Well I don't see lettuce on there. That is what I got in my packet too and that is what confused me. That doesn't sound like a salad to me. I wonder if you can eat the cauliflower or spinach cooked? Does anyone know? I don't eat most of those things except the egg the spinach and the cauliflower.

@@Ronab hehehe I think lettuce would be OK. Spinich has more nutritional value and would probably be better for ya. However, I will probably do a spring greens mix, or half lettuce and half spinich. I hate spinich with ranch, but love it with oil/vinegar type dressings.< /p>

I think as long as you are not adding anything else to the cauliflower or spinich while coooking them, it should be good.

You might try: lettuce, kidney Beans, Tomato, 1 egg and 1/2 serving of chicken mixed together with a low carb ranch. I did Medifast for a long time and it was one of my fave salads.

You might also maybe email ALM and see if you can make an omlet instead of a salad out of eggs, veggies and spinich?

Just some (diet) food for thought.... :)

I love beef, so it was either steak or prime rib, I had chicken occasionally, but not often as I'm not a big fan of it.

Shizwiz, you got that right, I'm scared of the preop. Mainly because I've failed so many diets in the past. I'm scheduled for the 22nd, If I get my travel docs in order by then.

emmuje875, you can check the status of your passport/pass card online and it will tell you the date it will arrive. Mine took about three weeks.

Im done, slept alot lately, and internet goes in and out here in Mexicio. Dr. Ortiz staff and a lighter me treated me excellent. I don't think I couldve gotten better attention elsewhere. The numbers are 2 nurses to 8 patients. Very happy to be feeling a little better. The first night was a little rough due to pain and gas. But last night I slept like a baby.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! My daughters are in the preop diet stage so our dinner is going to be very limited, but no worries! We are so excited for the upcoming trip to OCC. We leave the 7th with surgeries scheduled for the 8th. Please send your prayers this way! I will be so glad to have the surgeries done and the girls back home and on the losers bench. Good luck to all of you who have upcoming surgeries in December. What a great Christmas gift you are giving yourselves!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
