there are a lot of texans~~

80's - for the pizza craving your having, when you go to food here is a good choice:

*my husband is also banded and a pizza junkie, he eats this wkly w/a salad*:

Kashi Brand Mediterranean Pizza

1/3of the pizza is 220 calories / 15grams Protein / 9grams fat

It's made on flax seed / 7 whole grain flat bread & is really tasty....

good alternative to the double stuffed cheese crust (my fav)...

Hey Luluc! Your husband doesn't have any probs getting the bread part down? That's encouraging. Thanks for the recommendation.

Wow... there are a lot of us "Texans" around here. That's fun! I am in Kerrville, about 60 miles NW of San Antonio out I-10. I have surgery on Friday in San Antonio...

Luckily my pre-op diet allows me one meal a day. Without that I think I'd go nuts! I just like chewing! And of course, today they bring in a big box of donuts for staff meeting. They smelled so good. Amazing how much of our cravings are psychological isnt' it?

I can't wait to cross over to the banded life!

All kidding aside. You were an inspiration to me far before you were "The Lady at The Top", but how cool was it to log on and see you there. I even think I want to be a pin up girl once I reach goal!!! I love the support here. I can often use a good kick in the butt to keep me going. Feel free to be brutally honest with me, and PLEASE, PLEASE, never let me be a whiny butt! Those are the only requests I have for my lady at the top keeping watch over me. LOL

I am not from Texas, but I have lived in Galveston and Wichita Falls. Is that ok??

Of course that counts!! Once you've lived in Texas you are always considered a Texan! It's the rule!

DH won't let me search for 30 something guys, but that's OK... I couldn't be happier with my 40 something man!

This does seem to be a mostly woman world... Maybe men just don't post in forums as often as women?? DH rarely gets on the computer... once a month or so to check email. He lets me pay the bills! :blushing:

Greetings from Houston. Day 4 post-surgery here. Have to fly to Dallas and back tomorrow, so will be sending happy thoughts to the DFW folks.

How often do you guys jump on the scale? I've been checking every day, but think I need to make myself only do it once a week. Not sure I can pull it off. I'm obsessed with it.

DO not weigh urself got atleast a week or so after surgery...u are full of IV fluids so u wont see much weight loss and it will depress ya.. Dont become obssessed with the scale. Do it once a week or so. Ohh and when ur monthly visitor comes to town u will probably go up a few pounds because most women bloat then so dont freak out about that either ok.. Just a forwarning lol

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

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
