OJ has a lot of sugar so we use orange crystal light and the vanilla protien power (EAS)and sometimes carb smart vanilla ice cream (Bryers) it is great.

Lol, probably best not to copy yesterday's menu! Mainly champagne and wine, with a bit of Christmas dinner in the middle somewhere. But I did go for a run in the morning.

Today we had Breakfast outside (its summer here) - fresh apricots, cherries and mango, some yogurt. lunch was salmon sashimi.

I think I'm going to make another barbecued peach and ham salad for dinner.

Your able to drink champagne?

Your able to drink champagne?

I've had one fill so far (3 weeks ago today) and I can drink carbonated beverages. Aside from the massive burping from all the air bubbles, the carbonated beverages don't hurt me at all. I drank about half a can of Diet Ginger Ale on Christmas Eve - no problems!

I'm not saying you should do it - I'm just saying it probably won't hurt a bit.

I agree with San Diego Mom, too much, but willing to own up to it. After all, that's why I joined here to be accountable. I didn't cook for Christmas, ate at mom's house and refused to take home a lot of leftovers. I won't cook for New Years either, so I will have to go to someone's elses home and NO leftovers.

I just prayed and asked God to help me, but I have my part to do as well. My DH is no help, he brings home all sorts of junk and I've asked him not to, but what do you do when he continues to do it? I take most of it and put it in the freezer outside cause I'm too lazy to go out and get it. Hope that will help me. I enjoy this time of the year, but it would go okay if DH would help and I would do my part. Thank God, I am continuing to exercise. Well, I've gotten that out and feel much better about things. Sorry, to bore you guys. Today IS a new day.

Maybe can tuna or chicken breast, you can buy those small kits that already have crackers, etc. Beef Jerky,chili (turkey) if you have a way to heat it. You can see what is at the local stores like yogurt, etc. hope this helps.

thanks so much for the great ideas

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      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.
