Tried some beef roast and 2 carrots. Must have not chewed well enough cuz it made me sick! And I was looking forward to it all day too! An hour later had the usual yogurt with Protein granola. Always sits well.

I hate it when I look forward to something and it disappoints, either because it doesn't taste they way I expected or it makes me sick. Yogurt is my go-to after a bad food experience, also. I hope your stomach settled okay, Dorian.

Tonite I made my hubby some home made turkey meatballs w/wheat Pasta. I skipped the pasta but ate two meatballs and they were delicious! I had some bananas that were overripe so I whipped up three banana breads - one plain, one w/pecans, and one w/chocolate chips. Two go to work tomorrow and one goes to my mother-in-law. I like how I can bake and not want to eat things. The smell of the bananas actually turned my stomach. :-)

I've been baking banana Protein muffins lately and peddling them to my coworkers. For some reason I like baking even more now than before when I could eat it all.

A very nice piece of cheese (gouda parrano, it tasted like butter!), and some roasted chickpeas.

I'm a vegetarian so typically I do refried vegetarian black Beans, lettuce, olives, Tomato, salsa, natural sour cream, and tamed jalapenos. If I have extra calories sometimes I'll add cheese or Morningstar griller crumbles (vegetarian beef Protein substitute).

I had some trouble with the flank steak. I had this before with no issues. This is probably tmi but when something isn't going down, I can bring it up easily. After my pouch settled down, I tried it again and no problems. I have noticed this before....anyone else have trouble with the first bites and then tried again?

I can't eat steak or shrimp. Two things I use to love to eat before surgery.

I had four shrimp w/cocktail sauce for lunch. For dinner I had 1/2 cup of homemade spicy turkey chili mixed w/1/4 cup refried Beans. Yum! :-)

I ended up taking a veggie burger and crumbled it to look like ground beef and cooked it with salsa and jalapeños and topped it with a little cheese. 20g of Protein

      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!
