Jealous! I grew up in California, but my parents are from the south. I love southern foods but they are hard to impossible to find here. I really can't eat much of it post-op, but I love biscuits and gravy. You just can't get that once you leave the south and since I can only eat a few bites, it's not worth making it. We do have a few decent BBQ places, but can't get the sides available in the south.

I am from NY originally so I totally know what u mean about not finding the types of food u r used to. We lived in mich for many years then settled here about 15 yrs ago. My husband is a biscuit n gravy lover so I make it for him several times a month. I'm not really a fan luckily. Lol. There's plenty of other carb loaded things I am a fan of. I also love love love to bake. Was my inner aspiration to be a pastry chef. As long as I don't bake Cookies I can pretty much not partake. Lol. Or crumb cake (real crumb cake)... (Makes me drool ). Lol. I'm not a chocolate eater so when the hubs wants sweets I try to make it chocolate.< /p>

Also jealous! All those fresh veggies u can get there! Where I live there's not much. It's 60+ miles to ft worth and even farther to Dallas where most of the good places for shopping fresh are

Yeah. If your lucky someone around you has a garden. It's great to get fresh garden produce.

I often wonder if restaurants are serving ostrich eggs or something, because last I checked two scrambled eggs shouldn't take up half a dinner plate :)

Right?? I think someone with a heavy hand pours the liquid eggs and no one had ANY idea what two eggs really look like

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
