Crazy hey? We all have the big chains, I just think America has the biggest problem with maximum quantity for minimum outlay. To get takeaway (in my household anyway) is still a "treat" thing. As a reward or when on holidays.

Just reading what I wrote. Maybe that's why we get so much emotional gratification when we eat it, because it was given to us when we were good and deserved something special.

My saving grace is that my kids are snobs and when we go out to eat its always sushi... And we live in an area that there really isn't any fast food terribly close (thank god) because if it were closer I think the temptation would be overwhelming!

Oh but we do have an ice cream parlor within walking distance ... And Tuesdays are 1 dollar scoop night :(

My daughter loves sushi too. She won't eat steamed salmon that I cook, but she'll eat it raw with avocado and wrapped in rice and seaweed. Kids today are weird.

I already saw that the Australian government put them on eBay! :) Jk. You will be happy to know that I finally got my baby girl sugar glider. So I won't need you to run down to the rain forest after all! ;)

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
