  1. Have you tried the premier protein Blueberries and cream? If you’re trying to get back into them it’s a new flavor. So good. Cookies and cream is another fav too.
  2. I do not use a straw since I had my surgery. For me it’s simply this. My surgeon said not to so I’m following his plan. I think there are many diff opinions on this and you have to make a decision that is best for you. For me I’ve followed my surgeons recommendations to a T. I don’t really miss them so not a big deal for me.
  3. Catwoman is 100% correct. Once you get a few days in it will get easier. Sounds weird but it will. Drink broth. It’s warm and filling when you’re hungry. To be successful you need to commit to this. We have all had to do this so I’m speaking from experience. You can do this too! One last piece of advice. Don’t put yourself in the same room as people eating things you will want. When my kids and husband would come home and eat I’d simple go into my bedroom w my liquid of choice and stay in there until they were done. I did that so I wouldn’t smell, see or make myself ravenous w the food being around. You can do this. Set yourself up to succeed. Don’t put yourself in situations of temptation. YOU CAN DO THIS!! Keep us updated. I wish you success.
  4. Omg that is gorgeously plated. Looks so delicious
  5. Message Alex. He is the app administrator I believe. . He prob would be able to help you.

    I love this outfit! Totally something I’d wear! You look great! super Cute outfit
  8. I had the sleeve and hiatal hernia repair. I’m 3 years post surgery and have been maintaining for at least two years. I am very happy with my results. I just started getting a little heartburn. Not sure if it’s from the sleeve or not. With that being said. If I knew 100% that I’d get heartburn then I would have done the bypass. All in all, I don’t get this every day and even when I do get it, 1 tums does the trick immediately. Talk to your surgeon about the difference and what would be a good fit for you. Everyone is different. I know so many people who have been successful with both sleeve and bypass.
  9. Indont like pre salted nuts/seeds. They tend to over salt them. Our grocery store has bins of so many items that you can buy by the pound. I get the plain ones. They are good and I use them on a salad so unsalted is better for that for me. If they weren’t over salted I’d eat them straight up!
  10. Pumpkin seeds are so good! I just started adding them to my salads too!

    (Jaw drop) omg your figure is amazing. Geez woman!! I’d walk around in that all day too if I looked like that in it!

    Love love love that dress on you!! Looks so summer-y!! It is very flattering on you too! And no it’s not pathetic to dine alone!! There is a difference between being alone and being lonely. You’re def not lonely-the men will be flocking. I’m sure you won’t be sitting alone for long! You look amazing!
  13. You look SOOOO GOOD!! I feel the same way about my legs. Almost wish in hind sight I did the circumferential TT bc it would have lifted my butt and thighs at the same time. I don’t want the inner thigh scar. It’s tough but for now I’m doing nothing. Just going to enjoy my big perky boobs and nice tight flat tummy!! Keep us updated on WhT you decide. I’ll never say never! Who knows I may end up in the future doing it too!! As Greentealael said “once your down the PS rabbit hole” lol
  14. I clicked on link. Can’t see it. ?
  15. I’d let your surgeon know though
  16. Gallbladder is on your right upper quadrant.
  17. From Houston? Where about? I’m just outside of H town

    Lol @chibrub!! I’m def pretty proud of those yellow strings and yellow line around the neck! High fives for us all!!✋?✋?✋?✋?✋?
  19. Wow you look amazing!! What another success story!! Def following your PS! I am 4 1/2 mos out from my PS and no regrets. I hope for the same for you too! Keep us updated!
  20. Recipe please!! Love both of those things
  21. Kris77 replied to sillykitty's topic in The Lounge
    Wow-zerrrrrrsssss! You look amazing!! I think your outfit is perfect for drinks and cruising the farmers market!! Knock’um dead girl!!
  22. Omg that’s a great idea bc yes I end up tossing the left overs which is a lot by the end of the week or I send it over to my mom. No one else likes it. They like “regular” crust.

    That’s awesome!! I wear scrubs at work too and they are colored according to size! I’m in a XS (yellow for us!) and man it’s a long shot away from the XL (tan) that I use to wear. I remember seeing others in yellow and thinking I wish I was and NOW I AM!! I still can’t believe it. Way to go Kristie!!
  24. Ok if y’all don’t have an H‑E‑B grocery store then I wish y’all did. It has amazing store brand items. Their cauliflower crust pepperoni pizza-I added mushrooms. I ❤️mushrooms!! This is so good. I’m not a huge pizza person but when we do pizzas I don’t eat the ones the rest of my fam does so I get this for myself. So good!! Plus in a paper plate-NO DISHES AFTERWARDS! Win win!!
  25. I went from a 8 1/2 to a 7 1/2.
