LOL.. I was gonna buy one of those frozen shrimp ****tail rings at the store the other day & decided against it, I just don't know if I would like cold shrimp. When you buy the frozen pre cooked shrimp..do u eat that cold or if you heat it up ~ how? I havent gone out to eat yet since surgery, I can only eat 4 bites of somthing, so it seems pointless to spend all the $. Thanks for the heads up in the Welden farms products, I'm too cheap to pay for the $8.xx shipping & suppossedly the Publix next to me carries these products, so I will go hunting for it soon. Just wondering...What do you do with carmel dip & choc syrup....eat it by itself??? I have been afraid to try the products w/ sugar alchoals but I bought that sugar free candy at the dollar store, hard candies, sherbert flavors & OOOH it was good...did the trick for that sweet craving I get.

I havent tried the frozen shrimp ****tail. I like to buy the shrimp scampi dinners. If it comes with pasta then I will eat a couple of bite but mainly I eat the shrimp. Another good thing that I love it the Gortons Grilled Salmon. Those taste fabulous. I'm not much on salmon but the Gortons is great! The sugar alcohols doesnt seem to bother me. I havent even attempted to put sugar into my mouth because if I find out that I dont dump on it, I will be sooooooooo tempted to eat it often. I just dont want to take that risk! lol I do buy the sugar free small candies though and love them. I think the sugar free life savers are my favorite ones. I thought long and hard about the shipping on the Waldens products. So I just ordered several items so it didnt seem as expensive. The shipping is the same from 1-10 items. My aunt wants to go in with me on the next order so we can split the shipping cost.

Ms.Me....At captain d's do yu eat the rice that the shrimp are on??? Any problems with rice? thanks

Yes, I ate a few bites of the rice. I didnt have any trouble with it. The shrimp with the rice seemed to fill me up quickly.

The sad thing is I exercise at least 6 times / week if not every day for at least 30 minutes to 1 hour. Whats going on with me....Why am I not seeing #'s like everyone else. ?? Holly

25 lbs is alot of weight!!!!!!!!!! You probally woudnt have never lost that much without this surgery. Your weight loss will come in time. Everyone loses at different rates Hold your head high and let those pounds melt!

I had my surgery on Nov 21st. I have lost 29. pds. I also lost 26 starting in aug. before surgery. So I have lost a total of 55 pds total.
