My day started too early today because I thought I had to be up to buy P!nk concert tickets, but they didn't go on sale until tomorrow so that alarm clock that woke me up at 9 am was a bit fruitless. I’m not a morning person; I really have to go out of my way to fix my schedule to adjust for being awake before 10 am. I've been working graveyard and night shifts since I was 18 [...]

So you've had your Gastric Bypass. You are a year and a half out of surgery and you are sitting at the computer reading about a new delicious recipe from someone that has an amazing talent in the kitchen. You know, you’re visiting a site like The World According to Eggface or Bariatric Foodie and suddenly, out of nowhere, your stomach growls. You remember that sensation don’t you?
