K, I know I eat alot of salad. I was all excited to eat this salad as I was making it that I sort of made it ginormous, and ate it out of the mixing bowl because it wouldn't fit in a regular salad bowl. The Kid asked me why I go nutso for salad of all things, and I told her because it's delicious and just feels CLEAN. Anyone know what I mean?

Anyhoo, as anticipated I didn't finish it....will eat the rest later.

YES! Am I yelling? Cuz it feels like I'm yelling!!!! LOL. I know EXACTLY how you feel!!! (I'm having salad tonight--super duper crunchy, crisp, and no heavy dressings--just my guilt free tangy zero cal dressing.)

I feel SO excellent after having one of these salads. I can eat a lot more than you of the salad...I think cuz it scrunches down maybe and is so wet from moist veggies? But we go to this super cheap neighborhood place that cooks everything from scratch. I could literally have anything I want--pasta, pizza, bread...and instead I get 1 of 3 things and 2 of them are salads or involve salad and the other is just the "chicken or shrimp" salad add-on and a side of their al dente veggies with garlic and super light on the oil. :) So think "steamed al dente."

I just am at the point where I prefer the clean food. Cuz every time I don't do that? I feel miserable after and usually have either nausea or RH, or swollen tummy and the dry heaves. Etc. :) Loves me some salad. But was always a salad girl.

Hello. Do you know me?

I have a bigger-than-average pouch/tool and can seriously pack a lot of calorie bang for the buck into every meal! So when I come across a portion size of a meal that I can't finish and I have to recalibrate quantities, I want to save it to my "Seriously Filling Good Meal" file! :) Cuz on the hungry hungry hippo days...well you know.

So here's my latest SFGM experience! I call this my Peanut Butter and Blueberry Chia Slop. :D I'm nicely full--even maybe 1 bite too many! And so will see if I'm ready to eat some more in a couple of hours. Already, I'm thinking that my afternoon "green soup" lunch might not happen cuz of being satisfied. Weird. Yesterday I couldn't get full and today, bam! Baybee! This has filled me and chilled me!

Sorry for the crappy photos and dirty bowl!

3oz Greek yogurt with a squirt of sugar free vanilla Torani Syrup. It was damn delicious!

Ha a tabbouleh craving. Made enough to feed an army. Put my hand in photo so you could get an idea how big the bowl is 😉. Sadly my hubby actually picked all the parsley out of his serving. He thought he liked tabbouleh 🙄 but, I guess not!

This is my new favorite dinner. Smoked lean pork tenderloin marinated overnight in Frontera Grill Carnita sauce. 1 thin mission corn tortilla, pico de Gallo, grilled pineapple and 3.5 oz of lean pork. Total 268 calories.

My husband adds Don Poncho cilantro lime crema (Costco) it is only 40 calories for 2 Tablespoons. I hate creamy stuff.

      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!!
