In the past couple of weeks I saw some posts about the SF syrups and it got me interested. In my area I hadn’t seen them so went to cost plus and got 3 flavors : brown sugar cinnamon, toffee, salted caramel. They sound delish, right? I think I’m us

Hiya,
at what point in your WL journey did it become more difficult to lose weight? I am not complaining about my wl but I feel like the last 5-6 lbs have been a struggle and I am nowhere near goal. I feel like I am back to pre surgery situatio

You know...the place famous for pasta, wine and cheese? While in Italy for a week I passed my 1/2 way (55 lbs) and I couldn’t be any more surprised. Admitted, didn’t touch the pasta, had literally ONE sip of wine so other people wouldn’t feel un

I have a dilemma ...how did you tell your friends and co-workers you had surgery? Or did you ever tell them? My family knows, and a handful of my friends but not everybody and def not anybody at work. I have lost 40lbs so far and people haven't noticed

This question is mostly for the vets. From reading the posts in the last 5-6 weeks I see most of you are opposed to fruit. My nutritionist, at the last appt, told me she wants me to have protein, veggies AND fruit. I'm not questioning her expertise but

Apologies in advance if this is not proper topic on a Sat morning....but I need HELP!!! I'm almost at the end of my 3rd week after surgery. My main complaint is constipation. I have tried smooth move tea in the last couple of weeks and it worked fine.

Hi everybody. I'm in my 3rd week post-op and getting kinda paranoid. I was moved from liquid to mashed/puréed at the end of second week. For lunch and dinner I have about 2 oz puréed chicken + 1/4 cup of puréed vegetables. Is this too much? I am in

Hello everybody. Fresh off surgery (2 weeks) and full of questions. Googled bariatric forum and this where I ended up. Lurked a little bit looking at everybody's posts. So many encouraging sig lines with pre surgery weights and post. I hope I'll be one
