Mmmmm. I love BACON!!!! I could totally eat that blt!! >:)

Awesome job!!! Hope your birthday is/was amazing!! :)

Thanks for your responses!! My doctor is fairly sure it isn't pancreatitis but I will take it slow this time and see what happens. :smile:

Lol. With his eyepiece and pocket watch on a gold chain!!!

I love Hardee's lettuce wraps. They are all delicious but I love getting the monster burger!!! My husband laughs at me trying to eat the whole thing. But he is always happy to finish the rest! I think he feels healthier eating half of my lettuce wrap instead of getting a second carby burger!

Remember every scale weighs differently. I weigh less on my scale at home then on my parents scale and my doctors scale. Don't let this get you down!!

I imagine your zucchini oats are similar in taste ti zucchini bread...yum. :)

I bake almost all of the bread we eat minus when we go to restaurants. I worry about all of the crud in whats on the store shelves. :#

Deoending on how many you are cooking for, I suggest pre-cooking a chicken, turkey breast and/or roast on the weekend to eat throughout the week. Plan different meals from each of the meats...tacos one night (lettuce shells), beef and broccoli a couple nights later. Broccoli/chicken alfredo one night and chicken salad the…

Hey thank you so much for your reply ironmaiden4life! I do need some further clarification because I really was not given very much to go on and am not sure my doc really knew what to tell me back then. Maybe he will have more to go on now. Thank you again. :)

As a side note...I am not a "runner". More like the occasional semi-jogger during my walk. :D

I told you the only restrictions I was given in the above posting.

I have a vitamix and wouldn't trade it for any other small appliance. I had to use sesame seeds in hummus a couple days ago because i was out of tahini and you would have never known...so smooth and creamy.

Thanks for your replies, TavistockToad! I think i am just going to be walking and running. :)

I am not vegetarian but here are a few quick and easy suggestions. :) Sauteed coleslaw mix with almonds is a favorite you can put tofu in it. Hummus with a serving of pita chips and veggies. I also like lettuce wraps filled with veggies or a rice/quinoa salad. Vegetarian fried brown rice. Zucchini boats (not too quick but…

Shabaity- Thank you for the suggestion. I am not too bendy so maybe it would be good. Lol Aslsmile- Thanks foe your reply.:) Yes i spoke to a physical therapist a month or so after my surgery. He told me to do kegel exercises and to potty correctly....lol. Otherwise he gave me very little. Both of my surgeons gave me…

Another vote for vitamix! We love ours. Kids will even drink smoothies they wouldn't from the old blender. Makes me happy they get that extra nutrient boost. :smile:

I have the Charge hr and I really love it. I had a glitch in mine and after they tried the reset (didnt fix it) Fitbit sent me a brand new one. I paid nothing. They are a very customer oriented company and I appreciate that so much. Anyway...I have had no problems with it since the replacement. I love it.

Just plain ol' coffee works great for me if there is no HWC. Nice post! :)

I am a winter person- I love cold!!! I intend to get as far north as possible some year. Lol So i want to look fabulous in form fitting sweaters and not feel/look like a big round fuzzy blob. :) also not look like the side of a barn in ski clothes. Can you imagine a gleefully screaming barn skiing toward you? Frightening!…

I get bloated when i travel as well. Heck i still bloat once in awhile even when i don't! Generally the culprit for me is diet coke. Don't freak out. Things will even up after your trip :)

Congratulations!!! You are doing GREAT!!!

I used to have horrible cravings. Thankfully now with a mostly zero carb diet..i only crave sweets when I have diet soda. It is my downfall so I really try to avoid. I used to be so jealous of people who can have sweets (even faux sweets) and not get set off on a binge! Low carb cheesecake was one of my favorites back…

I like burgers with salt, pepper, steakhouse onion seasoning and lots of bacon grease!!! I cook them in the grease then pour it over top. I am going to have to borrow @Fit_Goat's cooking style...never thought to mix it in. Yum.

I like eating this way. The benefits outweigh any negative I could put on it. I want to be around for my children and future grandchildren...healthy Superhero Granny!!!! I want to be active until I drop dead.

Yes...me too. :) I don't crave very often but I dont tempt myselfn

I am hoping you had a great time!

Wow. That is awesome customer service. I wish more businesses would go so far!

Hi! Welcome to this great little community! I am relatively new too. Everyone here is wonderful. You will find a lot of knowledge and support here!

So sorry you have had a rough time. I think we have all been there once or twice. :) I pray it gets better for you today. Sometimes a good vent is what it takes to release that stress!
