Omg. Three words for....turkey pepperoni chips. Yum!!!

249.2 this morning. Woop woop.

I'm so happy it's raining today. I'm beat up from yesterday's hike. Think I'm going to nap on a cold rainy day.

Thanks for the updates, its good to see I'm not the only one trying to figure out what foods work and which cause problems. I'm 5 weeks post sleeve surgery and I travel for work. Eating at home is no problem, but being away is a huge challenge right now. I'm slowing down and trying to make great choices, but they are not always available. I do travel with my premier protien, so I fall back on that for my protien.

Youbjust buy turkey pepperoni and put it in between paper towels and microwave for 45 seconds to 1 minute depending on microwave and eat!. Crispy and delicious. I'll check nutritional info. @@retrieverguy

Great job on the weight loss. I'd say you deserve a cold rainy day to sleep in and stay warm.

Those chips sound good. I miss crunchy stuff.

@@1sttime

Welcome. Thank goodness for premier Protein and muscle milk. I am sure I will be relying on that and the salad bar in my work cafeteria when I go back.

so far today. yogurt with yummy little sweet orange things whose names i can't think of now and another five bites or so of that yummy enchirito. :D

might try that Protein mug cake thing tonight

I am just eating lunch now. I am having 1/2 pouch of Bumble Bee Tuna in Olive Oil with jalopenos with some Water crackers. Very good. I added some diced onions and cherry tomatoes. So good. I guess I will have the other half a pouch for dinner (as long as my sleeve likes it!).

Glad your sleeve is accepting your food choices today!

I just did a search of the Protein mug cake. Oooh so tempting.

I just did a search of the Protein mug cake. Oooh so tempting.

i know right? im super excited cuz i can't stomach drinking anymore protein but 'eating it' as cake with fat free cool whip. um yeah. i can stomach that lol

My surgery is scheduled for 11/17th /15. I am scared. My husband does not support my decision. I will probably be alone for my surgery. Praying for God mercy and blessings.

I had the sleeve 22 months ago. I attend support groups at least once a month, plus I see a psychologist, exercise and I have a large support system. I hope you can attend support groups. For me the support is key. I know I could not do this alone. I hope your husband will realize you will be healthier and probably happier. What is he afraid of? This is life changing. I can do things I could not do before. I wish you all the best.
