Cottage cheese



Recommended Posts

See I love cottage cheese so this recipe I gave I also love but don't make it that often or else I would eat it all up, lol. As for liver, yuck, I hate organ meat as for that matter I don't like beef that much anyway, the only beef I will eat nowadays is Wendy's chili and that's it for me. I do mostly chicken, fish, turkey, ham, pork chops ever so often but mostly chicken and fish for me.

Some of my family members add mini marshmellows to it and that is a wonderful add too.

I don't really like cottage cheese but I saw a package with cottage cheese and strawberries together. If you mix them, it's pretty good. It's not as good as Greek yogurt with the fruit in it. That stuff is amazing.

I've never seen that combo, where did you find it? I would like that.

I just saw those combo packs at my local Walmart, I don't care for fruit in my cottage cheese so I didn't grab any. I like chives or Cajun seasoning in mine.

Try Walmart with the regular cottage cheese.

Do you know the amounts of cottage cheese? Or just the recommended serving size?

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
