Oh nekkidity...my frienemy!

UGH- nekkidity - after my surgery, the drain was put in a really awkward place, too low on my right side for me to change the dressings. So, hubby had to do it. Only way to do it was bright light and naked from the waist down. aarrrggghhh! That lower-tummy is soooo fugly! I definitely prefer low lights for shenanigans. I can live with whatever he discovers by the Braille method, but lit up like Times Square was so embarrassing. Even after almost 30 years of marriage, a girl'd like to have a little dignity left!

And yes, for the record, my head definitely swells when I'm feeling hot af in an outfit. My naked self helps to regulate my head size!

I agree!

I know! I mean birthing 4 kiddos did a lot of dignity damage, especially twins because there were even people looking into the room from an observation window! And yes, the window looked straight into my lady parts! But that was a long time ago, now. I guess I felt I had reclaimed a little!

Does the actual fasting period kick in faster for bypass patients? I mean, food doesn't stay in our "stomach" for hardly any time at all, really.

I would potentially "think" so? But have no proof of that. Some say being in Keto makes things go faster also, but again--no proof. I do know my ketometer (breath) shows when I'm getting benefits cuz it finally starts going up--while blood glucose is going down. When I'm eating poorly, or eating big meals, then it goes pretty low (.10-.15). Mine never gets over 1 though. And that's fine by me!

I've used keto sticks and a breath meter. Neither ever showed that I got into ketosis, even in the beginning when I was only eating 300 cals/day. I had to have been fat-burning, but never could prove it by the meters.

Yes, folks. Alice is officially down the rabbit hole.

(I'm presently drinking a cup of green tea + bergamot tea...)

I give you:

Autophatea...just sayin'.

It's a thing.

It's possible to do doll! But you will likely still end up remodelling your figure with it. But there are many in Dr. Fung's Facebook group who are doing autophagy fasting and maintaining their weight.
