    Finely chop low fat pizza ingredients you’d like.

    Mix with favorite sauce (I get low sugar and add Splenda)

    Cut wontons into smaller pizza roll size squares.

    Lay one square down and fill with about a teaspoon of pizza mixture. Top with second square with a bit of Water in edges to seal them.

    Air Fry at 375 for 6 minutes.

    Actually, nothing at this point is going to stop what's happening. Since the "loss" portion of the issue is what's happening right now, and when that starts happening, you can't do anything about it. Everything you take at this point is only going to help the new hair that's growing in.

    I drink 1 cup fairlife skim mixed with 1 cup fairlife chocolate every morning for breakfast during my commute to work. Have for about 6 months.

    I usually take whatever I have for dinner for lunch. It’s just easier for me to do that. My coworkers love when I bring fish but it’s such a small amount it doesn’t stink the office up lol
    Im a few weeks behind you but I basically am eating ...yogurt, cottage cheese, Protein Water or Protein Shake, fish, chili, tofu, tuna in a pouch. I bring a bunch to work and keep it in a section of the fridge so I have food on hand.

    What I did initially was weigh out 3-4 ounces of different flavors of beans... Bush's has quite a few varieties that are really good. They kept well in the refrigerator and were satisfying.
    After a couple of weeks with Beans I started making my salads on Sunday to take in for the week, and I load them up with all different types of vegetables, some nuts and seeds, maybe some chickpeas, and always either lean chicken breast cut into really small bites or hard boiled egg. I find that it works out really well and all I have to do is set aside about an hour on Sunday to take care of it.

    And I should add, I know what to eat but physically having to pack lunches is giving me a mental block. I also don’t necessarily have to pack, as we have plenty of refrigerator space at work to take a weeks worth of stuff.

    I am going back to work next week. I work a ten hour day, and commute an hour each way for a total of 12 hours away from home. I need ideas on what to pack for breakfast/lunch/snacks. The only food that I don’t like are plain hard boiled eggs. Pinterest ideas really aren’t helping. Throw your ideas at me please :)

    Yay!!! Sorry I didn’t weigh in earlier on this convo as I just found it a minute ago! Gotta tell you, it was the best suspense story I’ve read in quite awhile! So proud of your strength and perseverance! And kudos to your daughter (she seems to have a bit of her moms strength). So glad the surgery went well and I pray for a peaceful recovery.

    Speaking as a mental health counselor and a fellow sleever, you are all on the right track. Use distraction, get moving, music, journal, art...whatever helps your mood. The thing is we can't go to our comfort foods anymore. That's going to make this journey challenging as we figure out new (hopefully healthier) habits for when we are feeling emotionally challenged (depression, anxiety, stress, anger, etc.) Of course, I'm biased, but having someone to talk to like a therapist will be really helpful.

    Yea, we are allowed to try them in soft stage. We do Protein first, veg, and then a starch. They focus on all of those things but know that you want to fee normal too and have variety. Thanks for sharing your experience.

    The serving size is a cracker and a 1/4 slice of bread, toasted. I don’t think that reverts to my old ways. Good lord 😒

    Thank you. I plan on not putting anything in that doesn’t have nutritional value. Are you saying your plan does not include grains?

    I am just wondering if any of you have whole wheat tortillas in your plan? During the soft stage I am allowed to add crackers and whole wheat bread. Do you think mini whole wheat tortillas would fit in this category? Not a big enough deal to warrant a call to the NUT, just was a conversation I was having with my son about certain foods.

    I'm a week post op and mostly my stomach aches when I stand up - and I think it's just b/c my belly is pulling. Otherwise they did give me a LOT of oxycotin. I didn't take any either. I have NO idea what I'm going to do with this stuff..LOL. My incisions do itch tho'. A lot. Which I guess means they are healing.
