Hi Laura~ Love your attitude regarding your journey!~ Congrats on your weight loss! Goodness.. I wish I were not able to smell food :) LOL.. The food experience has always been part of my travel experience.. now I make sure to pack WL friendly snacks.. and it helps to curve the thoughts.. most of the time ;)..~ Also, thanks for the tip on the book. I read "When food is love" years ago.. forgot the authors name.. but I just ordered another one. Thank you~ Keep up the great hard work! oxo

Hola Laura, I know what you mean about the lack of 'food interest', I have it and I like it! It's always good to see you and I'm so happy to see how well you are doing. If I can make a suggestion, if you hold your phone horizontally you will get rid of the black areas. Besos, Monica

It is good to see a video from you. 24 pounds is great. I love the story about you not even smelling the fast food. I love all your nsv's. I think it is great you are reading so many books. I find it fasinating to read about the different food philosophies and advice. I did it a lot before surgery but haven't read much since surgery. I will revist some of my favorites and talk about them when i do.

HelloVsg2016 Oh do! I like the idea of taking what works for our individual situations. It's like a smorgasbord of knowledge!

It really seems like you're in the right headspace. I can relate to what you talked about, I do think about and want food, but when others eat what I can't/won't eat, I really don't feel phased unlike before. I still like to eat but I really don't feel deprived like I once would have. 24 pounds is impressive, you're doing so well!
