Topic: What to add to Greek yogurt besides protein cereal and fruit? Unusual and surprisingly good ideas?
Hi everyone,
I am looking for some good food ideas to add to my Greek yogurt besides the usual protein cereal and fruits. I only buy Chobani (fruit on the bottom) yogurt so I don’t add any more fruit to it, and don’t have any issues meeting my daily protein goals as most days I get 100-130gr but when I eat Greek yogurt I feel so ‘blah’. It might be my carboholic mind playing tricks on me but I need more crunch, more solid consistency.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks!
Rose

Topic: RE: Never trust a fart !!
The situation wasn't awful (I suppose it could have been worse LOL!)
I'm getting better at getting more in for sure but my taste is kind of different now. Things I liked and had prepared for when I got home from the hospital are of no interest to me at all now :-( I just started re-liking jello, 4oz at a time and it still takes a while to eat it. I'm progressing for sure with less napping and more getting up and moving. Still have a tough time sleeping thru the night though, usually tossing and turning from 2am-5am which I have GOT to figure out LOL!! Maybe if I become more active during the day I'll be more tired at night. I go for my two week on Monday - hopefully my diet will be progressed :-)

Topic: One month out progress?
Hi,
Just looking to get some information from people on where they were one month out?
I was about 245 pounds Dec 10. Lost 20 pounts presurgery on liquid diet. Was 225 for surgery on Jan 10. And in the month since surgery have only lost about 12 pounds. I'm not sure if that's normal or if that's because I was having trouble getting in my water and protein and am still working on that. I'm on a liquid diet (soups/jellos too) still but can start the blenderized soups/veggies etc Monday. Though since I can't get in all my water probably won't have too much.
Am I not eating enough?
Thanks!

Topic: Im in Love <3
Today is my 3 year "anniversary" with my boyfriend, Tom.(dating..obv not married). He is the love of my life and my best friend. He is so supportive of me having this surgery and gave me an anniversary card today. The card said (among other gooey stuff) " Next week is the beginning of the rest of our lives" (my surgery is next week). He is so special. He knows how much this means to me and didnt ever once question my decision. Hes the best! I am so blessed to have him and my family and friends and all of you supporting me through this time of my life. I hope everyone is getting the support they need! :) I Love you TJB..Forever and always! <3
Thanks OH peers. You have made my journey thus far and adventure and I hope I am there for you as much as you have been there for me :)

Thats really interesting. Im sorry you have to do the infusions. I am iron deficient and Vitamin D deficient but they said I should be okay after and just have to take iron supplements. But Id take the infusions too like you said over the weight. I am tired of being embarrassed to go outside with my love because I am overweight and he isnt. I want to be healthy and happy and not in fear of how Im teetering on being diabetic and how heart failure runs in my family. Last thing I need is a weight induced heart attack at a young age. You are an inspiration. Hope ur having a good day! Thanks for the support and reply!

Yea! No more listening to negative people! Im so done with that. This is my body and my decision and its a healthy one thats going to benefit me in the long run. I feel great. Thanks for the support. I am ready!
She had it done in CT I think but who knows. Everything has advanced and Im sure she just got the bad end of it being that it was so new. I dunno. Shes negative and Im not worried. I feel bad about her complications but ur right. Id rather be skinny and have minor issues than fat and die younger for food?!?! really the benefits outweight the negatives.
Have a good Day!
