  1. Wow, and all these years I thought in Japan they ate healthy! I wonder why the lack of fruit and vegetables there, climate? I have heard of DR Weiner and will have to look for his book.
  2. Good points MsMocie! I like the thought of veggies with a side of protein! I love my veggies, in fact I started some seeds today!
  3. Thanks for your reply and I would love to know the FB group name! My stomach does protest too much fat! My 6 month appointment was delayed a month since I have cold/flu symptoms. Boo!
  4. I sent a message to the admins about The Importance of Doing the Head Work . I wonder why it disappeared?
  5. My question is can I safely do Keto with a bypass and no gall bladder?
  6. I agree that the lack of weight loss is most likely the 3 week stall. Also, you will feel like crap while you are healing. You are doing everything right. Just give your body time to heal, rest when you need to!

    I am worried too, I checked the other day to see when she had been here last and it was December. I hope she is doing alright also, I valued her posts and experience!
  8. Thanks, that really puts it into perspective! I wish there was a Trader Joe's close to me!
  9. It should dissolve in time I would think.
  10. Mine has just begun to fall out and I am almost 6 months. If I remember correctly after my first surgery it didn't last very long and no terrible effect on my looks.
  11. This looks delish, how big is this? Is the cracker the size of a saltine?

    I look nowhere as beautiful as Greentealae, but here I am hanging out at home today.
  13. Great idea! I wish I had thought of doing that.
  14. If they sent you home with the little machine you blow into, keep that up! SOB not something to mess with. I ended up having pleurisy 3 weeks out.
  15. It is medicine and that is how I treat it. I would no more take this before driving or going to work than I would if it were an opiod pain killer. Jake, do you make your own oil?
  16. I have someone I am getting medical grade from and it helps!
  17. I also have my card and the medical community is not so accepting yet. I was going to a pain clinic and they would cost me an arm and a leg with the constant testing they do. I talked to the shrink there and he really is in favor of Medical, but the government ties the hands of hospitals and clinics and won't permit them to work with medical marijuana patients. In fact when I saw my primary DR last week she flat out lied and said she could not give me the pain patch she prescribed me before (which is not even addictive, "buprenorphine patch", which is used in place of opiods and was just featured on the show New Amsterdam) She told me the government prohibits Dr's from prescribing any pain medication. She must not know that I work in a DR's office! But, it never came up for my WLS, and no one tested me.
  18. I also went through a spell where I was bitchy and depressed. I could cry at the drop of a hat. It did go away, just your body and mind trying to adjust!
  19. I had some blood work Monday and was so excited to see my cholesterol levels! Total Cholesterol 175 < 200 200 HDL 65 > 40 52 LDL 96 < 100 124 Triglycerides 70 < 150 116 the numbers in the middle are what they should be and the numbers to the right are from October 2019
  20. I am planning on selling mine. I have a closet that is half full of too big clothing!
  21. Don't freak yourself out ( easier said than done, I know) Last year they found a mass on my kidney as well. I have a a Bosniak type IIF cyst on my left kidney which they say they don't need to watch, even though it is half the size of my kidney. Anyway, please let us know what they find out and I will pray for you in the meantime. Hugs!
  22. Thank-you so much, I can't wait to try them!
