Topic: RE: Bariatric Bucket List
My list is similar
1. Cross my legs comfortably, I am almost there my legs go to sleep so I am almost there
2. Run a 5k 10k and then eventually a half marathon
3. Never wear a size of clothing that starts with an X Again
4. Be healthy enough to have children- my obesity is/was the direct cause of a miscarriage so this is important to me
5. Go into an amusement park fearless of this size of the rides
....I'm sure there's more but it's late and my brain is nonfunctional at this point

Topic: RE: Sugar Free Foods
I can't do SF products either, so I just go for the normal products with sugar I just check the nutrition and look at mainly the sugar content and carbs.
