  1. Can someone please give me some good ideas to add to refried beans? Something that's quick and goood.. I work full time and go to school so I want something that won't take long to make? Thank you in advance
  2. I went to work after 7days and I was fine.. I work in a office setting too plus my job didn't pressure me a lot
  3. I told my co worker which she is my biggest supporter. She's always searching new protein food I can have. I work for attorneys and the wife keeps calling me skinny lol nothing suspicious though
  4. I have the same insurance and did not have a problem. I was approved within 8 days including weekend
  5. I don't drink any kind of juices... Just water... I eat a sugar free candy daily just to keep my sugar normal but that's it.. Size surgery I did not like any of the juices. I love water and I can drink a lot at once. So no clue what I'm doing wrong Uhg
  6. Can I have these foods during mushy foods? This is my third week post surgery
  7. No I've been stalling the past 2 weeks. I do not like protein powder or anything that has to do with protein shakes.. I guess I will say good bye to the watermelon and potatoes.. Wahhhhh now I have to find some other food to eat haha
  8. Be been using my fitness pal and my own personal food journal to keep track of everything I eat. All I've been eating is yogurts, cottage cheese, SF pudding (not every day), mashed potatoes (not everyday) and watermelon. It never ends up being more than 480 calories a day and I walk every day during my lunch break for an hour and I go the gym and workout for another hour. I have no idea how many calories and carbs I should eat a day. Yesterday I had 489 calories, 8.5 fat, 72.4carbs and I am freaking out and I know this is from mashed potatoes and watermelon and finally 35.4 g of protein(I have trouble with this but I know it will get better soon) Today I had 455 calories, 5.7 fat, 51.9 carbs and 51g of Protein. Am I doing something wrong guys? I eat cottage cheese twice a day because each time is 16g of protein and only 4g of carbs and 90 calories.. I am so nervous about the carbs... I am trying so hard. The only reason why I like the mashed potatoes are because it's hot food and makes me feel normal and full like really full. I tried to have broth but I was still hungry.. Any suggestions? I am a very picky eater and I always hated cottage cheese but this one is whipped and I am able to tolerate it.. Ohh and I finally started to take my Vitamins everyday even though I hate them I still take them...
  9. Omg you think so? That makes me feel so much better. I've been eating cottage cheese twice a day which equals 32g alone. Plus I have light and fight Greek yogurt which is 12g of protein each. I guess I'm not doing so bad
  10. I just added you guys donaboss
  11. I'm feeling better. I never liked cottage cheese until yesterday..my amazing co-worker always searching new protein food for me. She tells me to get the whipped cottage cheese which is only 4g of carbs and 16g of protein for 4oz. I tried it last night and omg I was in love with it. Still I am not getting more than 30g of protein but that's all I can do for now. I am forcing myself to take the vitamins though. Of course my co-worker is on my ass and always reminding me haha... I don't know what I would do without her. I know she doesn't want me to get sick so she is always checking up on me
  12. I feel you... I've been on a stall for the past 10 days .. Monday will be 3 weeks and I decided not to weigh myself until next Saturday and I am really disappointed. I eat right and work out so don't get what the problem is
  13. Hi.. I got my period literally 4 days before surgery and I was freaking out. Luckily mine don't last more than 5 days so day of surgery was my last day. They let me have my own undies and pad until I got to the surgery room and once I got there, they gave me their own huge pad lol. It wasn't bad at all. Worked out fine and thank god I didn't have any cramps.
  14. I went to the gym on my 8th day and only used the treadmill. Now I'm almost 3 weeks and my doc said I could use the bike and no more then 10lbs in weights
  15. Hi guys, I know you all share your usernames here but I have no idea how to add y'all . My screen name is donaboss.. I would love to see what you all eat after surgery.. Not to sound creepy.. I am only getting about 400 calories and I'm on my third week. Everything disgusts me besides yogurt. Thanks guys
  16. Really? Good then lol. I had the chicken and it went down smoothly with no problem at all. Plus this way I will get my protein
  17. I have it but I didn't like it
  18. Ops sorry for the misspells. I was typing fast. I don't want to rely on baby food but having I hear and there until I am able to eat other foods. It's really hard with phase 2...
  19. I am sure you are laughing at my title but hear me out... I had surgery December 30th. I'm on phase 2 and having a really hard time getting Protein in and my Vitamins. The most protein I've gotten is 25g. I am not a Protein shake woman. I tried them all and I hate them all. I want to gag just thinking about it. Same thing with the vitamins I barely take them. I am sick of Greek yogurts. I am also disappointed that I'm on a stall and not losing anything. Today I went to my grocery store and I bought baby food. Yes you heard correct. I got this brand called Beech Nut and I got the chicken and chicken gravy and I have to say that I loves it. It has 7g of protein for 2.5oz... Not bad at all and 0 carbs 70 calories. I also got sweet cord which only had 2g of protein. Do you guys thing it's bad to eat it at least until phase 3 where I can have Protein Bars which will be easier to get the protein?!
  20. Ops. Well I never ever drink milk so I wouldn't know. Where would you find it at a supermarket?
  21. I've been looking for the post where everyone said to drink a certain milk to go to the bathroom. Anyone know? Please help. Thank you!
  22. Just close your eyes and pray. Good luck
