Annie, you're just a human being who struggles with what all humans struggle with -- staying health when we're traveling. It is NOT peculiar to you at all.
It's clear that every human who...
I know y'all are in constant travel mode, Dutchie. And what a great time of life this must be for you both. My hat's off to you for your ability to do so well while on the road. Like I said above,...
Have a great time in Italy, KiwiGal. Five weeks?! Wowzer!
Truss, I'm really glad my post spoke to you. Thanks so much for your response.
I had a thought while reading your post ... when you "stumble" and you struggle with it, aren't you also being...
Had not seen this thread until now. Glad I did. :)
WARNING: Profanity coming at ya in a second ....
Next month I'll be five years post-op. And at five years post-op, here's what I think...
Kenson, congrats on your great weight loss progress. That's some good work there. :)
I'm with others who suggest that you not agonize about what you're eating while on vacation. Yes, be...
Yes, traveling is the toughest time for me, too. And I travel a lot.
I like what WANAGL said: "Mindfulness" It's an excellent "word of the day." Over and over.
What a GREAT first surgiversary post.
:) :) :)
What a glorious time you're having. I'm so, so happy for you. <3
Russ, I'm glad you're feeling rewarded by your participation here.
For me, the value here comes from the "reality" shared with others who've been through and are going through what I'm going...
First of all, a 40 pound weight loss in two months is a HUGE amount. Five years ago, I lost only 10 and 11 pounds my first two months post-op and went on to lose 100 pounds and to maintain that...
Lee, not yet. But I have a consultation in early August with a cosmetic surgeon / aesthetician (spelling?) to see what my options are. Mostly, I just want my younger neck and jawline back. :)

Here's another research about the interaction between stainless steel (not titanium) staples and MRIs.

CONCLUSION:
This study found no increase...
No, I've not had an MRI since VSG surgery 5 years ago.

Sharon, I second the motion for you and hubby to move to Colorado. I think you both BELONG there! :)
Welcome.
Big spoiler: The sleeve will help you lose weight initially, but it will NOT fix your emotional eating or boredom eating. That's something you need to address big-time through...
I drink a lot more water when it's warm, even hot.
But after losing 100 pounds, I'm pretty cold-natured now. Don't need to be cooled off. Just warmed up. :)
Lee, support and accountability opportunities are wonderful resources. And this board offers those resources. I look forward to hearing from you.
Maintenance is ongoing. It's not like losing...
You're right in the groove. Including the "scared as heck." :) Pretty much everybody was. :)
Hosh, is your pneumonia gone? Feeling better yet?
Hi, Lee ... welcome back. :)
My knives. :)
The more I cut and slice and dice (mostly veggies) to prepare my meals, the healthier my meals are. :)
Also, I usually pre-cut all the meat (mostly chicken) I put into stir...
I can DEFINITELY eat more than 3-4 ounces! (I'm nearly 5 years post-op.) Remember, I'm the one who eats 9-10-11 servings daily of veggies and fruits.
However, that instruction we all had early...
