(Just curious!)
(Because I bought a bar of sugar-free extra-dark chocolate today, which is sitting untouched in my purse, just WAITING for me .... yikes!)
You're right. We CAN do this and together is better.
Hugs back at ya!

This is a journey and I have lots to learn. I may not have been a big overeater before surgery but I didn't get to 249 because I always made the best choices.
I think you rock too! I'm so happy that you started this group.
I hope that we will have good discussions about the emotional part of this journey as well as recording what we eat etc. I think this is a wonderful group for exploring all aspects of food and WLS. I like that we have all different surgeries here to participate.
I'd love to read that study when you find it. I'm always up for a good laugh!

Ya know, that old familiar feeling. The thing about stuffing feelings is that sliders go down so easy that I could eat forever which is a terrifying thought. I guess that's how people put back 100 pounds after WLS, sliders sliders sliders.
Thanks for the tip about the pepper. For me it's more about the crunch. I always start missing the crunch when I'm on Atkins. I remember that from years gone by.
Thanks for caring and sharing mamacita!

V'N MY RNY. WORKING FOR ME BECAUSE I WORK FOR IT.
I did not post Friday or Sat but I also fell off the wagon and ate peanut butter. An entire jar in 24 hours. I added some chicken and pork skins so I could say I did not only eat pb.
I can never forget I am a dysfunctional eater. Like you it does not happen often but because it does happen I knew I could never have a ds without risking total loss of control. (Please don't misunderstand and start that surgery war bs. I'm talking about my own dysfynctional eating.) Thank God for this restriction or it would have been far worse. God bless this tiny pouch and I thank God for OA online.

*WITH PIC!!*
I tried this today and BOY am I glad I did! Not only was it easy to make but this will last me for a few lunches/dinners this week! I'm single and pinching pennies, so meals like this go a long way!
Low Carb Crockpot Chicken Dijon
4 chicken breasts with or without skin
3 Tbs olive oil (or any other)
2 cloves garlic minced
3 Tbs white wine *optional*
2 Tbs soy sauce
2 Tbs Dijon mustard
**I added 1/2 c chicken broth for more moisture**
Heat oil in a skillet. Add minced garlic and cook 3 minutes, stirring often. Add chicken breasts and brown. In a separate bowl, combine wine, soy sauce and mustard and mix well. Pour generously over chicken. Put all in crockpot and cook for 5 hours on high.
You could get all creative and add whatever veggies you want to this, and maybe a splash of chicken broth.
Try this, you WILL love it!!
I congratulated myself on getting *MY* chips instead of getting *DH'S* chips which were right there too.
Every day is another day and another chance to do what our minds say instead of what our *heads* say. I aaaaam so grateful for that,aren't you?
