Okay here is my food for the day.

Cream of Wheat and Applesauce

Turkey salad

Halibut w/ potatoe, broccoli

Tapioca pudding

40 oz crystal light

72 oz Water

All meals were very small portions and I took anywhere from 30mintues to 1 hour to eat. :)

I am very lucky that I own a restaurant and I have educated all my cooks about band food how to cook it and Portion Control. So I dont cook much but I still have to be so careful about testing things, sampling just a few down falls of being a restaurant owner.

what is kalamata tapenate?

Tapenade is a spread made of olives, pretty much mushed up olives and oil, it used mostly for crackers or toasted breads. For the sake of adding calories i add to some meats to vary the taste of things..and its all good fats

Hey Goosefrabra, you sound like me, trying to get some flavor. I want to put pesto on anything to give it some taste. Unfortunately, I have practically no restriction and can eat more than 1/2 a cup at a meal. Today I had greek yougurt for the first time and loved it! And tons of Protein to boot and it tastes way better than the nasty kashi high Protein and Fiber oatmeal I had been eating for Breakfast.

So here's my list:

Breakfast: 1/2 c. greek yogurt w/ 1/2 c. frozen berries and tbsp honey

Lunch: 2 slices homemade pizza (made the dough, made the sauce, small amount of cheese the only topping)

Snack: biscotti

Dinner: 1/2 baked chicken breast w/ roasted carrots, parsnips and potatos

Snack: 2 more Biscotti:thumbdown: (They sound good, very low in fat, until I dipped them into chocolate)

Tomorrow is back to work, where its much easier to avoid temptation!:)

Okay, I forgot the midafternoon guacamole break. Tasty too. About 10 small chips dunked in.

Edited by redmom
Damn! I forgot the guacamole!

Hey China, no problems with the biscotti. Really, the only problem I've had so far was with a grilled chicken salad. I think I gulped it down without chewing the chicken enough.

Today was much better;

Breakfast 1/2 c. greek yogurt, 1/3 c. frozen berries, 1tbsp. honey

lunch green salad with two slices of deli roast beef, gorgonzola cheese and 2tbsp. of italian dressing

dinner 1/2 chicken breast (breaded and sauted in olive oil :tongue2:) with a mixed green salad tossed with lemon vinagrette on top.

snack 3x biscotti.< /p>

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
