I'm eating 1000-1200 calories a day. Getting 60-80g of Protein. I try to get at least half from plant based sources. I do eat whole grains, legums and low glycemic carbs. Desperately tired of cooked veggies and want my fresh crunchy veggies back!

I walk about 7 miles a day. Walked 9 yesterday:) I walk while I watch TV, I walk while I'm on the phone, I park farther away from stores, I walk while I play app games on my phone, etc. Walk, walk, walk. My fitbit is part of my body. LOL

Am going to add Water aerobics in the heated therapy pool twice a week when I get cleared for it at my 5 week Dr. appointment.

Am enjoying life, loving how much better I feel, loving being off BP meds.

Here's a cool recipe:

Protein pancakes

1/2 cup oatmeal

1/4 cup cottage cheese

1 egg, plus 2 egg whites

Dash of cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

Dash of salt

Dash of fake no-cal popcorn butter flavoring granuals

Blend well....I use my smoothie maker

You can use the batter to make about 6 little silver dollar pancakes, or use it to make a giant waffle.

150 calories for oats 5g Protein

35 calories for egg whites 8g Protein.

75 calories for whole egg 6g Protein

40 calores cottage cheese 6g protein

Total....300 calories 25g Protein

This is likely to be two to three servings.

You can use low calorie Syrup, or I like strawberries mashed with splenda

You can make these up ahead and put them in the freezer...zap them as needed.

Explain the nature of an ABS challenge to the uninitiated.

I have no idea what the challenge involves.

Thanks, in anticipation of your illuminating answer.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
