Heads up that you may still want salad but your body might not. Before surgery I LOVED salad, and dreamed of the day i could eat it again. Every time I've had it since (18 months out. Big/small, dressing or none etc) I throw up.

I can handle romaine leaves in a lettuce wrap with extra meat and have to break an unwich into 2 meals

Thought I would check in and see how everybody is holding up though this crisis. Luckily for me my husband is considered essential and still gets to work for 6 hours a day. I am also essential, but I only work one day a week. Hope everyone is doing alright! Take care!

I am VERY fortunate to work from home to begin with as a book editor, so I'm thankful that my job is not in danger.
I've also been able to find food at our fancier stores (because the locals all swamp to the cheaper places like Smiths and Walmart instead) and have been able to keep eating healthy, too.
Can say the empty streets are nice for 7-8am walks, though kinda eerie.

Doing ok! Hoping and praying for a quick resolution. Most of my immediate family members are considered essential and still must travel to work (in NYC) Including an ER doc, biochemist, Police Captain, Security officers, public servants, etc.

Before and after pics of seco a la nortena with navy Beans aka cilantro stew. Last pic is my bfs plate. You can see what the food is much better from his plate since mines is a sloppy mess like usual.

Dinner! .75 cup egg whites, 1 egg, .5 slice gouda, .5 oz shredded cheddar, 100 grams roasted potatoes, salsa and green olives. I haven't gone grocery shopping in 6 weeks and it's KILLING me. But I'm cleaning out my freezer/pantry so progress?!

Sorry, I was eager to take a bite then remembered the pic lol

I have my meals prepped and laid out, stocked up (minimally) on basics.

I don't feel well so I've been forcing calories in and self quarantined as much as possible while rapidly making online lesson plans and trying to deal with the shitshow that is work currently

Family,
With uncertain times approaching some major concerns may arise concerning scarcity (for multiple reasons). Are there precautions or measures you are taking with grocery shopping / food preparation / storage? Any tips or tricks you want to share?
Stay healthy and safe❤

TMI seriously!! You should know the answer to that question better than anyone on this forum. Stupid is as Stupid does. SMH

Ya'll. I miss eating salads. I loved them pre surgery. Like last meal loved. But my stomach hates it. Tonight I had a small salad, went down ok. Immediately threw it up. [emoji24][emoji24][emoji24][emoji24]
