Keeping Warm: I have had to learn a lot of things moving to Ireland. Good insulation and double-glazed windows help; thermal underwear; big puffy coats and don't forget your scarves and gloves; but mostly, spend time over at the in-laws who have a huge fireplace!

Day 25 - keeping warm in winter! I use a double layer coat that can be worn 3 ways so it's super warm! Then since I'm always cold all the time these days, it's fleece tops, sweat pants, and an extra thick long fleece blanket. It does the job loldownload.jpeg

#25 ---lots and lots of hot coffee. Of course keeping cool in the summer entails lots and lots of iced coffee---may have a problem. 😬

#26 will need to wait. Not going out to eat until Monday.

Yeah, I don't do hats either--NYer thing perhaps? 😉


Maybe it’s a SoCal thing, but I take any opportunity I have to wear a hat. Went hiking when it was in the 40’s required a cashmere beanie 😂. There was ice on the ground people! I didn’t want to freeze to death! 😮😮

Well it isn't quite the First of February but I have lost 3 and 1/2 pounds this month , even with being on TPN, which slows down loss pretty much. But my loss means enough to me as 25 pounds does to another person, so I am boasting.😝

Eating out-

There's almost always some form of grilled meat and I substitute veggies for the sides. Take home the leftovers. If I'm not headed home, I need to practice leaving the food behind. I'm still tempted to keep eating so that I won't "waste" it. Like me hauling around an extra 100 pounds somehow helped starving children in 3rd world countries.

How I eat out: I've always had to wrestle with restaurant menus, coz I can't have anything with alcohol or non-halal meat so that usually means fish or veggie (unless they put wine in the sauce, the meanies).

So, that my cuts the menu down to a couple of good options and from that I try and pick something that isn't too fatty, creamy or sugary. Often I'll do an appetiser and a salad or Soup.< br>
I ask that the side of chips is taken off, and refuse the bread rolls in the beginning.

I don't really eat out that often, mostly coz there aren't a lot of good local restaurants where I live and I love cooking so we prefer home meals anyhow.

      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
