I can finally post a before and after. First soft foods meal. Cajun tilapia and cauliflower mash. Don’t mind my fancy paper plate. :) My pics are flip flopped for some reason...sigh

Had a Salsarita's Mexican Bowl for lunch today... and for dinner too. Lol. First pic is before, second is what was left after eating lunch, third is what was left after eating it for dinner. Prior to surgery I would have added rice in the bowl too and would have eaten the whole thing at one meal.

Refried Beans, black beans, steak, shrimp, shredded cheese, corn salsa, lettuce, sour cream and queso20190210_125026.jpeg 20190210_124930.jpeg 20190210_125936.jpeg

Tonight I made a skinnytaste recipe - turkey and sweet potato chili. I was always anti ground turkey but this was really good. Maybe I will try to use it more often.

Yes. She has some really great tasting easy ideas. I’m just making one or two meals a week since it will take me days to eat them but I plan to keep trying new things. This was really good.

That looks really good! Was the turkey juicy (not dry)?

Not at all...I didn't really measure anything but I used the recipe as a guide. I definitely put a lot more chili powder and cumin in because I dont like bland food and I don't mind heat..but this wasn't spicy IMO.

here is the recipe

Getting my car repaired today and headed to the nearest coffee shop to wait 4 hours. Had some great food options. I chose this:

whole grain toast, white bean puree, avocado, fried egg, house made hot sauce

This pic was after I started but you can tell what size it was. I finished half of the toast part but ate all of the egg and avocado.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
