Actually that sounds awesome to me. It's like a Shepard's pie puree. I will be eating this soon. Except I'll have to add buffalo sauce to keep with my current trend.

I have a good gal-pal from Clarence Center, a Buffalo suburb. I call her my Buffalo Oriole, looks like a Baltimore one but has an extra set of Water wings. Someday she's taking me there since I've shown her my Ohio haunts. I think Clarence Center is where they had that bad plane crash a few years ago.✈

Oooh that cottage cheese and peaches almost sounds like faux icecream. Did it have a cottage cheese taste though?

I would suspect more like frozen yoghurt but haven't tried it myself. I am also a blueberry gal, somebody gave me a 5 pound bag frozen in a big lump, in one corner of my freezer. Thought I might make myself something Bari-friendly for,my upcoming Birthday. Since it is the Day after Christmas I learned young to "make my own kind of music" nobody gives you a party, nobody gives you gifts, and money or gift cards leave me cold= it means I didn't care for you enough to buy you a present, that would mean I actually cared about you, here let me buy you off with money or a card I bought you at a filling station/ cheap garage/ supermarket as an afterthought. One of my Aunt's husband was famous in the family for such tricks, never called him Uncle, that would mean I felt affection for someone who treated my Aunt shabbily every chance he got! Why didn't she divorce him/ kick him to the edge of a busy road? She believed only bad girls. got divorced, a man is the burden you bear to stay married! A MRS is the only degree a girl could aspire to!
Oh I am sorry to get on a soapbox, but my aunt had to work 2 years past normal retirement. Among his other marvelous larceny talents, forgery, forged her signature on loan papers , of course kept 5he money sizable for his own self, told the bank he was dropping off the paperwork because she was busy working, she knew nothing about it u,til the bank loan fell due, he had conveniently died of cirrhosis and hepatic cancer, the nasty glob of man-flesh , oh and he was also a pedophile, no girl of 6 was safe from him, somebody older among the females warned you. I thank God, Allah whoever you hold as Supreme being, that the baby girl I was carrying at his demise was safe from him.
Tell you what I did to him! I was practicing my piano, yes my parents paid for lessons, did it long enough to participate in recitals. Nasty pervert snuck up behind me abd grope me, Kept playing the melody line with my right hand, picked up a heavy brass bottle-opener with my left and bashed him across his knuckles, broke 3 fingers, told my aunt he fell fishing, he had always ridiculed me for being fat and clumsy, I wasn't clumsy, I was ambidextrous and I was free of unwanted attention at 13 years old. NEVER TRIED anything again!, So did I mourn him? What for? And I grew up in the Era where adults were believed over children, and had I told police or other responsible adults, he would I'm sure killed my pets. So don't tell me of the Good Old Days, things were different then and not ALWAYS GOOD!

No. I tasted the peaches more. It really was ice cream to me. Thing is since ur taste buds change. At this point it is such a treat. I still eat that when i have the craving. If the peach is not sweet u can try adding just a lil splenda. [emoji4]

Clam Chowder! Then I did tuna salad. Then a few days in I made chicken gravy using baked chicken thighs and served it over potatoes.... it was great. By day 3 I got sick from it, so that was the end of that.

      So I guess after gastric bypass surgery, I cant eat flock chips because they are fried???  They sell them on here so I thought I could have them. So high in protein and no carbs.  They don't bother me at all.  Help.

        It's possible for a very high fat meal to cause dumping in some (30% or so) gastric bypass patients, although it's more likely to be triggered by high sugar, or by the high fat/high sugar combo (think ice cream, donuts). Dietitians will tell you to never do anything that isn't 100% healthy ever again. Realistically, you should aim for a good balance of protein, carbs, and fat each day. Should you eat fried foods every day? No. Is it possible they will make you sick? Maybe. Is it okay to eat some to see what happens and have them for a treat every now and again? Yes.

      I'm not at all hungry on this liquid pre-op diet, but I miss the sensation of chewing. It's been about two weeks––surgery is in two days––and I can't imagine how I'll feel a couple of weeks post-op. Tonight, I randomly stumbled upon a mukbang channel on YouTube, and it was strangely soothing... is it just me, or is this a thing?

