Could be worse, housemate cooks bacon every morning. I can walk by cake...but the smell of bacon drives me wild...didnt know I was hungry till I smell it...and I work from home!

If you see a weird news story of someone beaten to a pulp by a package of bacon...you know why..

I made shrimp wrapped with proscuitto instead. It satisfies my desire for bacon without the fat. Nom nom nom

I make bacon wrapped stuffed jalepeno at least every other week. Yummy.

What do you stuff the jalapenos with Butter? I was thinking of stuffing them with string cheese but I'm not sure.

My wife likes cream cheese in hers and I prefer a bit of good old fashioned cheddar in mine.....usually a dab of shredded 2% sharp....along with a small piece of chicken fajita.

Oh sad day! And with that discard of a luscious red confection, I have a confession....

I had this surgery too soon!

I have never tried a red velvet cake!!! They are everywhere now... As a matter of fact I crossed paths with one yesterday and actually put a call into my husband to have him tell me to walk away :P I did, but not without trying a sample of a cream puff first :D

It doesn't have any kind of a special taste, imo. I made one once and it was basically a chocolate cake recipe with a lot of red food coloring, the icing was better than the cake. Maybe I just had a bad recipe though.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
