LDS Bandsters

i agree that it means sensible amounts, which the band sure helps with. i can no longer eat a 24 oz ribeye, baked potato loaded with toppings and a salad.

at least, not in one sitting.

Thanks for all of the discussion.

Niceguy -- i laughed so hard about your carbs=alcohol=beer belly. That sure explains my reflection in the mirror!!! lol

I'm glad to hear that salads aren't out - they are one of my favs.

I am obviously not eating as the w of w would have me do, or I wouldn't be in my predicament. However, I just want to make sure that I can use all that food supply when the time comes!!!!

After selling the extra cars, moving to a cheaper place, rearranging finances to keep afloat in this crazy time....

Church is next to go.

Just this month alone..... $100 for camp, 30 for Pioneer day (that's just the dinner...the booths and treats are gonna be extra...oh, and we are supposed to bring something for a donation.... the scouting fundraiser is $20, fuel to get to church and back on Sunday...Wednesday....the RS meetings....

I can't do it any more!

I'm not poor by any means, that's the thing. But fuel prices what they are it costs $7.00 every trip to church...and let's not even get started on food prices, utility increases, etc.

When and how do you cut back on church? My thoughts are Sacrament is a must...the others are going to have to stop.

(tithing and fast offerings are current and won't be touched)

if I am not mistaken RS meetings other than on Sunday are quarterly, unless you are joining groups such as book clubs, exercise groups, etc. as for your kids can they not carpool with other young people going to the Wednesday activities lessening the times a month you have to drive?

just a thought

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
