I'm still waiting for submission/approval... Oh My GOODNESS... this is taking soo long !!! :huh:

The waiting game is always the worst. I was the same way. I didn't have my approval until about a week after the 3rd class. Once I received approval, I was excited and then nervous all over again. Luckily when you get your approval, you will be scheduling your surgery at the same time.

Thanks Nicole... It's been a week already... So I'm crossing my fingers for that they will call any day now... I am really trying to be patient. But geesh...

After

My breakfast, 1 slice of bacon and a homemade veggie egg foo young patty (bean sprouts, bell pepper, green onions, and mushrooms)

I'm not an egg girl in the sense that I don't like omelets, boiled eggs, scrambled eggs. So this is the best way for me to eat an egg.

As you can see, I ate maybe half. Georgette ( my sleeve) is really doing her job.

1 can bean sprouts (I prefer fresh, but I keep a can on stand by)

1 cup egg substitute

3 oz chopped crimini mushrooms

1/4 cup green onions

1/4 cup chopped bell peppers

1/2 tsp chopped garlic

2 T soy sauce

Sautee mushrooms, bell peppers, green onions, and garlic. In a bowl add egg, bean sprouts, soy sauce, and sautéed veggies.

Heat a skillet with a little olive oil, spoon the mixture in to pan to size you want the patty. Brown on both sides.

Because I eat small portions now, I was able to make 10 patties
