I eat Granny Smith apples. My surgeon say's nothing with peels so everything is peeled and sliced thin. How about microwaving them or sauteeing them to soften? It may make it easier to digest. Jen

Topic: Unrecognisable
Tonight I had a 2nd person not recognise me. I don't see how it's possible. To me I still look like me, just thinner?? The first person was in Wal-Mart, I was with my daughter and a grandmother of a child who used to come to my daycare walked by.... We were face to face as she passed and I, glad to see her said..."HI THERE!" She simply said very flatly "Hi" She didn't even make eye contact. I then said "How are you?" and she still flat said "Fine" and kept walking. I stood there for a second and then said to My daughter..."What the hell was that?" This is a woman who would normally stop and chat and give me all the updates on her grandson. Taryn said..."I don't think she knew it was you" So that was never confirmed but I suspect that may be what was going on. Tonight DH and I were in the drug store at a till, across from us at another till was a former aide of my daughters.... I made eye contact and smiled at her....She smiled politely back and I was expecting something like "OMG you look so good" It seems to be the first thing out of everyone's mouths these days. But she didn't seem friendly at all. I paid for my purchases and started walking towards her...it was then she caught sight of DH and it occurred to her who I was. Then she started saying OMG..... She said she was looking at me because I seemed familiar, but she didn't know who I was. She said if she hadn't seen DH she would never have known it was me. Becky

I eat the granny smith apples... I peel and slice them and have probably been eating them since I could have solid foods. There really isn't much that I can't have. It use to be tortillas and bread, but now I can eat those as well. I just remember moderation for everything now.

Topic: RE: APPLES!!!
I hear in our group meetings that some people have issues with the apple peels. So most people try apples but they just don't eat the skin. I don't have any issues with apples, blueberries, rasberries, strawberries, grapes, or mangos. I did have an issue when I tried to eat raw carrots. They didn't sit very well at all with me. I guess each of us are different, so you just have to try things out and see what works... then wait for a few months and try again!! Sherri
