Food Before and After Photos
Yes, thankfully. I'm so sad because big beautiful salads have always been my go-to meal and favourite. That's what I craved the most after surgery. But about 5 min. Into eating one-saliva, stomach cramps, bam. Throw up. So so sad. I'm ok with lettuce wraps, weirdly. And like baby iceberg salads, but those have no flavour or nutritional value Sent from my SM-J727R4 using BariatricPal mobile app

Dinner tonight is a mix of snacks, trying to eat up a gigantic Costco tub of hummus. Carrots, salsa, hummus, string cheese, Turkey pepperoni and tortilla chips. Breakfast this morning was a gluten-free breakfast sandwich from a local bakery with ham, bacon, cheddar, garlic herb cream cheese, tomato, onion and egg. Ate half and saved other for later. Dessert later: zucchini banana bread with peanut butter and chocolate chips. I eat it all over about 45 min. Sent from my SM-J727R4 using BariatricPal mobile app

Craving A Big Salad! When? How much?
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 Sent from my SM-J727R4 using BariatricPal mobile app

How is everyone holding up?
I'm a teacher, I am STRUGGLING. My school is title I so lots of poverty and broken homes, knowing they need connection but overwhelmed with trying to onboard everything about my classroom online ( I teach middle and high school music). I have over 200 kids, so I don't know the best way to reach all of them. I'm also immunocompromised but have gone for a run (which I hate haha) every day to just get a break Sent from my SM-J727R4 using BariatricPal mobile app

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 Sent from my SM-J727R4 using BariatricPal mobile app
