Share ideas, What did you eat today ?

:hungry: Isn't it fun saving money on food? Since lap banders can't eat much we can spend more money on new clothes.

Is anyone having a hard time going out to eat? I have found that if you tell the waitress you have had lap band surgery abd aren't able to eat much they will allow you to order off the childrens menu.

Here's my day. I just got my fourth fill, and I'm having a bit of a hard time adjusting.

Breakfast: 1/4 cup cottage cheese

Lunch: Trader Joes Indian Fare Bengali Lentils (1/2 package)

Dinner: Boca Burger with one slice cheese. 1/4 cup frozen blueberries.

Does this seem ok?

I eat what I want about 25% of what I used to eat. I enjoy food way too much to deny myself of all pleasures. My body hasn't told me what it won't digest yet. Oh..and I don't exercise either. I figure right when my body tells me what I can't eat, I'll probably have time to exercise then. *grin*

Lets try that again!

Easy is best for me.

Breakfast - coffee w/ff flavored cream & instant oatmeal

lunch - hard boiled egg and grapes

dinner - Hormel's new "compleat" meal - chicken, gravy, and mashed potatoes - only 220 calories, 3g fat, and 21g Protein.

Snacks - as usual - sf popsicles - they keep me sane

Go Bandsters!

Interesting...I like seeing what others are eating.

Here's what I had yesterday:

Breakfast: Slim Fast Low Carb Choc. shake with a Bananna

Lunch: Half slice oat bread-toasted with 2oz Muenster cheese

Dinner: 4 oz chicken and 1/2 c. broccolini

Dessert: Two tablespoons of no sugar ice cream.

This morning: Slim Fast Low Carb Choc. shake with a Bananna and 1 teaspoon of crunchy Peanut Butter...in the Magic Bullet.

Funny when I was in liquid only stage...I was getting so tired of the Slim Fast shakes. Now...I am craving them! Sometimes I have shakes for two of my meals.

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
