By now most of you have come to terms with the problem that can be caused with eating too much cheese on a daily basis.
Throughout our posts together this week many of you right here cited Cheese as being a problem for some reason or another.
Today's "Think Piece" is meant to help you solidify your realization that Cheese isn't BAD, you don't have to cut it OUT you just need to be SMART about it.
And if you are new and can't believe the words I am typing...know that while Cheese is a low carb food we all love and that ALL of our Nuts and Dr's say is OK.....there are post-ops right here and in our Facebook group that number in the thousands who have completely STOPPED losing weight or Regained weight because they were eating "only a little" cheese on pretty much every single thing they ate.

Challenge:
Think about your day to day meals, even the little bites you don't really think twice about.
Are they on point?
Is it time to tighten things up and start swapping cheese sticks for carrot sticks?
Maybe it's time to bust out that set of measuring cups and put batteries in our food scale again?

If you've been doing our March Inspire Diet Challenge you know that one of your daily tasks on each check-in is to weigh yourself.
There's a few reasons we've discussed before, and on our website (this article: https://www.bariatriceating.com/blogs/bariatric-advice-and-support/the-scale-friend-or-enemy ) but there's a bigger reason than the truly important getting to know your body.
It's to make peace with what your MIND seems to think will happen when you start losing weight again.
You see one of the biggest things that no one talks about, and trips EVERYONE up is that during our initial stages as a post op we are dropping a pond or more DAILY.

There are a few things to note:

- Once you log into our new group you will be required to agree to and pay for a $5 membership fee. In exchange for this you’ll be offered $10 Bariatric Eating.com coupon every month you remain a member.
- We will be closing the doors here by the end of September to give everyone the chance to transition.
- Since we made this shift mid-month we have a special coupon just for YOU here that has been posted there...so there's money on the table for you when you come join us!
