Ahhhh I love TV while on the treadmill!  It definitely keeps my mind off of the task at hand :)  I saw your recipe the other day for the peanut butter cookie.  It sounds like it's decent and you have some ideas to improve it.  I need to get more creative!  I do have cream cheese in my fridge to make oopsie bread - just need to find the time!

Ceithlenn - your day was not horrible at all!  Well, re your calories and protein. Your commute to work certainly sounds horrible :(  I have to find coconut yogurt - that actually sounds pretty good :)  Don't beat yourself up over your numbers - they are similar to mine yesterday and I am only 3 months out!!!!  If anyone should be kicking themselves, it's me!

So my first eating post- I can't believe I'm post op and joining in with everyone!!  Today I followed my Drs orders with 4 oz variations over the entire day every hour a new 4 oz option. Crystal light, protein shakes, water' Popsicles, ect. It's been pretty easy and making sure to take it very very slow.

2 days post op

yay!

WooHoo!!! Good for you!

S: greek yogurt

V & W: Great

E: not so great lol

One thing I have learned from this post is that nothing is weird!  Pickle is awesome for the crunch.  I see people who have chicken fajitas for breakfast :)  We are all in this weird world together and your menu often looks really good to me :)

Yay, welcome Biggie Smalls!!!  The first few weeks can be a little tough (I felt very emotionally, sad occasionally, periodically lonely...how I long for those days now that I am traveling and over scheduled lol!) but it gets better and we are all here to support you!  I had two weeks of liquids post-op.  But transitioned easily to soft solids.  Your life is about to get better and better as you lose weight and feel better :)  Congratulations!!!
