I can drink any alcohol but the sugary mixers make me feel like crap. Beer doesn't hurt like everyone scared me into thinking would happen. I don't have it often and sip it slow and only have one. I found out the hard way that my alcohol tolerance is way low. Just take it slow and you'll find out what works for YOU.

My surgery was 12/22 and I'm down 35 pounds so I'm happy. I have good and bad days with eating. One day everything goes down well, the next nothing does. I'm averaging about 500—600 calories per day. I had a follow up with my NUT and she wants me to drink more Water. I average about 62 oz per day. I told her that with waiting 30 minutes before & after my 3 meals per day plus the 30 minutes it tales for me to eat that is 4.5 hours of my day I can't drink. The struggle is real! I keep trying!

I also have an egg foo young recipe and eggnog that are great, too.
Cannoli Cream:
1 Cup of fat free ricotta
1 TBSP fat free/sugar free instant pudding mix (vanilla, cheesecake, etc…)
1/3 Cup of Water
1/6 Cup powdered milk
1/2 to 1 tsp. extract (vanilla, rum, almond, etc…)
Blend all in a blender or bullet.
Nutrition for the whole thing (it is actually 3-4 meals for me)
Fat-0, carbs-17.5, fiber-0, Protein 25, Calories-185

Italian Sausage
1 lb. 93% lean groung turkey
4 minced garlic cloves and or 2 tsp garlic powder (depends on how much garlic you like)
1 1/2 tsp paprika
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp fennel seed (or more to taste)
1 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper or cajun seasoning
1/8 tsp anise seed
2 tsp parsley
1 TBSP red or burgundy wine
Mix all together and use in any recipes* that call for Italian sausage (I’ve fooled MANY people) If you like spicy Italian sausage, you can also add a pinch of red pepper flakes. It is great grilled for burgers or in lasagna.
*My favorite thing to do with it is to flatten it into one large or several small patties, with a lip around the edge. Place on a sprayed baking sheet, top with your favorite low carb sauce, crushed tomatoes or fresh tomatoes, low fat or fat free cheese, veggies etc… Bake on bottom rack at 425* till it is done to your liking. It is a cross between a deep dish and meatlover’s pizza.

Mashed Cauliflower:
cook cauliflower then blend with immersion blender or bullet (they won't taste 'potato-y if you use a regular blender)
Add laughing cow wedges, ranch powder, garlic, onion or whatever else you like.
Protein Pancakes:
Vanilla Protein Powder, baking powder, egg beaters till pancake batter consistency, cook like pancakes. You can also add plain FF Greek yogurt or FF ricotta.
I'll post more recipes tomorrow, as I don't have them with me at the moment
