???CONGRATULATIONS!!???

Thank you @Orchids&Dragons for starting this thread! Humor makes everything easier to deal with ! And how the heck do you link to someone’s name in a post ??!! Drives me nuts! I use the app if that makes any difference

I’m so sorry that you are going through this. By the same token, I’m very proud of you for doing this for YOU! ?

Thanks! I just ordered the Kindle version ?

Congratulations for your big day to finally be here!! Wishing you an uneventful and speedy recovery ?

Everyone’s an “expert”, right? Especially on someone else’s anatomy ??

I’ve said earlier that I’ve gotten my paints out. Today I’m really trying to learn how to glaze in watercolor properly. A bit boring but very exciting and rewarding to me ??

Post pics!!

Me too!!!

They really are! It’s hard to believe they’re not a bajillion calories and 12g of protein to boot. I’m going to have to pick up some of those ??

Have you tried it yet? Purely a scientific question ??

So pretty!! And those peppers are making my mouth water ?

Ikr? I’m so grateful to the original poster ! I am SUCH a visual learner ??

That is awesome!! You will love it ! ???????

Yes. I got so sick of planning breakfast. When I chose “real” food over my protein smoothie I am always short of protein goals. I bulk it up with spinach and blueberries and I’ve gotten much more “regular”. I can never drink a whole one so I just freeze half

^^^this is phenomenal ^^^ i need to change my goal. New goal for challenge is to not be such a sloth ?

You got THAT right ???

Nope @thatch, you’re def not alone! And for my two cents worth you’re doing phenomenal ??????

Well, dang!! There’s the answer ??

You’re singing my song! I have to use my weight at the beginning of the year to keep myself motivated . It is so hard to not compare!! I have to continually tell myself “they may have started with a higher BMI “or “they’re younger “ or “ they’re male (?)”.

Congratulations!!! And best of luck on a quick recovery ??

You, my dear, are a saint! I’m just not that strong yet. Store bought? All the will power of mule! Home baked ? I don’t think I’m strong enough. Your step dad would get 3 or 4 (if he was lucky) ???

I don’t know where this myth ever started about no dumping with the sleeve ??‍♀️. Yes, I dump as well. The first time it happened I couldn’t figure out why. All I had eaten was chicken. Turned out there was high fructose corn Syrup in the marinade . And you have my sympathy! It’s no fun

You can’t fix stupid and I’ve come to believe you can’t fix rude either. ??? I have no idea how I’ll deal with this issue when it arises for me but I’m glad I’ve got all of your comments stored in my head ?
