Little NSV today and a yummy lunch find - NSV: As I was driving to work today I noticed that my ass actually fit fairly well in the bucket seat.  Yummy lunch find: Trader Joe's Organic Baked Tofu. 1 piece has 16 grams o...

Yummy cucumber recipes - From the NY Times. I bought some Persian cucumbers and they are lovely. The yogurt soup looks intriguing.  

It's the little things... - Like when hubby says "What's happened to your ass? It's disappearing!"

1 month follow-up - Got the official weigh-in today. 232!!! My doc thinks I'm doing really, really well and said I can eat "normal" food now - whatever my stomach will tolerate. Keeping in mind protei...

And today's super nice NSV... - I had a job interview this morning. I have worked for casual start ups for years so I really only have one pair of dress slacks. I have skirts but I have a large tattoo on one of m...

Feeling pretty darned good - I'll be a month out this week. Overall I'd say I'm doing pretty well. I've been tracking my food fairly religiously.  I am feeling some hunger. Some of it may be that I need to ...

Fantastic information. Pre-op I had a pretty healthy diet - no fast...

A small but super nice NSV - I have a pair of black jeans that are the "Oh crap all my other jeans are in the laundry" pair. They are tight - like cut off your middle when you're sitting down tight. Except ...

Again with the dialing back... - My goal for today - WATER! I'll have a protein shake for breakfast and an egg for lunch and then another shake for dinner with a smudge of banana. And lots and lots of water....

Too full! - Ugh. I had half a plum and about 3 tablespoons of my Thai soup (I pureed some califlower in my mouth but mostly had the broth). I'm stuffed. I haven't even gotten 16 ounces of wate...

One clear drawback to the surgery... - Food goes bad before you can eat it all! I have no idea how long cottage cheese is good for after you open it. Or hummus. I can only eat about a tablespoon of each per "meal" co...

3 weeks out and feeling pretty good - Yesterday was my 3 week "anniversary". I'm on pureed/very soft foods which has been hard as I'm not digesting chicken well and I don't like tuna. Shakes it is!  I have discovere...

Fresh fruit I LOVE you! - Black plum nom nom nom!

Good day! - I got some protein in (yay!) and a multivitamin (yay!). I did some shopping - just for undies. It's Lane Bryant's semi-annual Cacique bra and panty sale so I stocked up on undies -...

Today's food - I am dialing it back a bit today. I had a scrambled egg with a pinch of cheese for breakfast, and had a big spoonful of fat-free cottage cheese with a dollop of tomato/basil hummus...

Totally overdid it yesterday - No so much in quantity overall but quantity all at once. I had my protein drink in the a.m. and then nothing until about 8pm at night when I pureed up some Trader Joe's Grilled Chi...

Not feeling super - I didn't want to have my protein cafe mocha so I went with the Diet V8 Splash. I also didn't want more pureed chicken, any cottage cheese, Greek yogurt or Jello for lunch so I brou...

More water, vitamins - I'm feeling tired. I'm having little mini cramps in my calves. I definitely need to up my water and try and get down the women's high potenency vitamins I bought. It's definitel...

No poop... - TMI for most environments, but on this website it's okay. First week was nothing but diarrhea - makes sense right? Liquid in, liquid out. After I had my first Greek yogurt th...

Was a little hungry today -  I think now that the swelling in my stomach is going down there's room for a little hunger. I didn't eat that much today, admittedly. Cafe mocha protein shake in the a.m. and then...

I'll tell you - after almost two weeks of "clear" I'm happy to be...

The first puree - I pureed 3oz of Trader Joe's grilled chicken strips, a splash of chicken broth and 1 teaspoon of cheese. And ate too fast. Wow. That is uncomfortable.  But still..... so much...

Definitely tired and a little off - It's been a busy week back at work. I'm got a somewhat busy weekend ahead, but busy with good stuff. My digestive system is apparently very confused by the Greek yogurt I've bee...

Tired today - I'm nearing the end of a bit of a crazy week and my first week back after surgery. It's going to be over 100F this weekend so no outsie time for me. I may plan a bit of slacking, b...
