I thought it would be cool to have a random thoughts thread.

Surgery or non-surgery related. I know I sometimes have thoughts that aren't really "thread worthy" but I'd still like to get my thoughts out...or typed out.

I can't wait to start shopping at Banana Republic!

I can't wait to wear jeans and a cute t-shirt comfortably and actually look cute and not stuffed in!

Not a December sleever, but my dinner is so delicious!! And that's what I'm thinking each mouthful I take

Wondering how do you count your protein/carb intake when you are on solids. For example, if I cook my own meal how do I know what I am consuming to keep myself on track? Just wondering????

You can use My Fitness Pal which a lot of people on here use. They have a huge database of foods already entered and I think you can even enter in your own recipe and it will break it down.

You can they keep track of all of your percentages. Its a great tool in case you slow down or hit a stall to see if/where you mightcan make changes in your counts.

I've had my sleeve for 18 months, and I'm 1 month post op on my TT. I can finally buy clothes from anywhere and I look so much better in dress clothes than I ever did. And I'm telling you.... the choices are overwhelming.

And it's getting expensive.

My random thought:

I am overwhelmed when it comes to shopping. It took me 4 hours and 20 mins to buy a single pair of jeans this morning. Im sure it will happen once i get the hang of it, but i really thought i would enjoy shopping. There are plenty of choices and 'cuts' to choose from. Aargh.

Same here.....the choices! ARGH!

I was so stoked at the grocery store last night to find that Old London melba toasts have only 9g net carbs!

And they were on sale

SCORE!!!

Same here.....the choices! ARGH!

I can't wait!

I can't wait to just go into a store and buy a pair of boots and have them fit my calves. Soooo tired of paying $65 for calf extensions!!!! It's the price I have to pay to be fat and stylish.

December 5th can't come fast enough.

I've been buying clothes like I'm not about to lose weight?!? What's that all about??? I'm addicted to shopping. :ph34r:

I've bought 10 ties in the last week. I had to get rid of all my old ties because they were extra long....for a fat neck. Too long for me now.

Considering I wear a tie every 2 years or so, buying 10 may have been overkill.

I am a Ross Dress For less fan. Best for tops and dresses, not so much jeans are slacks. Fun to keep wardrobe updated with Macys type brands for $10-20 an item

I buy 90% of my dresses from Ross...I should really own some stock in the company!
