LOLZ!! So I made it last night, cuz I like the vinegar to marinate in. Had my usual one egg scramble with cheese and about 2 tbsp of the salad, sans avocado because they were all hard as rocks. It was delish! I probably could have had just a smidge less as I am pretty full, but I m happy to have had a treat! I miss veggies!! I have never really liked cooked vegetables other than broccoli or green beans. So it's 1030 am and I already have 40 plus protein in. I feel like I'm good to go!

Great update. I got some and tried to make Pho. I rinsed like crazy but didn't think to cook em up, just dropped them in the soup. Was not wild about the texture. Where did you find the Zeroodles???

Just talked to nutritionist. She agrees I will not die! But she hemmed and hawed and made sure to remind me to always eat protein first. I will, I promise. But just a few yummy bites!!!

I always get all my protein, and I would only eat this delicacy if that were the case! I've already hit 60 for the day and will have 75 at day's end! I need a yummy vegetable/fruit delight!

I am 6 weeks out. I am gonna peel a cucumber and de-seed it, peel a tomato and an avocado, cut them up and put a little vinaigrette over it and eat it. WILL I DIE??????????????????

So I'm not really back on caffeine, but I had such a jones today for a cuppa joe after lunch. So I poured about a quarter cup of coffee, added a no sugar-added hot chocolate and some milk. SO TASTY! And then, miracle of miracles, about an hour later BAM! Clean bowels!!!!!!! I am ecstatic! What a relief! So tired of microscopic bunny turds! Wahooo!!!!

I am so sorry. I literally cannot imagine anything worse. Peace be with all of you.

You are superwoman!!!!!!!!!!

Sold out on Amazon. Only available currently at Costco's in the Northwest. I am sad.

If pickled things lead to gastric cancer, I'm a dead woman. Also, I ate 2 pickle chips and survived and was HAPPY!!! I'm not typically a rule breaker, but I AM a pickle junkie.

Are pickled and fermented things OK? Pickles, kimchi, etc are my faves! I wanna eat them REAL bad! What say ye???

One day, VERY soon, you'll feel better and rejoice at your own bravery and accomplishments!!!

Yes, I'm 4 weeks out and my left side still hurts like a bear. Was at surgeon today and she said a lot of trauma happens to that area and it can hurt for quite a while.

Well lookie here! I ate 2.3 oz of lean beef (RARE) tonight. I slowed WAAAY down and chewed the snot out of it. No problems at all!!!! Maybe I was gobbling that chicken. Learning to take a breath, set the fork down and look at hubby for cues!

I saw them too. Am headed to Costco Saturday to purchase!

Thanks, guys. I appreciate the feedback.

I have stopped eating it. Was just wondering if it was a thing. To this point, I've handled everything I've tried, so I was just surprised that I couldn't do it.

So I'm 4 weeks out and am cleared for soft things, meant included. So, I thought rotisserie chicken thigh meat was pretty soft. Have tried 3 times now to eat 2 or 3 ounces of it and I have gotten SICK every time. No barfing, but miserable fullness, nausea and pain that lasts for hours! Feels like it isn't digesting at all. Is that a thing? Is it hard for the tiny pouches to grind up meats? I have stopped even trying that at this point. I can do ground chicken or sausage-like consistencies, but I don;t even want to LOOK at my fave rotiss. chicken now!

See now, I like me a BIG boy! Of course, I also like athletic builds. But I am looking for a beautiful heart and soul and will not limit myself based on how someone looks, what color they are, what size, etc. I hope to find someone who is looking for the same!

My menu for today, at 4 weeks out: Breakfast: Premier shake 160 cals, 30 protein Snack: Chobani Greek "hint of Strawberry" yogurt 120 cals. 12 protein Lunch: 1/5 of a hormel prepared meal with 20 g of protein 200 Cals, 10 protein Snack: Turkey/cheese roll up 142 cals 5 protein Dinner: 1/2 serving of bariatric cookbook "Egg Roll in a bowl" 134 cals, 10 protein Snack: 1/2 Premier shake 80 cals, 15 protein I try to get between 800 and 100 cals per day, but some days I don;t make it. I ALWAYS make my 75 or more of protein. Today looks like about 830 cals, 82 protein, 42 net carbs, 8 fiber, 27 fat. I am losing about .65 pounds per day according to my app. I have not yet stalled, although I'm sure I will.

Yes, my Batty love! I am entering semester 2 of my master's program next week. I had surgery mid-December so that it would fall between semesters! I can't wait for my classmates to see me again in awhile!

OMG. I crave salad! And more specifically, tomato, cucumber and red onion salad! OH MMMMMmmmmm!!!!!! I don't think I can have until 10 weeks out, which sucks!!!!

Dang you really do look fantastic!!

Wunnerful good!

I hate kale. ?
