Congratulations and a very Happy Birthday!  dinner sounded great and this is to go to show people that there is life after WLS but you have to work at it in maintaining because as you said losing is easy keeping it off for years is the hard part by far. . 

Pat yourself on the back, Lora for all the you have accomplished in getting your PhD.!   Jane

Please consult your surgeon & nutritionist for how to do it their way.  Biggest regret? Not doing this 10 years ago! Every day is better than the day before...and it was a pretty great day!

Looked at Fromm, but decided on Merrick Whole Earth Farms for the puppy food.  Still trying to decide on what to use once he istarts eating regular adult food.