        I actually watched cooking shows during my pre-op, like Great British Baking Show. It was a little bizarre, but didn't make me hungry. I think it was also soothing in a way.

      How do you figure out what your ideal weight should be? I've had a figure in my head for years, but after 3 mths of recovery I'm already almost there. So maybe my goal should be lower?

        Well, there is actually a formula for "Ideal Body Weight" and you can use a calculator to figure it out for you. This one also does an adjusted weight for a person who starts out overweight or obese. https://www.mdcalc.com/calc/68/ideal-body-weight-adjusted-body-weight

        I would use that as a starting point, and then just see how you feel as you lose. How you look and feel is more important than a number.

      2. Clueless_girl

        I did find different calculators but I couldn't find any that accounted for body frame. But you're right, it is just a number. It was just disheartening to see that although I lost 60% of my excess weight, it's still not in the "normal/healthy" range..

      3. NickelChip

        I think it's important to remember that the weight charts and BMI ranges were developed a very long time ago and only intended to be applied to people who have never been overweight or obese. Those numbers aren't for us. When you are larger, especially for a long time, your body develops extra bone to support the weight. Your organs get a little bigger to handle the extra mass. Your entire infrastructure increases so you can support and function with the extra weight. That doesn't all go away just because you burn off the excess fat. If you still had a pair of jeans from your skinniest point in life and then lost weight to get to the exact number on the scale you were when those jeans fit you, chances are they would be a little baggy now because you would actually be thinner than you were, even though the scale and the BMI chart disagree. When in doubt, listen to the jeans, not the scale!

      Tomorrow marks two weeks since surgery day and while I'm feeling remarkably well and going about just about every normal activity, I did wind up with a surface abscess on on of my incision sights and was put on an antibiotic that made me so impacted that it took me more than two hours to eliminate yesterday and scared the hell out of me. Now there's Miralax in all my beverages that aren't Smooth Move tea. I cannot experience that again. I shouldn't have to take Ativan to go to the lady's. I really looking forward to my body getting with the program again. 
      I'm in day three of the "puree" stage of eating and despite the strange textures, all of the savory flavors seem decadent. 
      I timed this surgery so that I'd be recovering during my spring break. That was a good plan. Today is a state holiday and the final day of break. I feel really strong to return to school tomorrow.

      Now that I'm in maintenance mode, I'm getting a into a routine for my meals. Every day, I start out with 8-16 ounces of water, and then a proffee, which I have come to look forward to even the night before. My proffees are simply a black coffee with a protein powder added. There are three products that I cycle through: Premier Vanilla, Orgain Vanilla, and Dymatize Vanilla.
      For second breakfast on workdays, I will have a low-fat yogurt with two tablespoons of PBFit and two teaspoons of no sugar added dried cherries. I will have ingested 35-45 grams of protein at this point between the two breakfasts, with 250-285 calories, and about 20 carbs.
      For second breakfast on non-workdays, I will prepare two servings of plain, instant oatmeal with a tablespoon of an olive oil-based spread. This means I will have had 34 grams of protein, 365 calories, and 38 carbs. Non-workdays are when I am being very active with training sessions, so I allow myself more carbohydrate fuel.
      Snacks on any day are always mixed nuts, even when I am travelling. I will have 0.2 cups of a blend that I make myself. It consists of dry roasted peanuts, cashews, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, pistachios, and Brazil nuts. This is 5 grams of protein, 163 calories, and 7 carbs.
      Breakfast and snacks have been the easiest to nail down. Lunch and dinner have more variables, and I prepare enough for leftovers. I concentrate on protein first, and then add vegetables. Typically tempeh, tofu, or Field Roast products with roasted or sautéed vegetables. Today, I will be eating leftovers from last night. Two ounces of tempeh with four ounces of roasted vegetables that consist of red and yellow sweet peppers, sweet potatoes, small purple potatoes, zucchini, and carrots. I will add a tablespoon of olive oil-based spread, break up 3 walnuts to sprinkle of top, and garnish with two tablespoons of grated Parmesan cheese. This particular meal will be 19 grams of protein, 377 calories, and 28 grams of carbs. Bear in mind that I do eat more carbs when I am not working, and I focus on ingesting healthy carbs instead of breads/crackers/chips/crisps.
      It's a helluva journey and I'm thankful to be on it!
