Zucchini sounds great! I was maybe going to sauté some spiralized zucchini. Thanks [emoji4]



Sauteed zucchini was the first veggie I tried. I sauteed it with a little olive oil and some light fresh herbs. It was delicious

I don't remember when I actually started more veggies, but it was early on. I was cleared for all foods about 3-4 weeks. Up until that time, my nut approved of my "green bombs" in Protein Shakes, which were ice cubes sized blended green veggies and fruits, that were blended in to my drinks. So technically, I had veggies from the get go. Didn't bother me at all. Now I do recall having salad early on, didn't bother me either.

That is good to know. I love your green bomb idea!

I've learned the more you eat Beans the better your tolerance. I eat them all the time and don't have issues with gas. Kind of the same but off topic, peanut tolerance...there was a study done that if you start your kids early on with peanuts during infancy (obviously a safe way to introduce it), those kids have built a tolerance of them. It's all very interesting actually.

I eat all kinds of beans and lentils and don't have problems. That is interesting about Peanut Butter.

I had sautéed zucchini noodles with spaghetti sauce. It was good.

Mashed sweet potatoes! I missed them so much. I couldn't add butter or brown sugar, but I did add cinnamon. They were delicious!....All 4 bites of them!

I made roasted sweet potatoes with black Beans and chimichuri sauce- I didn't eat much but loved them. Mashed sweet potatoes sound great too!

      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!!
