In need of some crunch?



Recommended Posts

Found a great recipe on Pinterest for Parmesan wonton crackers and they are yummy! No fat, a few carbs and even a little Protein. Almost 3 months out and I was missing a little crunch in my life. These are perfect!

I do cucumber slices with a splash of hot sauce & lime. Crunchy & spicy; my favorite things. A ½ cup is 4 or 5 calories and I get some veg in to stay regular.

I've had cucumbers a few times. I just missed something closer to a "chip". Fortunately my family likes the taste of them too, I get 3 or 4 and the rest are eaten by the kids and hubby. Keeps me out of trouble :)

I understand. I was never a big chip eater so I don't really miss them.

I found some really great high Protein Snacks through Amazon. It's great to be able to read all of the reviews too, but I've still ended up buying one that I really didn't like.. Just got these pickle or dill krinkles that are high in protein and super satisfying without actually having to eat a pickle, haha

I like Quest chips. I get them online. If you order directly from Quest you can buy individual bags to sample.

My new favorite post-swim snack is Mr. cheese O's. I get mine from Amazon but have heard they are available at some stores. There are several flavors and you can get a sampler from Amazon.

      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!!
