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.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
