Little lettuce sandwich for lunch today with leftover meatloaf from take-out last evening. Ate it all. Happy Mother's Day weekend to all you fabulous Mom's out there! My fur son after the groomers yesterday waiting patiently for some cheddar cheese and peanut bites. ;]

Do any of you know how to make the zuchinni less watery? I tried drying it on paper towels and I tried putting salt on it.

If I try to make zuchinni bread it just won't cook. There is just this slobbery mess of a batter after cooking it. It is good batter though, so not complaining. I found myself head first in several bowls of batter during this experiment.

I also tried making zuchinni spagetti by roasting it in the oven and ripping it with a fork, didn't turn out so well :P

We just gave up on the zucchini spiral thing for Pasta and sauce. Even tried to flash fry on high heat to omit watery results. Failure. I love a good Bolognese sauce - So, we now have it over baked spaghetti squash which has work pretty well. And, trying to learn to enjoy sauce without being over former homemade pastas. Being half Italian - I really do miss the family recipes handed down for generations but healthier for it. 😕

Simple salad for today's lunch. Would have loved some of those dates on it! We are painting and re-decorating my home office + studio this weekend while marinated pork carnitas are slow roasting in oven for our Cuban supper tonight, as a DIY reward! LOL. Adore authentic Cuban food having spent many years living in Miami/Coral Gables. Did set designs for Miami Vice show, too. Anyone remember the original show with Don Johnson? When Billy Crocket went undercover to penetrate the drug cartel... we did his character's ultra-sleek luxury modern home on Biscayne Bay. Long days on set design we'd order Cuban take-out delivery. Yum! Feeling rather sentimental these days... Thanks for letting me ramble on. ;]

Of course I remember Miami Vice! I never watched it but it was so popular everyone knew about it. I think we are about the same age.

What a cool job @Sophie7713

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! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
