Either that or she drug out her scale and went into a dark solitude :D

Amen!!!

Yes you will need extensive urinalyisis panel by your doctor. Diabetes that is not controlled can give you a higher protein reading in urine.

I know several people who did this surgery and there have been issues that have crept into their lives. This surgery causes lack of serious nutrients being absorbed and don't make me mention hair loss on several of them with bald spots! Be grateful because you can lose weight at a healthy rate and absorb nutrients.…

Stay with it and do the best you can at this moment. Maybe review yourself objectively as to possibly....maybe.....how come you may be scared to coming to the end of this road and starting down another.....just a thought o:)

Nothing we say can feel as good as you do in your own skin...GREAT JOB!

I have seen your before and after at different intervals and it nearly brings me to tears every time. All I can say is job well done!!!

I would start at the body scan cal amount and see how you do. Reduce if you need to as you go along but 1320 may be fine if you are not a slug :D

I often wonder if its me that woo's by accident as my finger scrolls down the screen......really got to watch that :(

Everyone just needs to stop telling people their personal business! When its hard for others and you to avoid the questions.....simple."Mindful Eating" Plain and simple.

Don't put me in a room with cheetos or fritos!! Potato chips or tortilla chips...not my tbing!

You have a gift to contribute to others...you just have to find it!

Maybe joining a group....helping out in a homeless shelter or kitchen. Donating time in an animal shelter. Not every day but it seems that helping others benefits the spirit.... best medicine ever!

Sat.and sunday I only eat 2 meals instead of 3 during the week. I eat late in the morning and have dinner no later than 6:00 on weekends. Feels like I'm getting more. I do leave room for a snack at night though. Change up mealtimes on the weekend.

Sweet pickles on braunsweiger slices and a dollop of mayo.

I am a type 1 and I use the same recipes as everyone else and portion is key. No special recipes. What I do avoid is recipes that have a high sugar content. Anything with sugar sauces or the such. Nothing special but I do know what makes my sugar soar.....devil pizza!!!

I have a black mark on my glass for 5oz of red at 125 cal. My bank cannot afford more so I made a conscious effort to stop all together cause 5oz would never be enough. Its hard to not drink but its hard to be fat....pick your hard!

Being on here! :D

Keep it up...looking good!!

You know you're doing well when your boobs are bigger than the midsection!!!

I totally agree....he should be asleep and so should you. Eating in place of sleeping is not a good habit to instill. Kitchen should be closed well before bedtime!

I was FAT...end of that story!

Sugar free red vines! 3 are 70 cal and if a little hard is best! Takes longer to eat! :D

I was thinking the same thing. I HAVE to minimally do 2 of those things ;)

Being able to sit into airline seats and not pouring into someone elses seat. Long flights are not as tortuous. Also seeing the seat belt strap with lots left over. Yea!!!

Off the rack is a true WIN.....so is 91lbs <3

I thought morbid is the limit. Isnt that the end?

You are a nurse so you know the doctor has to let you know not only benefits but risks too of any procedure. Its up to you to weigh them both out.

Yes....anesthesia is a risk but surgery is a risk for anybody. I thought bariatric sx has prerequisites prior to sx. You must lose first a certain percentage of total weight because after sx you will be on a specific program. Get all your facts straight before you make your decision.

I am so glad a friend told me about MFP because I was way out of control and disgusted myself :s
