I am down 47 pounds and have been stuck this week.  My husband is down 75 pounds.  I can't believe it!! We are struggling through getting all of our protein in.  We have been able to go out to eat with our friends and just watch what we eat.  We went to eat at Ruby Tuesdays on Friday night.  We ordered a grilled chicken breast which came with two sides.  We got two orders of the creamy mashed cauliflower since it had less carbs and was the most like pureed food.  We couldn't even eat half of our half of chicken breast or half of the side order.  The waiter looked at us funny when we asked for a to go box.  He looked at us and said "Do you want dessert?".  My husband explained that we had had surgery and he then understood.  Before the surgery we could have each eaten the whole meal and probably at least split a dessert.  It is so different now but we both feel so much better.  I have been fixing some chinese food which follows all of the low carb-low fat- and high protein. My husband still isn't that big on fish or any type of seafood.  I got some different types of fish to try this week so maybe we can at least find one that he likes.  We are taking dance lessons on Friday nights which is giving us some exercise.  We may be picking up another type of dance on Wednesdays but we'll see.  We also are going to try to start going to the gym so we can do water aerobics or just swim.  We have heard that this makes the weight fall off faster.
