BBQ sauce was my friend so was spaghetti sauce. Refried beans are easy. Ricotta cheese and Sun dried tomatoes.

In the beginning we had to get protein and then we added vegetables and fruits. The body will turn any of this into sugars as needed.

The picture size was too big for my phone but not on the computer. You're looking great keep up the good work. Randy

We all have had that you will get through this, your not going to never have those foods again. Tell your self you can give them up for now. That the surgery will last for a while. ( I told myself a year ) but some of it has been less. Randy

That's good news and it gets better from here Randy

I was sleeved in July of 2014 and have lost from 286 to 181.5 just about 7 pounds to BMI normal. Some of the best help has come from others on this list. Good luck and God bless Randy

Add me too Randy

Great results you have done well, and are a inspiration for the rest of us. Randy

It sounds like she is angry and you have become the target. My advice is to follow what the bible says and kill her with kindness. This idea works amazingly well Randy

I use MFP just like the others and with this group as my support group. The people here are invaluable Randy

Prayers are coming your way, for your surgery and your husband to get work. Randy

Don't tell my wife either please. I did over 5 hours of yard work yesterday felt great to do more than 30 minutes at a time. Randy

It's hard to add more information after the other posts. But I'm 9 months out only 7 pounds from my goal. Feeling 25 years younger my exercise program is 1 hour of deep water aerobic two days a week and another hour of strength training three days a week. I've lost over a hundred pounds in all and I'm still replacing fat…

I've been on this list for quite a while, and this subject has come up before. The consensus is many of you become irregular and this is likely due to hormone changes. Remember your body is going through a lot of changes. However, due talk to your Dr about this. Menopause can be verified with a F.S.H test. Randy (…

The scar tissue is the most likely answer also may be called adhesions which form after surgery. There is no treatment for adhesions in most cases because any more surgery could cause even more adhesions. Randy (registered nurse)

Actually it's a good idea to change it up once and a while, it seems to reduce stalling.

OMG you have made a major transition, how exciting! Thank you for posting

You know what you need to do. I asked myself if I have come all this way just to give up in the eleventh hour? I'm 4 pounds from my goal and yesterday I ate badly all day; pie, cheese cake, hash browns and gravy, sausage, and trail mix. Today is a new day and I'm back on task tomorrow will be an hour strength training and…

I have had tortillas both corn and flour, the problem is they fill me up fast, so I have to be very careful.

This is almost my story so ditto what dsjsmom23 said
