I dunno, its weird...i still love food, but its not so much about actually eating it anymore...i really just enjoy cooking it, plating it, planning to cook it, looking at pictures of it, smelling it, watching others eat it. And - don't judge me - I absolutely LOOOOOVE reading restaurant menus in their entirety. I probably spend more time perusing the menu than I do actually eating. Not sure if this is some weird mental issue, but i seem to be functioning well in society so its all good. LOLOLOLzzzzzzz.

food porn.

Carry on!

Salmon with a Dijon chive sauce; zucchini and potato wedges from a hello fresh box. I had half a salmon portion and probably quarter or less portion of the zucchini and potatoes and didn’t finish that.

I grew my own lettuce for salad! I have enough more for a salad a day for at least a week. 😳

No leftovers for me as it was stolen by a child…. Who is now eating my pumpkin seeds. 😒

I'm only on the second box since surgery. I would say I enjoy them about the same so far though. I typically opt for the carb smart options since they are more in line with what I should be eating. There are definitely recipes that I would have chosen before and cannot now but I still enjoy the 'healthier' options. A meal intended for 2 adults will generally feed myself, my fiancé and my toddler and sometimes still have leftovers depending on the recipe. We get in ruts with cooking so I like having different recipes to change things up and nights where I don't have to plan anything. Hello Fresh lets you skip weeks as often as you want so it's pretty low pressure.

Upon reconsideration...forget being neighbours. I would like you to formally adopt me please (though I'm likely older than you, so I guess I should adpot YOU 😉)

I would totally wear those super fun pants.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
