Hi Friends, I have found that I can really enjoy food now without the guilt and fear that I would gain weight. As a post-op WLS patient I want the foods that I do eat to taste good and be enjoyable. The best thing I have found to enhance the flavors of foods is my own personal Herb Garden. Check out Garden.com for all your herb gardening needs.

I am growing my herbs in the kitchen window!
