Thanks Amanda! Glad to make a buddy in the same shoes. I do a home meal delivery subscription service for our family weeknight dinners to make life less chaotic and just picked the menu for the 14th. For me it was butternut squash & pumpkin soup - annnd that was the moment it got really real! So many emotions.

You have a great day too!!

That actually sounds delicious, I might have to look that one up! I have a pumpkin & a butternut squash [emoji177]. I will still be cooking for my hubby & kids during pre-op and after surgery, which doesn’t sound good considering I won’t be able to eat any of it. I told hubby that I am taking Thanksgiving off since I can’t lift the turkey. I plan to prep most of the sides if possible before I leave for the hospital, that way we can just heat/eat...or in my case heat and drink lol.


Have a great day!

I'm right there with you still having to feed a family - I think I've tried most of the services but I'm currently using Gobble. It makes meal prep easier in general but I'm hoping it helps the pre/post op transition - so the fam will have the meals and I'll have the soups (with added protein powder). Amanda, I love the thanksgiving idea and that you're a planner too! I may just have to copy you. Looks like we're going to be great support to one another Talk soon!

Hello my Peeps

I was just notified by my Dr. that since my BMI is 39 I do not need to do a 2-week liquid diet. I can do one week only and have my surgery on the 1st of November instead. I agreed, of course. Now am freaking out!!!!!!
