There have been so many NSVs for me. Every day, I'm amazed at how far I've come. My two favorite NSVs are fitting comfortably in an airplane seat (I fly every week, so this has been HUGE for me)...

I drink about 2 cups a day. I find that it is a great snack. When I start craving an afternoon snack, I've found that I can drink coffee and am satisfied. Whatever works, right??

Have you tried PB2? It's a powdered peanut butter. Basically, you get the tast of peanut butter without the fat. 2TBSP of the powder mixed with 1TBSP of water is only 45 calories. I love mixing...

Sometimes I go too long between meals and will feel hungry. The hunger I feel post-surgery is more easily controlled. Like yesterday, I was busy running errands around town and had forgotten to...

My brain also hasn't caught up with the weight loss. I know that I've lost 60 pounds, but I don't always see it when I look in the mirror. I still have a very hard time realizing that I can wear a...

Thanks for the tip. I just ordered the ice cream maker. I'm excited to try it out.

Thanks everyone! I appreciate your responses. Hope you all have a great weekend.

When I left the hospital after my surgery, the doctor said to strive for 1000 calories per day. Until a few weeks ago, I was staying around 600 calories per day. My nutritionist told me that I...

I had surgery on May 31 of this year. I had totally given up coffee before my surgery. I'm wondering, can we have coffee after our stomach has healed? There's nothing on my post-op diet...

My doctor's office gave me the cards about a week after my surgery. I have never used them (honestly, I forgot I had them). I typically order a la carte items like grilled chicken and green beans. ...

I too still get cravings. I have noticed that the cravings seem to be more mental than anything else. I have eaten a few bites of french fries, but I didn't really enjoy them so I didn't eat...

That is awesome! I'm so inspired reading your post. Thank you for sharing with us.

Great job! You deserve to brag.

Way to go! I'm realizing that I now fit comfortably in an airline seat. At this point in my life, that's huge as I travel weekly for work.

That's awesome!

I have been trying to stay away from sweets because I am afraid that I'll fall back into old habits. But, I couldn't take it anymore! I finally had to have something sweet. I tried frozen fruit...

These sound delicious. Thank you for sharing! Do you know the nutritional value for each serving?

I've had the same problem with getting in all of my fluids, now that I'm eating solid foods. I mentioned it to my Nutritionist, and she said to schedule drinking my water. I'm still struggling. I...

I have to brag a little. I realized today that I've lost 32 pounds in 34 days. I'm so proud of myself. I can't remember when I've felt this proud of an accomplishment. :D:D:D:D:D
