We try to do one special meal once per payday. My sweetie hit a home run! That is a bacon wrapped filet mignon and butterflied shrimp stuffed with cream cheese, lime juice, rosemary and then wrapped in bacon. Unfortunately 3 bites of steak was all that I could handle but those shrimp, oh those shrimp! Ahhh, happy fat man indeed! ????

Awesome and looks great after cottage cheese tonight! I love buying 1 filet mignon occasionally, and sharing with my husband. Shrimp is so plentiful in Florida, it is a favorite. Guess I have lived here so long I take it for granted. You are a lucky man, but wait, she is pretty lucky too!

I am definitely a lucky man! I couldn't have a more wonderful wife! Not quite sure how I hooked her but I'm so glad that she didn't spit the hook.

That looks so good. Definitely beats this pureed stuff I am eating for the next 4 weeks. :)

You call that Kosher?

Let's see if I recall enough about kosher eating. meats and dairy are supposed to be separated from other and pigs have cloved feet but they don't chew cud. Nope not kosher!

Bariatric kosher though, as I recall it is Protein first so... Beef, yep. Shrimp, yep. Bacon, yep. Cream cheese, yep. Rosemary, nope. Lime juice, nope. The yeppers have it for the bariatric kosher win!

@,

The shrimp would have to go, too. (You'd have to pry them from my cold, dead hand.) Only creatures of the Water that have scales and fins are permitted. You are bariatrically kosher, though, as you say. Watch the amount of cream cheese for its high fat content. Nothing at all wrong with seasonings -- rosemary and lime juice to your heart's content.

Oooh, your filet was perfectly cooked -- rare. Alas, not kosherly kosher. There's something about meats having to be well done. I'm not positive, but, if correct, it's probably similar to the prohibition against dairy and meat at the same table. The reason is lovely, but don't mess with a good cut of meat.< /p>

L'chaim! You're doing so well.

I forgot about the scales. One of my employees is Jewish and he jokes that he is "the worst Jewish ever" because he loves pork. For some reason everything has clicked this week and I've dropped 7 pounds in the last 6 days.

I like and eat pork despite the fact that it has no scales. Speaking of which, 7 in 6 days is hot stuff.

      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.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      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
