I can't respond to all the messages of support I received on my thread earlier titled "For the record", but I just wanted to say Thank You SO much for reaching out to me and reminding me how many great people are here on this board. I really needed the reminder :) You are all so amazing I am drawn this site daily even if I don't always post. I feel like I have been part of so many of your adventures as well over the last few years as we have struggled together and succeeded together. There is so much give and take here so I appreciate the reminder. The fact of the matter is that I would be so lonely I were I to leave here. You girls have become some of my closest friends since my schedule makes itreally hard to maintain interpersonal friendships.

Also, since I just made an amazing lunch I thought I'd share the link Artichoke crusted Tilapia. This was amazing, really low carb, and super easy. Oh, and I am not much of a fish person so that says a lot. Plus I currently have very little fluid in my band (not feeling restriction right now) and 1 piece of topped fish with a tiny salad got me really full, so its highly filling.(I made 1/2 the recipe and shared it with my husband and son) Let me know if you try it.
