Looking for a fun gang to "travel" with!!!! :clap2::hippie::messenger3::shade::spy::hail::rockon::loco:

PigsRFlying,

I did that for my clear liquids diet. I just dissolved some protein powder in it and watered it down a but and drank it with a glass of water. It's a good idea b/c of how many flavors they have. I do it now, too, with a little milk or some cream of wheat tossed in instead of noodles.

Gives some iron, and calcium and protein if you make it my way and it's better than broth all the time.

I went out with a friend today. We went to Panera. 1st time in a restaurant since my surgery (Aug. 8th). She had a salad & I asked them if they would put some veg. soup in the blender for me. She did. It wasn't bad. But boy are my choppers ready to be used.But hey, at least I made it thru my 1st time in a restaurant good. I was actually proud of myself, because I really wanted some kind of sandwich, with really good thick, bread.

Yay! Yea, my jaw locked up when I was chewing a chewable vitamin today and I realized it's because my mouth hasn't been used!

Hi everyone. I was banded a week ago today. It's been an interesting journey.

BTW, Does anyone know how I can get my ticker into my profile somewhere so that when I post my ticker will show up? Thanks

I have no idea how to do tickers. I'd be interested in the info. as well. & also do you have to retype all the info. under each message as to date you were banded, your doc. where your from & all that goood stuff or is there a way to get that to automatically come on your pages as well.

hey. ive figured it out. if you go to the ticker site that everyone is making them in, you create your ticker and then use the BBcode and put it in your signature under UserCP. Also, the information that you want to put in regarding your loss and fills and such, if you keep that in your signature, it will appear on all your posts and you just update your signature when you have new information.

Also to update it, just go to one of your posts, and click on the ticker. It'll take you to you ticker profile at tickerfactory and you can just put in the new values and it'll give you what you need.

Oh, okay thanks, I appreciate it.

Oh! The BEST THING EVER!!!

Campbels Healthy Request

Mexican Style Chicken Tortilla Soup (98% Fat Free)

In a blender, Mircowave for 1min 33 secs, and put a spoonful of

Low Fat Sour Cream in the middle. It is the tastiest thing I've had in weeks.

Healthy Choice makes one too that's REALLY good! (20 grams of protein too) After blending I had to add a little broth to thin it. Good idea with the sour cream!

Yum! Three more days and I can get to mushies! Scrambled eggs and purred goop here I come!

I've learned from the last 2 weeks that if I sip my pureed soup instead of drinking it that I get filled up sooner. Hope this helps someone.

I updated the August list. Now there are 190 of us Crazy Ates.

I meant sip from a spoon instead of drinking.

I got mushies today-Yay-I had cream of wheat for breakfast, my banana flavored protein shake with skim milk & I am so excited to eat supper. My doc. said no eggs til week 5. I thought that was a mushy??

Heh. My doc said that I could have watered down cream of wheat in my full liquids stage, but to make sure I drink while I eat it. I mixed it with protein powder and light yogurt smoothie. Yum.
