Everybody toots sometimes!!!! ?

Hey - I did say that! Another thing that works is a few swigs of chobani yogurt smoothies. Creamy, drinkable. Yum.

Wonderful!!!!

You have such gorgeous hair!!!!!!!!!! And thanks for bringing the sunshine!

Woks like a charm on the farm!!!

Batty - smear some Vick's under your nose!!!!! ?

Been cruising the interwebs looking for future recipes. Came across these noodles that are essentially carb free. Anyone tried them? They look like an answer to prayer to me!!!

Twinings makes one called Buttermint that is da bomb! Yummy!!!

I'm 9 days out. My back hurts because I can't yet sleep on my left side. Could that be your issue??

YASSSSS! I am a tabasco, sriracha, Franks, Cholula kind of girl and have already put some in my broth at 1 week out. I grow Habaneros and tabasco peppers and love jalapenos. I do not need higher level heat,I'm happy right here. So far no issues. Looking forward to lubing my soft goods with hot sauces!

I thought dumping is when you eat something that is too rich or fatty or whatever and tummy says "no way" and dumps it out of you?

I know, right! Lemme at her!!!!

Ugh. What a crock of crap. As if attraction is all there is at this age! Can I just tell you that if I had a man that paid as much attention to me as you seem to do for your wife, I'd be so freaking in love and happy I'd never leave? You could look like a troll and have 16 toes and I would love you from my soul. THAT is love. Look for it next time!

Of course you aren't late! Pretty sure you are the chairperson!

I didn’t eat the celery. I used it like a spoon!

Like NOW! I dunno why but this makes me happy. I think there is a little part of me that thinks maybe this didn’t or won’t work, and this validated that it did! I a twisted sister!

So I'm 7 days out, just starting purees today. Had to pop in at a work party and of course there was NO food I could eat. I did down a yogurt before I went, but sitting there with food in my face became a THING! So I dipped celery into a smooth dip. And it was good. So I did that several times. Still good. Fast forward 45 minutes until I arrived home and guess what?? Out she goes! I didn't think about the fat content that might have been in ranch dip, I thought, oh well, similar to yogurt, probs has protein, I should be good. Pouchie says "That's a no from me Dawg!!!"

Well that sucks! And is clearly his loss, as you are also CLEARLY a strong, kick-ass woman who just scoffed at him trying to emotionally undermine you and went for it anyway. This way, the next guy gets fresh, gorgeous you!!!! Seriously tho - not to make light of a horrible situation, but I hope you can see who the winning, beautiful soul in this scenario is!!!!!!!

I am one week out today and can now advance to purees and mushies. I have to follow that for 2 weeks, then can move to the next phase. Every surgical team is different.

I start purees today! This should help quite a bit!!!

I got hummus too! I'd eat mud to avoid another "chocolate" shake!!

Fage is the SHITT to those of us with sweetener/sweet problems. You can put any flavor into it so you can decide how much of any flavor works for you. I'm gonna try sriracha next!!! ?

Welcome! Batty VSG and I also got sleeved on the 12th...welcome to the loser's bench!!

NO REGERTS!!!

So I went to the store and was inspired! Fage yogurt has 22g per cup. So I made a pureed Raita. Those of you who enjoy Indian food will know what that is. It came out delish!! I also found some 30g smoothies in the produce section that seem doable and I added a scoop of protein powder to my tomato soup and measured out 5 portions from the one can. It's coming together, I was just at rope's end this morning!!! Thanks for the ideas and support!
