Hello! :smile: I had the VSG (Vertical Gastric Sleeve) December 31, 2014. It was the single best decision of my life. I would love to meet people who are interested in, having or had WLS. (Any kind.)

Sadly, I expected a comment like this. Unfortunately, I find a lot of people do not quite understand WLS. It is in no way the easy way out, nor is it lazy to get it done. Who says that people never tried to lose weight before? Most people who get WLS are people who struggled with their weight for quite a long time. Not to…

Silk Cashew Milk!! It's so creamy and smooth and it's only 25 calories per 8 oz serving.

Anything Assassin's Creed. :D

Hello! My name is Rachel and I am currently on my journey to get WLS. Had my dietitian appointment now just waiting on my psych eval. I also have to meet with the surgeon etc. I am excited but nervous. My first appointment went very well, I am a good candidate for WLS (as my Dr. said) I am leaning toward the VSG, but I…

Burger King: Chicken Nuggets- 6pc = 105 calories + Sweet and Sour Dipping Sauce = 28 calories + Satisfries French Fries - Value size = 87 calories + 1% Low Fat Chocolate Milk = 160 calories. For a total of 380 calories. :) This is basically the kids meal though. Haha. McDonalds: I basically get the Premium McWrap Chicken &…

Welcome to MFP! :) I have over 100 lbs to lose myself. I actually admire you for that, to be honest. I know it's a long and difficult journey and people should encourage each other, not put each other down. I am also looking for friends on here. I am actually also considering the VSG and would love to have someone to talk…

That oatcake recipe looks delish! Will have to try it. Thanks :flowerforyou:

So if I make an omelet with diced tomatoes, spinach and peppers with some Mrs. Dash. It should be okay. Thank you for your opinion. :)

Trader Joe's - Roasted Seaweed snack. You can eat 1/2 a package and it's only 30 calories. :) I love Wonderful Pistachios, the Sweet Chili flavor. SO good and only 50 calories for half a pack. Trader Joe's Dark Chocolate Crisps are super good! You can have 2 pieces for a total of 37 calories.

First I want to say, Congratulations!! That is quite an achievement!! You look great!! :) Secondly I want to say, Your story is truly an inspiration for me. It makes me want to keep going on. :) Hopefully, one day I can reach my goal.

I know what you mean. I was a complete soda junkie, it was hard to kick the habit. If I feel like something fizzy I either opt for a Polar Frost or get Seltzer/Sparkling water and add some 100% juice to it. Yummy! :)

I love the hummus salad dressing from Trader Joe's It's not quite 20 calories per tablespoon but close! It's 40 calories per tablespoon. :)

I have those for work. They are so comfy!! :) I highly recommend them.

I'm tempted to try an egg beaters omelet. Has anyone had that before? Any good?

Recently I've been having one Multi-grain waffle with 1 tbsp of Natural Peanut Butter, a banana on the side and a cup of green tea. :)

New to site, not really MFP. Joined a year ago and lost my motivation. I am back and I feel as if my motivation is stronger than before. :) Looking to make some new friends on here to be motivated and to motivate as well.

28 y/o here. New to the site and can completely understand the struggles of trying to lose weight. :)
