the people. I just smile. Not about to cause problems in the office over nothing. I'm more focused on how the comments effect me and how I feel about others.
  17. Yeah, I got the same bs from my family for awhile. Two days after surgery my sister goes "It doesn't seem like the surgery is working for you." Naturally I respond "Its only been two days, you dipshit." At the end of the day rude comments from family bother me less than those from aquiantances.
  18. Sadly, I agree that all of the negative or off comments I have received have come from other women.
  19. I've gotten the "is it intentional" thing also. People are so weird about things.
  20. Omg! Asking if you had cancer? Some people have a lot of nerve!

    If you dont put any effort in, you'll wind up with women who dont take any effort to get..aka the bottom of the barrel
