food

I can eat a whole leg quater if I eat nothing else... I am 1 year post op.. is that pretty much normal or to much?

Hey Rhett... I think I was eating more than you...I'm about 2 years out, ans I can eat alot more now Did you make it down to the Rodeo this year...it's a lot more fun without the tonnage Russ

me and my wife were just talking about the rodeo last night.  last year when we went it was like 2 weeks before my rny. this little kid kept making fun of me about my size and i was pretty bumed out. we had went to a concert and i could barely walk i was so tired. we went this year and i was all over the place. we went to a concert download a couple weeks ago and i had all the energy in the world. i thought to myself this is what i had this surgery for it made all the missing food  seem stupid. i feel so much better. how did the plastic surgey go. i have started the paper trail with my dr.

Rhett, I’m 3 ½ + years out But I was able to put that away at 1 year. Sounds pretty typical to me. Hope all is going well for you! Best Wishes- Dx

I'm about two weeks ahead of you on 3/15. I think I could eat leg/thigh of a

but nothing bigger than that!

Hi Can yu tell an australian what a leg quater is please? Rick

I think it's one chicken leg and thigh. I believe it comes from "hindquarters," but with poultry, the math doesn't add up.

I think......   When you "quarter" a whole chicken you cut it into 4 pieces:  two legs and two breasts - hence the "quarter leg"  which is one whole leg.   Steve

You're right, Steve. Here it is:

I should probably cook more.

Then, there's "drawn and quartered",

Which is not a happy subject...

Thanks for setting me straight on the chicken!
