Was there a new food thread today? - Yesterday, we had a "what did you eat today" thread. Did I miss today's? Or was there not one?

When did you feel hungry again? - Just what the title says. How long after surgery did you start to feel hungry again? Not head hunger, but "I need to eat" hunger?

OT - Photo collage maker online?? - Anyone know of a good, online or free download program that will make simple photo collages? I've been using Paint, but now my number of photos has grown to the point where it's...

Food help: I CAN'T make roasted chick peas! - Okay, am I doing something wrong? I've tried twice now, being very careful to follow directions exactly (per Bariatric Foodie). I strain, dry, spread on a pan, drizzle with oil,...

Sick immediately after taking iron - It seems that no matter what I try (eating, not eating, morning, night), every time I take my iron pill, it's only minutes before I start to feel like I might throw up. It's ter...

I just realized!! - I'm 1/2 way to my goal! I've lost 62 pounds as of this morning. I have 62 left to lose to get to my goal! Holy cow! I'm 1/2 way done!

Movies, but no popcorn - I want to go see a couple movies soon, but I'm so torn. I LOVE popcorn. It's one of the only things I'm constantly dying for. Every time someone makes a bag at work, I want to c...

I just want to eat at night - During the day, I'm still not interested in food. There's just nothing I particularly want to eat, so I've been having a shake and being happy with that.  But once it's nigh...

Back on shakes? - Do you ever just get completely tired of eating? I feel like I don't want ANYTHING that I can have. It's not even that I want other things (well, maybe I miss nachos), but I jus...

Lost inches - Okay, I know I asked about this in a thread once, but I have to ask again. I just don't understand when people say, "I lost X inches!" Is there some formula for this? Like, meas...

Are you the right shape for your weight? - So, I know everyone is different and there's no RIGHT or WRONG shape. But I'm curious. As I lose, I notice I'm losing in very specific places. Like, not my WHOLE belly, but just...

hormone dumping?? - I keep reading about hormones going all out of whack with weight loss, specifically RNY. But I can't find anything online (in my 2-second search) to substantiate this. Is it rea...

You look great! And SUCH a cute pup!

Look at you! Lovely! And I love that dress!

Thanks all! I'm pretty excited! :)

Victory! - I guess this counts as an NSV, but either way, it feels great! I just did my first ever 5k! I planned on walking. I told my race buddy I was walking. I didn't want to run, even ...

Calcium? - What calcium supplement do you take? I find I can't force myself to eat the tablets and I'm not *supposed* to swallow pills, so I'm stuck. Any ideas would be appreciated.

stool softener - forever? - I don't know if it's iron supplements or just too little fiber, but I just don't poop anymore. Every couple days, I'll have a tiny bit - and it's usually hard.  I started ta...

I ate too much yesterday - now I feel a like dirt - Yes, this is silly, but I've been in a funk all morning. Yesterday, I ate too many calories (about 900 instead of the 600-700 I shoot for). I managed all of my protein, but I ju...

oatmeal protein bar recipe? - I'm trying to make my own protein bars since I'm hating the ones I bought (and my shakes). I'm NOT a baker, so I have no idea what I'm doing, but here's what I was thinking: oat...

Getting OFF the C-pap - I had gastric bypass in August - the same week I was put on the C-Pap. Originally, my doctor mentioned retesting me when I lost 50 pounds. Now she says she wants to wait until I...

What to do about clothing - other than buying - So, I'm at a point where my clothes are really too big. But I'm only down about a size and can't afford to buy a new wardrobe. I have to dress semi-professionally for work, so I...
