PFFFT I feel that.
//slides into the room// //gets wicked rugburn//
FU KC
Duuude!!! Where the hell have you been this is incredible!!!
And lmao I know that feel! Nowadays when I go to Olive Garden with my best friend I don’t order an entree– either just salad or a dessert, and then Matt gives me few bites of their dish and it works well. C:
TBPH I love the sleeve- the only drawback is that it’s hard to get enough nutrients! I am taking vitamins now but it’s very difficult to eat enough protein. XD And I’m so sick of protein shakes after drinking them pre-op and post-op!!! Luckily the pinto beans at work are easy to eat and high in protein. C: I freakin’ love pinto beans with cheese and a bit of rice like damn that’s what I’m about.
Oh my gosh I can only imagine what it was like behind the scenes! They always warp the truth on reality shows- they twist it and edit it to show only what they want the audience to see.
I remember my mom making me watch a few episodes of Too Fat for Fifteen… gosh, I seriously don’t know how you survived ten months there!!! I would have lost it.
Oh god the protein shakes post-op.. The clear protein drinks were the actual worst??? Iso-Pur I think they were called? They left this like, wet-paper type gunk in my mouth every time I drank it, and I could only have like a shot glass at a time so I can’t imagine what it’d be like drinking the entire damn thing.. ew..
I actually have never had pinto beans, somehow. I’ll have to give that a shot! I’m really picky about my proteins so I’m glad you mentioned that :D
My parents have taken to instead of making full-sized burgers on the grill they’ll make little slider burgers instead, and I can eat them on those little sweet Hawaiian Rolls or with no bun at all depending on how my stomach feels that day. They always are juuust right and since you split them into smaller portions, I can usually eat off a single pound of ground beef for a couple days or more if my parents would let me.
I always have a hard time portioning my “classes” though - like, if I were to eat 7 bites of something, it should be like 3 bites protein, 2 bite carbs, 2 bite fruit/veg or whatever.. I still haven’t mastered that, so I often just do what I enjoy and it works out. I’m not losing any more weight from my initial heavy drop after the operation, but I’m at the same weight I was when I plateaued at Wellspring so I guess that means this is where my body wants to stay, even if that’s not what a BMI calculator says I should be. (And honestly, screw BMI calculators too.)
Yeah, pinto beans are great! And although I try not to mind those details anymore, I do have to note they’re fat free. So I put a lot of cheese on it and it’s so good!!!
Oh gosh, I only drank the premier protein shakes? And I only liked the chocolate one so all I drank was chocolate protein shakes for like a month it sucked! I also drank a lot of chicked broth the first week or two after the operation- that I didn’t get sick of b/c I love savory and salty food. XD
Oooh, that’s smart! I’ll mention the sliders thing to my dad. ouo It’s hard for him to cook now b/c my portions are so small. Speaking of protein, I’ve never heard of the dividing the nutrients bite by bite! I just sort of eat and my body lets me know if it needs more protein, lmao.
How long ago did you get the surgery? I’m about 8 months post-op and I’m still losing, though a lot more slowly now. I don’t know when it’ll stop, tbh. O.o And yeah, the BMI scale is a really inaccurate way to measure health. I try to pay little mind to it, honestly.
I’m right around the lowest weight I’ve been since after camp #1. I kinda hope I plateau soon because I don’t want my weight to dip too low???
