I miss rice! oh how I miss it... 💔 it feels like something is missing in my meals. It truly breaks my heart.

All the rice I miss: arroz chaufa, arroz verde peruano, arroz a la jardinera, arroz con gandules, arroz con vegetales, arroz con mariscos, arroz con habichuelas y salchichas, arroz anaranjado... the list can go on.

I also miss cuban sandwiches.

I'm in NJ, where the food is so good! I miss bread (NJ pizza, Bagels and subs) and Chinese. I may miss Pasta sometimes, but that passes. I will miss the Christmas Cookies this year. But honestly, while it can be hard, nothing beats the way I feel now and, while I'm not where I want to be with my weight just yet, I like the way I look sooooo much better than I did. I know I'll get there. I did this for my health and, very quickly, I got off my blood pressure meds and I'm not on any meds. That's amazing and freeing. Love my tool!

I miss being able in indulge in my wine and whiskey this season. I've been giving bottles away from my bar, surgery is next month. I also stopped buying bread, I love 12 grain bread for any type of toast with butter...oh my goodness, how I miss it already. Pasta dishes from home as well...and I'm going to miss cashews...lol

I will be hitting the road in a few days and my road trip Snacks have definitely changed. Subs and a glazed donut from Krispy Kreme are occasionally missed especially during my 8 hour drives.

I am almost 2 years out. I miss enjoying my food. I keep trying things hoping to experience the old pleasure, but it's just not there. This is definitely a mixed blessing. It's like I want to really enjoy a small sandwich, or fruit, or whatever, but when I get it, I'm like "meh!" But, then I see the next thing and I'm tempted again, just to be disappointed again. Sadly, the only thing that seems to get close to the old culinary pleasure points is sweets, and even they are disappointing. 😟

      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! 😞

      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.
