2 cans of Artichoke hearts ( cut up into smaller pieces )

Mix it all together, and bake in the oven for about 30-45 minutes.

Chancie: You could slim that down by using low cal mayo or this great new olive oil mayo that is out. Kraft makes it I believe. The olive oil would taste fab with that I bet!

11/2

Breakfast: Oat bar with bluberries, 6 oz non fat milk

Lunch: Hummus snack pack, two slices swiss cheese

Snack: No sugar added applesauce

Dinner: pureed chicken with 2 tbls cheddar and 1 tsp blue cheese dressing. 2 oz pureed carrots, all mixed together. I am not on soft foods anymore I just like my pureed recipes. So much less chewing at the end of a long day.

Late night snack :scared0:: Two (yes two) mini kit cat bars and 4 (yes four) candy corn hershy kisses. Damit! That was like 500 calories. Stupid Halloween candy. It is all gone now. I made candy bags for my coworkers and put them on desks this morning.

Bad day today......

I FORGOT to eat!..... all day!

I had my coffee and Protein as usuall, but after that things got away from me.

I bought a new stove and had to have someone come out and hook up the vent hood, and I had my dryer he had to fix, and then I was in the middle of cleaning house, and yes, it just got away from me.

So I remembered, and took some chiken and brocolli out and I tried to eat, was good going in, but 10 minutes later.......I vomited it all up. it was HORRIBLE !!

Think it was because I waited so long to eat???

I didn't eat too fast....... ( HONEST!! )

But, man it was gross!!

Did you take tiny bites and chew well? I can't imagine why it would come back up if you did, especially if you did not get too full.

Well today I tried DownInSoCal's ham roll-ups (although mine were Turkey) - light cream cheese, artichoke hearts & spinach blended together and spread on deli meat. I added some minced garlic and sea salt to the mixture as well. It is SO YUMMY. Thanks for the suggestion. I have a big bowl (like 6oz - how my perception after VSG has changed) of it in my fridge and I am already looking forward to having it again tomorrow.

Anyway, here's what I had today:

Breakfast: Protein hot chocolate made with coffee

24 oz water

Lunch: 2 turkey roll ups (3oz turkey)

20 oz Water w/ crystal light

Snack: 1 turkey roll up (1.5oz turkey)

20 oz water

Dinner: 1/4 cup leftover taco meat with just a sprinkle of 2% grated chedder and a tbsp of light sour cream and salsa

24 oz water w/ crystal light

Dessert: ?? Probably a BariWise Caramel Crunch Protein Bar (like a 100 Grand candy bar) - yummers!

iLinda, I so wish I could eat like you. I am still on mushies.I want to chew something crunchy so bad. It could be something healthy, I do not care. I did not realize I would miss chewing so much. I know when I get to the whole foods stage I will get to chewX3, but, I am miserable waiting. I am just tired of drinking everything. Okay, my whiny rag is over. Thanks for listening everyone. BTW:The scale at the gym I joined weighs me at 4 lbs lighter than my scale at home! What is up with that? The Dr's scale weighted me 3lbs lighter. I am still going by what my home scale sez. Maybe I will get a new one, one that does body fat as well as weight. Has anyone bought one of thoes and does it help at all? My BMI at the gym was 3 points higher than here also? I need to stop obcessing about the scale and BMI huh? Ok. Off to have my cream of wheat.

Chancie -

What Protein Powder do you put in your coffee? 52 g protein - wow! I had that same Lean Cuisine the day before yesterday. I couldn't finish it all. I had to laugh because never before could I imagine myself not being able to eat a WHOLE Lean Cuisine. :mellow:

Chancie - Eat it! I spread mine in two slices of swiss, colby, munster, or other cheese and roll it up, lunch. I also put it on lunch meats. You can put it on crackers or pita chips too too. I also eat it straight. Some people like it on hard boiled eggs.< /p>

Linda: When are you going to post pics? You always eat so good and do good with your Water. You are like the model VSG'r.

Yesterday:

Breakfast: 8 oz steamed milk

Snack: Halloween cookie! It was good

Lunch: pureed chicken with a little shredded cheddar and 1 tsp blue cheese dressing, and pureed carrots. About 5 oz in total. Took me over an hour but I wanted the carrots bad. They are so sweet and fab when pureed.

Dinner: 4 oz refried Beans with a sprinkle cheddar and dollap light sour cream. I didn't finish it all.

Down in Socal -

No, not a model VSG'r - my weakness is currently RF Wheat Thins. I haven't bought another box so hopefully I can resist them. My family and I eat out several times a week after ball games and I definitely eat some of the "wrong" things at those times, I just don't have very much of it. My goal on most days is to eat well for Breakfast, lunch and snack so I can have whatever I want for dinner. If a happen to be home for dinner, I usually eat well; if we go out, it's hit or miss.

As for pictures, I will have to get my husband to take some new ones to post. I starting to feel the pressure :mellow:

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
