Dang, I gotta post. This was SOOOO filling! I have lunch for days. The before is gonna be 2 meals, then I still have 2 meals of tuna left, and 5 meals of the cucumber salad left and can just add the leafy greens to each salad. It's not often I have leftovers.

I call this Spicy Tuna on Cucumber Salad with Arugula, Baby Spinach and Lime! Ole! Ha. Can you tell I loved it from all the angles? And I had AFTERS! LOL!

I'm double posting this cuz it's that good! The yogurt, blueberries and walnuts are optional. But they sure are delish!

Mocha Caramel Chia pudding with Blueberries and Walnuts. So rich and creamy!

Using the hot coffee to swell the chia seeds makes them puff almost instantly! Just add coffee and keep stirring! TY @GreenTealael for sharing the secret to chia success!!! Woot!

Soooo yum, going to make a base Chia with coffee too tonight now.

Can I say btw that Chia is my new best friend? I've been eating this stuff for 5 days now, and have not needed to rely on my Benefibre nor Clearlax to poop! Delicious AND "dislodging" at the same time 😉

Stop it! So you're making it now? I swear, just go make the mocha and coffee version. Add any flavor of Premier Protein. I just had the caramel open, but would have used chocolate otherwise. And tell me what you think? I loved adding the cinnamon, cayenne, and turmeric to the hot coffee and cocoa mix!

I can't believe you've been able to break up with clearlax. Be still my heart! I'm hoping chia isn't the reason for my uptick in weight at the beginning of the week. I'd been flatlined between 136 and 138. Then suddenly went up to 141! :51_scream: But now I'm back to 138...le sigh.

Wife walking in with new 👗 dress.
Husband: Where did you get that? Why didn't you say "Get Thee behind Me, Satan?"
Wife: Oh I Did, I Did, Honey! But he said " Ooo Baby, It looks even better from Back Here!" So I just had to have it! LOL 😛

Nope, I didn't shuck em. I learned my lesson years ago when I jabbed my palm with the tip of the knife during an unfortunate shucking attempt...stayed away from the job ever since. This lovely batch was shucked by the guy behind the bar.

Our total oyster haul last night was 75 (and I only had 6!). It was Oyster Night so they were only $1 each (Canadian, so thats like $0.74 for you guys) :)

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
