Hi,

Do you make your Protein Shake from scratch or add the PB2 to a pre-made Protein shake? I have some pb2 and wasn't sure what to add it to. I am having a difficult time getting in my protein, can't eat meat yet(7 wks. post op) or it makes me gag, so I'm getting my protein only through some Peanut Butter on a few crackers, and recently a cheesestick or two.

Can you eat yogurt or cottage cheese? That's how I got most of my protein early on. Most definitely eating a mostly carb diet will affect your loss. We need some carbs for energy and to help with the weight loss, but protein is very important in the healing process. Have you tried several shakes to Se if you can do any? I use Optimum Nutrition shakes. They have ZERO protein taste and are so good. I order from Amazon but GNC carries them too although more expensive. Keep searching for things you can get in cuz it's important. Good luck. If you need any help just ask! ;)

tuna snackit 17grs of protein! It's pretty good and an easy way to meet Protein goals!

I've seen this or something like it. It sounds like a great portable meal. I wish I could tolerate tuna. It makes me sick every time. :-(

You use the dry ranch mix. 1 oz. dry ranch mix plus 1-16oz container of mushrooms. It says use 1 stick of butter. Melt butter add ranch to butter stir well. Poor over mushrooms cook on low in crock pot 4 hrs. I usually triple the recipe, but only add 2 sticks of butter... They cook down and are delicious!!!

Just wondering. Do you cook broccoli in the crockpot with the mushrooms? You didn't mention broccoli in the recipe above.

      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!
