Food related regrets...
I had a veggie burger patty for lunch today and thanks Dr Prager for the yuk feeling! Never ever again! I so want to vomit just to get rid of it but since my sleeve vomiting is not my forté. So what foods have been evil to you that you have sworn off ??

Spicy food sensitivity
I can eat spicy but I take a daily PPI to counter act it. I just finished lunch which was a chicken jalapeño sausage dipped in Frank's Red hot and I'm all good!

Anyone not telling anyone about their surgery?
I have a large Italian family both mine and my partners so two large Italian families to deal with and I had surgery and told no one except for my partner. No one has guessed because I spread the word that I was seeing a nutritionist and turning a new leaf. It can be done ! [emoji2]

Funny observation about clothes post-surgery
Agreed! I splurged on j.crew for nicer wear but for every day I hit up Target for clothing I'm ok with shrinking out of and when I shrink out of the j.crew stuff......I will take everything to the tailor to be altered.

Does it get easier to get in your fluids?
It does get much easier....I am 2 months out from surgery and the first few weeks I really missed chugging water but now I can chug if I want!

For the love of Scallops !
They are so easy make and I always buy the frozen ones.....I only grocery shop one day a week so fresh isn't really an option for me .

Funny observation about clothes post-surgery
Congratulations! I'm getting to the frustration point especially when I dress to go out and all of my nice clothing is too big and it makes me feel frumpy...... Hit the online j.crew sale this weekend to get some suitable clothing for going out because I can't take it anymore.....makes me feel yuk

For the love of Scallops !
I am loving scallops! Per myfitnesspal one large scallop its 35 calories and 5 grams of Protein. They are beautiful little chunks of protein and a blank canvas so you can pair them with so many flavors! My current favorite is garlic and then I use Chardonnay to deglaze the pan and make a light sauce ..... What's your favorite way to make scallops ?

What Is the Biggest Mistake You Made?
Slacking on water and protein.....it out me into a stall and once I got serious about both I started to lose again and haven't stopped!

Cheese
I should also say I can not deal with smoked cheeses or even worse goat cheeses. I can't handle to flavor and after taste of goat cheeses.....

Premier Protein Shakes New Flavor!
I'm shopping for the ice cream attachment for my kitchen aid mixer..I might make the strawberry into ice cream...maybe that will help lol

Cheese
I love cheese! Extra sharp cheddar is always in the fridge and lately we have been addicted to jalapeño Monterey Jack. Anyone tried moon cheese? I get it at Starbucks and it's like freeze dried crunchy cheese..IT IS AMAZING !!!

Premier Protein Shakes New Flavor!
I can't wait to try them but I'm a Coatco girl not Sams so I might have to wait. I prefer chocolate, vanilla is ok and strawberry is my absolute least favorite but I'm drinking them because I bought an entire case. But it's my last case of strawberry....lol I'm too stubborn to just throw them away lol

My body thinks it's funny!

What can I do with...cauliflower?
I love the riced cauliflower from Trader Joes. I use it to make "tater tots" and "fried rice" both recipes were posted here in the recipe forum.

Cauliflower Pizza Crust. ????
I have not tried the cauliflower crust but I do make pizza with wonton skins as the crust. I also use a pizza stone and it makes the wonton skins super crisp. It doesn't necessarily compare to the Gino's or Lou Malnatis but I don't want the calories of those places anyways! And this Italian Chicagoan is perfectly happy with wonton pizza.

Lymphedema Treatment
How is this for cute boots? After a couple months of PT, we were able to get the boots for home treatment. Now, I can do treatment at home (3x a day). ImageUploadedByBariatricPal1457827778.047751.jpg Oh wow congrats! I bet you see a huge difference now!! Im so impatient I would be the one trying to push and wear them all night while I slept! lol
