Magic Bullet



Recommended Posts

Well I am a week out of surgery and starting puree'd foods. LOVE my magic Bullet!! I am making taco Soup tomorrow night and I will run it through the bullet and enjoy with my family. Also love my cup warmer. It really keeps my food hot while I take 1/2 hour to eat!!

Care to share the taco soup recipe? Sounds yummy. Also looking for something new. Never heard if it before. Thanks!

I'm Mexican too and i cook. I am one month out and not

So much missing the food as I do the flavor. I'm ready to add comino,oregano.serranos,tomatoes,cilantro onions and my taste buds are

Going crazy. My dr says that I am adding too many Condiments to my food. I need to add one new food/flavor at time. That I am being overly ambitious for texture and flavor. If I try to introduce too much too soon I feel ill and may vomit. And there is nothing worse than being sick. I can manage a soft cheese and peppercorn crusted turkey deli meat. Uhhh I am craving a chicken Pozole and some chicken tamales for the holidays with some piping hot Beans. I make a carne guisada that people knock down the door for and that is off the menu too for some time yet. I hope this phase passes soon my Mexican tastes buds need a fix!

I got a bullet and ended up giving to my daughter-in-law for my grandaughter's baby food. I then got a moulinex on an auction site here in NZ. It was really cheap so I don't mind. I just want some good eating and living recipes for after I have my surgery on the 29th of November. Are they any recipe books out there?

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!
