So What's For Dinner Tonight



Recommended Posts

T-bone steak (I share with hubby, I get the filet part) with vanilla-fig balsamic reduction and bleu cheese crumbles (for him) and Italian green Beans and a small green salad. I still like to cook!

I had some roasted speggiti squash, a few slices of zucchini grilled, mashed cauliflower, 5 chicken wings.. I am not sure serving sizes yet but I feel like in my mind maybe I'm over eating. I eat about what I would serve a toddler overall..

Are you able to eat the flour tortilla? How far after surgery were you able to eat them?

I made the family chicken alfredo. Ohh it smelled so good.

However, I had tuna salad and cucumbers. Oh and my nightly Protein shake.

Jenna, I'm eight months out and I can still eat them if I take small bites and chew really well. Don't do that often, though, as I feel really full on not much nutrition!

Tonight I had about half a cup of mixed tortellini, mushrooms and very soft beef in a little gravy. It was good and filling. I don't do Pasta very much either, but it was just about three tortellinis!

I go out for soft shell chicken tacos all the time! I just scrape the guts out and throw the taco away. Add a little retried Beans and guacamole and mix it all together. That way my husband and I both enjoy going out fir Mexican.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
