Chicken Pot Pie
I liked it, but i was full after just a few bites, and it is 1 of those things i didn't want as left overs. and i just remembered it wasn't KFC it was Boston Market. And so far the only thing i have found that doesn't agree with me is Milk.

Chicken Pot Pie

Protein Drink & 3 Meals A Day?
I am 6months out and still have problems getting in enough protein, so the protein shake helps me get close to my goal. I have also never been a big breakfast eater, so i started protein shakes before surgery to get in breakfast.

Pre-Op Diet A Fail
I didn't have a pre op diet, doctor wanted me to lose 10lbs during 3months with NUT, but i was able to eat normal food up until 6pm the day before surgery. I was told my stomach was larger than he anticapated so the whole my stomach came out of is maybe 1/2 in larger than he had planned. but no other problems.

Dancing Queen Scares The Neighbors
I went walking this past weekend and saw a lady dancing and all i could think is i can't wait till i have lost enough weight to walk sing and dance at the same time.

To The Moms Out There
My Nephew was 5 weeks old when i had surgery, When my sister went back to work a week later i started watching him. I could hold him, carry him and lay him in his bassinet but i couldn't bend down to pick him up. My 12 year old had to help by picking him up and handing him to me for about 3 weeks. So if you are going to have the surgery with your baby so young i would recommend having someone available to help you for at least a few weeks.

Eating Quickly W No Side Effects
I am just short of 6months out, things like pudding have always gone down super easy from the very beginning. I am still working on eating slow, some days it is still hard to remember, and soft things like pudding, jello and yougurt are the hardest to go slowly on.
