- One of my breakfast "go to" meals for work is Greek yogurt (Yoplait 100 Vanilla), some Kashi cereal and fruit mixed in. Great for protein. I noticed a recipe on the back of the yogurt container and really enjoyed it.Mix 1/4 cup uncooked oatmeal...
- Hi- I like to keep protein bars on hand just in case I know I need to supplement my daily intake. I always liked Pure Protein bars (not wonderful but the best I could find) but they have a new "soft baked" bar which I think is really tasty. Can't...
- I am just plain boring....and that's a good thing. I had my 18 month check up w/ the surgeon's PA yesterday and I am doing great. I am likely at the weight I'll stay at (158ish) and have lost 80% of my excess weight which is what is predicted at...
- from the group last night. For those who are pretty far out and still relying on protein shakes to get your protein in, you should be eating your protein at this point, not drinking it. :)
- Hi, The meeting last night was great- tons of info. It is geared to those who are 12-18 months out or need to get back on track. Limited to 8 participants and a diverse group. Me- (14 months out) ; a sleever only 4 months out; RNY 12 months...
- to say I'm 58 (had a birthday last week.) Just keeping it honest :)
- Tonight is my first of 5 meetings (the next five Mondays) with my NUT. The meetings are geared to those of us who are 12-18 months out as a refresher but also to be sure we know what to expect at this point. The meetings are limited to 8...
- I have admitted it several times here that I HATE to sweat. My preferred exercise is swimming but even with a heated pool (83 degrees but outdoors) at the gym it has just been too cold for me here in NC. So I ventured inside, did the treadmill and...
- Just want to wish everyone a Happy New Year. I am not one to make resolutions but I plan to continue going to my monthly support group meeting and keeping up my good habits (and avoiding bad ones!) Blessings to all. Kathy
- I had my gastric bypass one year ago today. I weigh 159 lbs, a loss of 80 lbs and tons of inches. I feel great, look pretty great (size 10) if I do say so myself and am very happy that I had the surgery. Going forward I may lose a little more but...
- I guess it wasn't really a stall, just really slow weight loss. Though I was losing inches, I only lost 10 lbs between July and October going from 175 to 165. I just kept on program and was shocked when I got back from 4 days away last weekend to...
- Hi all- For those of you 1+ years out, when did you stop losing? I am 10 months out, was 106 lbs overweight and have lost 76 lbs. Since mid August, I haven't lost anything. Staying at 165, I am swimming laps 3 x each week for about an hour,...
- I have NEVER owned a pair of tights in my life (even when I was a little girl.) And today I feel like I look cute in them. :) On a related matter- I have given up have my clothes taken in since it got more expensive than buying on sale. I have...
- Hi, I saw this on a site when I was contemplating surgery and saved it. Someone had asked how you know if you are on track and this was posted as a reply as having come from a surgeon. I found it interesting. I was 106 lbs. overweight and have...
- Hi, Around May I started using the lap lanes at the gym I go to. I was hesitant since those that use them are pretty good swimmers and in good shape (for the most part.) I try to go 3 times a week. In the beginning I did one or two laps of the...
