Fixed your pic issue for you- I just changed all the [I M G] to [i m g] (no spaces). I'm glad the almond milk is working out so well for you! I'll let you know when I try it. I might buy some vanilla beans and scrape some of them in there. Mmm.

Removing your uterus and not the ovaries won't keep your ovaries from becoming cystic.

I love spaghetti squash! There was another thread about this yesterday that had tons of great ideas for recipes: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/1005569-spaghetti-squash?hl=spaghetti+squash#posts-15396965

Breakfast: 3 ingredient pumpkin pancakes drizzled with honey, with greek yogurt and bananas on the side. Recipe from http://www.katiekdid.com/2012/11/07/3-ingredient-pumpkin-pancakes/

Not a liquid diet after the immediate post-op phase, unless you enjoy dumping syndrome. Eventually they eat normal foods, with restrictions. These patients need to limit fluid and carbohydrates in their meal or else risk gastric dumping that causes hypoglycemia, extreme sweating, heart palpitations, colicky stomach cramps,…

Interesting that she says in the last line, "Losing weight and the method you choose to do it is a personal choice, but for me, surgery was the answer," yet spent the entire article talking about how it is a miraculous procedure (although "not a silver bullet"). Bariatric surgery is no joke, and it's no quick fix. It's not…

Holy crap! That's awesome! Congratulations!

Ok woops, try doing lower case "img" in the [ and ]

PS I can't wait to try this out! :smile: Thanks for sharing!

Hi! To fix your pics, all you need to do is add "{IMG}" in front of each url and "{/IMG}" after each url (without the quotation marks, and with [ and ] instead of { and }) So it would look like this: {IMG}http://i1220.photobucket.com/albums/dd450/whatsdafus/2013-06-01113516_zps4a2ed661.jpg{/IMG} (but [ and ] instead. "IMG"…

Mushroom lover's veggie burger with sriracha aioli, asparagus, beets, spinach, and roasted red peppers.

Ok, if you're one of the heavy lifters here, you can cut that sucker in half without cooking it a little first. Still a pain in the butt! So if you want to make your life a little easier, check out this link below. It'll show you how to cook it so you don't break your awesome knife set and lose a hand in the process, and…

When I worked at Starbucks, soy milk could be kept open for up to 10 days (and that was back when they used Silk brand). You absolutely want to shake it every time! Even so, when you get to the bottom of the carton there will be some sediment. I keep my almond milk for 10 days/until I finish it. But I stopped buying the…

Sorry! I just saw your post. The beet burgers are from Post Punk Kitchen: http://www.theppk.com/2012/02/quarter-pounder-beet-burger/ I didn't use fennel seed, and I subbed cashew butter for almond butter. I topped it with plain Greek yogurt and a serrano pepper salsa. I'll have to get that recipe from my fiancé - that was…

6 oz Greek yogurt with 1/2 a banana mashed, 1 Tbsp cashew butter, 1 Tbsp flaxseed meal, all mixed up.

Chia seed "pudding," AKA tadpole eggs. And those nasty tapioca balls in bubble tea. Durian. Smelled like sewage, methane and socks. Tasted like vanilla pudding. But. The. Smell. Oof. Chopped liver.

I would think that would be fine, and yes, every time you have symptoms. Just be sure to write down all that other stuff when you're having symptoms with a time stamp! I shamefully admit that I laughed out loud at that! Note: Don't do ^that^ :wink: (goes without saying)

:flowerforyou: I love this kid. She's got guts. Good for her! And of course she's "coached" by her parents - THEY'RE HER PARENTS. Kids learn from their parents and their parents' choices - good and bad.

Those readings are low and will cause symptoms. I'd call your doctor again. I'd definitely keep a log of bps at one certain time of day, plus anytime you're symptomatic, with as much detail as possible as to what you ate and when, and what you were doing. If you feel your doctor isn't taking your concerns seriously, you…

Agreed. You should certainly ask your doctor. Also, take your BP sitting in a chair, feet flat on the floor, legs uncrossed, and arm relaxed. Record which arm you measured it in as well. You should either do both arms, or the same arm every time. You could also be dehydrated. Are you drinking at least 8c a day? 60-70 bpm…

I quit in June 2012 after smoking a pack a day for 10 years. I did gain some weight, maybe 10 lbs, but guess what? It's a lot easier to lose weight than to get a new set of lungs! :) (I wish I could take the credit for that, someone else said that in a previous post a few days ago on the same topic). Anyway, have you tried…

I stayed the same height from 13 through 19, grew an inch in a year. Then grew again at 22. And again within the last 6 years. I was 5' even at 14, now I'm 5'3" at 28. Not saying the same thing will happen to you- my point is that you're young and physiologically your body is not done growing yet. Not to mention, all the…

And one more for good measure:

37ish left to lose here. Feel free to add :) Strength in numbers, and all that jazz :tongue:

You don't need supplements to get the daily recommended intake of fiber (25-30g per day). Eat lots of raw veggies with their skins. Apples (the skin) have lots of fiber, as do bananas. Sweet potatoes also have a good fiber content. Steel cut oats. Nuts. All are awesome. Personally, I like to add flaxseed meal to nut…
