Was able to eat 2 hard shell tacos today... Is that considered a lot?

Yesterday marked 2 months post op for me... I am down 51lbs since surgery day. I have busted my ass working this weight off since 1 week out. To Celebrate I picked up 2 hard shell supreme tacos from taco bell. I was able to eat 1 within the 5 mins drive home and ate the second one about 10 mins later. I was very surprised I was able to eat that much and feel pretty good afterwards. Literally 1 month ago my wife came home with taco bell, I took 2 bites of my wifes taco and was stuffed.

So is this considered a lot of food for 2 months out. The meal was just shy of 400 calories but I am still under for the day but slightly over my carb limit.

It was painfully obvious that you shared it with fyre. I could tell. And I didn't mind. I disk expect you to be happy about what I said. I didn't however, expect you to do his. I stand by what I said, but perhaps I could have left out the 6 others. I did my best to address an issue and now I'm stepping away. Do as you wish. Just please do not do what you did here to me anymore.

Well said.

Honestly like most people here I don't care one way or another... What I don't get is this need to set people straight or correct them? If you don't like what Laura has to say then simply ignore her. Kind of like **** on tv or the radio, if you don't like it change the channel instead of attacking whatever it is you don't like. You might think it was private and well intended but the thought process to need to fix someone else because they do something you don't approve of is not healthy and that was the root of the current issue. Live and let live, you don't want to say or do certain things on the internet, great, don't, but if someone else does let them be and either ignore them, change the channel or move on.

I can understand this. Point noted.

In a way, I kind of initially put this taco thread on the perv train (even though.... How can it not be when you're talking about eating taco...) so I apologize for the initial hijack.

Laura, I'm definitely a noob here and you've given me a LOT of great advice.

Can we all just be super happy for each others sleeves and support each other? Anybody? No? Ok :(

Go to hell' date=' Laura. You're an immature, selfish, ignorant attention *****. I'm just the only one with the guts to say anything.

Wow... Laura.... Youre in luck......I wish only 1plus 6 others disliked me! Flirt on my dear. Ive never heard you ever speak so nastily to anyone as the way youve been spoken to! I told a moderator a couple of weeks ago that you and fyre along with dean pretty much pulled this whole site back to a more positive place from where it was a few months ago. I stand by that comment.

I want a taco or a quesadilla but cheese is so not my friend right now.

it's not uncommon to have a little lactose intolerance after a sleeve (I was even before it) lactaid pills right before hand can help a lot. Outside the lactose intolerance cheese was one of the easier things for me early on. It's the four tortilla that gives me grief.

Since I work at Taco Bell, I feel the need to defend it. We don't put a tablespoon of meat, it's 1.5 ounces! Everything with meat gets 1 scoop, 1.5 oz with a few exceptions like the grilled stuffed burrito and taco salads. That being said, I agree that it looks like hardly anything! I should show my boss this and try to get a raise....

We've resolved this. Don't poke it with a stick.

I had been busy, just jumped back on and only saw your comment. Then i read the whole mess and saw that you finally realized you carried it too far and tried to rewind. So yeah...probably wouldnt have posted had i read first. I am surprised though that a person working in corrections has so little self control. Poke..poke. :)

I didn't carry anything too far. Would y'all just stop. Jesus. Seriously. F*cking stop. I handled myself very well considering I was ganged up on. Just STOP.

Thank you for saying that. those were some pretty rough times huh? And I just wanted to take a moment to say you were a major help to in those dark hours, I think you do not give yourself enough credit for what you did to pull this place into a more positive light!
