I had RNY 6 months ago. I travel with friends about 2 or 3 times a year, it's one of my absolute favorite things to do. We're going to NYC in 2 weeks and I'm SUPER excited. I get to get on a plane 100 pounds lighter (well I better be, I'm 3 pounds away

I've been craving sweet things lately...any suggestions? What I've been able to find just hasn't met what I'm looking for. 

I'm not a fan of homemade protein shakes anymore, no matter what kind of powder I use I can't handle the taste. I'm look

I know this has been discussed before and I did pay attention but I've mainly seen people talk about Ebay, consignment shops, and Goodwill. I just listed a few shirts on Ebay to see if I can do anything on there but I wanted to know if anyone has used

I hate cooking in general - my husband has always been the cook. I've been cooking more often and the recipes I've been using don't have the servings on them and to put them into MFP I have to figure out the servings.

I weigh all of my own serv

I'm sick to my stomach. I've been looking for another job for 3 months because I hate my job but they beat me to it and fired me today. I've never been fired before :( Financially we're semi okay for a while but I hate the unknown, especially when I've

I'm not sure what's going on the last few days. I haven't changed what I eat, or how much I eat. But the last 3 days or so I've hungry a lot. I feel like when I'm done eating I'm hungry maybe half an hour later. So I tried to have a popsicle or a pickl

I'm frustrated with myself right now. I am happy with my weight loss and where I am, I just had a really good week of loss and I'm finally keeping my promise to myself to exercise regularly. I've lost 87 pounds and I'm at 5 months and I'm really happy

Just curious if it could be tweaked for the better here or there. I've been a slow and steady loser for the last few months - usually losing 2 pounds a week, sometimes 3 but almost always 2. Here are a few sample menus. I'm always below 30 grams of car

I promised myself that I would start exercising when I hit a certain point. Well that point is here. So I'm celebrating because as ob this morning I am OFFICIALLY under 300 pounds - 299.8!! But I am sad that I have to exercise now lol.

I have s

I feel like I've been saying I'm stressed for the last 2 months. Shocker...I'm still stressed lol! But I had my appt with my new therapist last week and I loved her immediately, which is a big deal because I haven't lived the ones I've tried locally 2

I had my 3 month (which turned into a 4 month because of scheduling issues) checkup today and I'm so irritated!! I saw my surgeon's PA and she was asking what my goal weight was. I said he had never set one and I intended to ask him today about that. I

I've been on an AD for about 2 years now since my grandfather died and haven't had any major depressive issues, I've had a lot of stuff happen during that time including a serious cancer scare. Which actually is what led to RNY eventually. But for the

This weekend was my weekend to visit my friends I haven't seen in over 6 months because we're all spread out geographically. It was a wonderful time and I was worried about seeing them for no reason of course. But they surprised me with tickets to see

I haven't had any caffeine since January, I gave up pop when I knew I was going to do the surgery. I never drank a lot of coffee except when I travel with my friends. Well I'm going to be with my friends in Chicago this weekend. I'm usually tired becau

I'm super stressed out over work and money right now and now my damn roof has a huge leak. But still no cheating woo - hoo! Going to visit my best friend this weekend to celebrate a HUGE milestone for me. 8 years since I was diagnosed with breast cance

I'm going to visit friends this weekend I haven't seen since a few weeks before my surgery. One is my best friend, everyone there knows I had surgery. I don't know WHY I'm nervous. I know they're not judging me, I know they all love me and have all bee

I've needed a new bra for a while now due to the weight loss and I do NOT mind this even though I know a lot of women hate this part of having surgery. But I had breast cancer and the reconstruction I had used my own tissue which lets them lose and gai

I'm super stressed out over work and money right now so that gives me hope that somehow I'm sticking to the rules and haven't eaten anything bad or over eaten at all that maybe I can eat like this long term.

I'm going out to eat with my extended family tonight and they picked the restaurant. I looked online at the menu and my only choice I can have there is a grilled chicken sandwich. So I already know I'll eat it without the bun and it will be fine. I'm c
