Bfast- none( in a rush)

Lunch-(out shopping so I ate Taco Bell) the guts out of a burrito supreme and discarded the tortilla, 1 cup pintos n cheese

Supper-2 oz baked boneless, skinless chicken breast seasoned with Mrs.Dash and a couple of bites of salad.

Water throughout the day. Today was not a very good example of my usual eating patterns but it was honest!

I'm curioius....how come I don't see many of you adding veggies or fruits to your diet?

Speaking for myself personally, because my weight loss has been so slow, I've decided to stick with a high Protein, little-to-no carb diet ... sorta like Atkins (but I do get in about 50 carbs per day) I've found this is the only thing that works for me, at least until I get enough fills to reach my "sweet spot" ... Besides, I haven't liked veggies since I was a kid :rose:

Barilla brand has 10 grams of Protein per serving. I was tickled pink to find this the other day. I usually skip that aisle but happened to go down and spy this product. Hope it helps someone!:)

Thanks for the tip! I have steered clear of Pasta since being banded but will definitely keep an eye out for this as I am sooo craving some! :D

      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!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
