This may sound strange to some but I love yogurt mixed with cottage cheese. I grew up around aunts who made jello salads of every variety. The ones I loved had cottage cheese in them. So my...
So happy for your success. I did not have any issues after surgery and to date have kept losing. Learning I can't give in to head hunger is a new lesson that I really had not had to deal with until...

Thanks for the reminder. I do love cottage cheese. I eat the 2% kind.
I dont know how to count either :p In my food diary I count by days but in my head I like to count Fridays since surgery since I had it on a Friday. I am also tall so I know that is in my favor...
