I purchased a healthy appearing kale based green juice drink at Starbucks this morning- then read the label .

37 carbs ! As opposed to a zero fat light n fit yogurt - 90 calories, 19 carbs and 3 grams protein.

I could eat two yogurts for the same "cost " as that ( pretty nasty tasting) drink and I'm getting actual tasty FOOD lol .

I do notice that many of the calorie counts for Starbucks type coffee ( and other) drinks are shockingly huge .

Kinda like drinking a milkshake - a real slider food.

The folks that frequent Starbucks aren't a bunch of lightweights either on average.

It's crazy how much of an impact weight loss surgery can have on reducing the risk of obesity-related cancers. And yeah, that obesity statistic is definitely alarming.

Yeah, I saw that about Sharon Osbourne and Ozempic. Side effects can be tricky - what works for one person might not for another. Always best to talk to a doc if you're considering a new med.

It's crazy how gastric bypass can have these unexpected effects, right? I can imagine dealing with postprandial hypoglycemia can be quite a challenge. Good to know that Medicare/Medicaid is expanding their coverage for it, though.

However, it is admirable for his weight loss efforts. From 2007 to now.
