Hello All,
I am wondering if anyone knows of a good therapist that specializes with emotional eating issues?
I am in the Brampton/Mississauga area.
Thanks in advance.
Maybe I will have to take a veggie tray to all the Christmas events this year ;)
Good morning everyone! Did my weight routine at the gym this morning and was forced to go 2.5 lbs heavier (per side) on chest press and bicep curls because the other weights weren't on the rack. Its a good thing because as I said it forced me, I suppose I could have went light but where is the challenge in that?
Yesterday I "gorged" on veggies and dip. Who even does that? There was a retirement function for one of the employees. Oh there was plenty of cookies, cakes and fruit trays, but nope I went for the veggies. I think veggies aren't "bad" but full is full....walk away, just walk away!! 
2 years 8 mos
B1 protein shake
B2 roast beef (there is about 4 oz but not sure I'll get it all in)
L - spinach salad with chicken, bacon, egg, goat cheese
S - deli turkey/yogurt
D - shredded chicken on mini tortillas with sour cream and shredded cheese
Have a great day all!
Over 100 lbs lost! and 13 lbs below goal weight!
Good morning :)
So, my parents decided to surprise us by coming last night instead of Friday. Today I'm going to drag them to Ikea with me. Hopefully it isn't totally nutters there. I might also go to toys r us. I have a gift thing that expires at the end of the month so I will see if there is anything there we need :)
QOTD: what's your best holiday survival tip for staying on track post WLS? Mine is to always bring a bag of food and snacks in case there isn't anything WLS friendly. Also, I bring my water flavouring things with me so I can drink lots of water.
Post-op three years and nine months.
Breakfast 1 - oatmeal bites
Breakfast 2 - Greek yogurt and blueberries
Snack - protein bar
Lunch - chicken and cabbage stuff
Snack - melba and PB
Dinner - either leftover cabbage stuff or lasagna... I will need to make something for everyone here :)
Snack - pudding
All water and vits.
All they asked me on my surgery day was if I had any loose teeth or implants. i too was undergoing crown prep and had no issues.

I've worked out the whole time I've been losing and nothing is helping at this stage in the game. I figure I'm in for some skin removal in the future.

I read somewhere that biotin is the 'mortar' and protien is the 'bricks' so be sure to get both in. I noticed an improvement once I started on the biotin, but you for sure need to be sure you're getting enough protein (as we all should be anyway :) )
I wound up chopping off most of my long hair (which I swore I wouldn't do) and love it. I have a lot of 'baby hair' growth coming in, but I can tell it's thickening up again. Just keep reminding yourself that you notice the hair loss more than anyone else does.. and it will stop :)
Good luck!
