Prayers to everyone in Boston!

I THINK....the 3 1/2 week stall have finally broke (dear lord please). I got on the scales yesterday and had lost a pound, checked again today to make sure that pound had 'stuck' and lost a other.....hallelujah!!!!!!

Watermelon might be my favorite food EVER. I'm hoping it still works for me. I've eaten entire watermelons by myself. :sigh: those days are over. Have you ever had a HOPE ARKANSAS one? They are supposedly the best ever. I'm planning to go to this in the next couple of years. http://www.hopechamberofcommerce.com/festival_info.htm

Went out to El Mariachi tonight. I got a ground beef burrito with Beans and rice. It was absolutely delicious. And I have leftovers for the entire weekend

Homemade Pinto Beans with ham and a tiny bit of cornbread....delicious and possibly the most filling meal I've had post op, couldn't even got 1/2 a cup down....but still oh so yummy.
HW 312, pre-op (lap-band) 294, pre-op (RNY) 255, surgery date 2/11/13, goal weight 154, current weight 225

I splurged. Ate about a spoonful of all the yumminess at Easter dinner. Baked Mac and cheese, stuffing, carrots, potatoes, prime rib, croissant. Lots of bad stuff, but won't have any more of it til Thanksgiving

Whole wheat pizza with green peppers and onions.

Yummy....

Salsa??? Does anyone eat salsa on things. Is it good or bad? Thought about putting it on my refried Beans.< /p>

I licked a dorito. How pathetic am I.

I was having the hardest time too. So now I used unfavor Unjury. I put in crystal lite fruit punch. But it still had a sort of wierd smell. So I got a cup with a lid. Now I cant even tell that is protein. Even my family cant tell.

Changing the subject...
I picked up an idea from YouTube from someone who was on purees and mushy foods: hummus using Gerber Graduates as the vehicle. I got those long cynlinder puff things that kind of dissolve in your mouth, veggie dip flavor and dipped in plain hummus. Omg, it was like the greatest thing I ever tasted.

5 small Italian beef meatballs with a little spaghetti sauce and melted shredded cheese

Actually cooked another meal, a very nice garden salad with Romaine lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, bell pepper, seasoned with sea salt and pepper, and cooking whole wheat spaghetti, with famers market lean ground chuck made into small meat balls. With hunts sauce with fresh mushrooms and garlic first Pasta dish since way before surgery.

Okay went to doctors today. Ask about Hair loss and basically the only way to try to avoid is to make sure to get my Protein and Vitamins. But basically if you going to lose some there no magic pill to stop it. she assured me I wont go bald. I asked her about the supplement and she said I could take it. but really she didnt think it would make a difference. she said it would just be one more thing too take. And my money too spend. She did say hair loss happens between 3 to 6 months if it happens. she said it is usually minimum.

That test is easy breezy!! They put you to sleep and you wake about 10 or 15 later. You will be sleepy the rest of the day but no pain at all.
