Almost two weeks and ready for soft food advice

It has been almost two weeks since the surgery, I am so in this and enjoying the process. I am working out and feeling great and have lost a total of 15.8 pounds. I have a lose it icon on my phone and log all my workouts and liquid intakes, and to watch the graph of the weight going down is very satisfying. My incision are healed and I spent the day river snorkling and trying to chase trout with a net, hilarious and active and no trout for my partner's dinner. One of my best friends is the swimmer Diana Nyad and had a great work out with her today. Check out BravaBody work out cd's very inspiring. I don't know how to get in all my protein with the switch to soft foods, any advise of how you get 60 grams of protein? Do you stop the yummy protein drinks completely?

First Social Outing

Last night it was 4 days since I had the surgery and my partner and I were invited to a dinner party/end of the summer party. Many friends who we know from our sons elementary school. It went very well, I shared with the hosts why I wasn't eating and it wasn't embarrassing or awkward at all. The person passing trays around kept forcing me to take something and I said no thank you at each stop and finally she stopped asking. I got tired at the two hour mark and we were ready to go home. I sipped at water and had wonderful conversations and my partner was able to have fun socializing. My life has an enourmous amount of social events, so to have the first one under my belt in a very easy environment is a relief. Otherwise I am doing fine, slight headache, but no hunger at all. Isopure is better with a bit of crystal light sprinkled in, such a helpful tip.
