Carbs kinda creep me out
Not in general, but when I eat and log them in my diary. Long story short... I did 15.75 mile run/walk on Monday (usual is 6mi), but my dietitian and insurance company monitor (Nazi) freaked out. My cals and carbs were already lower than they'd like, so the extra 10-ish miles pretty much sent everyone into the stratosphere…

Sometimes, just the smell (gross post and vent)
can send me into vomiting. Yesterday, for example. Hubby and I went to Golden Corral. It's a waste of money for me, at least quantity-wise, but having the meat selection is nice. Anyway, I had a few bites and was waiting to eat a little more. Hubby had started on the taco meat. It's his fave. He burped and whoa Nelly! I…

Multitasking while...
...setting up computers and printers and talking to Staff Wellness about my "strange" diet. Long story short, I do Disaster IT for the Red Cross and I'm in California for the wildfires. I'm doing my darnedest to eat right while I'm here, despite the carb fest table outside of my office. After a few days of me replying…

If my net carbs make it to 30g, it's a high day. Yesterday, my net was 12g and that makes me happy. Due to a requirement by my…

Progress Notes
This is a portion of today's blog post at 2poufs.blogspot.com/. I did a post last year on my birthday and another this year for comparison. RNY was January 19th. ***** These measurements were taken over a three-day period (18th, 19th, 20th) and averaged to account for fluid retention and other variable factors. All…

Hi, New to the Group
I just thought I'd say hello before I start posting in other threads. I'm a bariatric patient on a low carb diet. I'm branching out from bariatric groups, so I can feel more comfortable when I get to maintenance. History... spent 20 or so years on a mostly veg diet and gained weight on CICO. I gained enough that my…
