Tonight my husband is going to the camp, so it is just me and the kiddo's. They are wanting Popeye's for supper and I am kinda stressing out. Pre surgery, Popeye's was on of my weaknesses. Tonight is going to be a test. I am not tempted in the least for the chicken but I am just wondering what do I get. I know that they have mashed potatoes and red beans. I am thinking that either one of those would be okay? Or if I should just stay away completely and get something at home?

Being sleeved 12/14/10 you probably shouldn't be eating whole foods yet, the mashed potatoes with a bit of gravy might be OK but if you're like me you won't eat much. I think I would take a jar of pureed chicken, Gerbers baby food is one. It's 2.5 oz and makes a meal for me. I've been really turned off by food lately so it would be easy for me, if you are still attracted to food then it may be a real challenge.

I am not attraced to food at all but I don't think that I could do the baby food. It totally turns me off and can not bring my self to eat it. I know that maybe I should but I can't. I may just get the mashed potatoes and share with my little boy. I know that he would like them. Or I may just eat my cottage cheese.

Now that I am on regular foods the choices aren't as bad but still bad enough that it makes me not what to eat out! We traveled 2800 miles over Christmas so we had to eat out some! I learned that McDonald's grilled chicken (just the meat) is a good meal with Protein. One time when we stopped at a gas station I grabbed beef Jerky and a tea and that was great!

Before I was on solids I didn't go out at all. If my family wanted to that was fine they could but I would make myself something at home!
