doesnt need for me to get warm. ice cream is a year round favorite

I am not saying that I dont like her recipes. Just to go thru every post was painful. just went to whole foods and used her pantry list to get a few things :-)

I Love smoothie kings' Gladiator. you can buy it in bulk at their stores. sooo tasty !!!

just went out last night and got an ice cream maker. getting ready to try it

husband bought me an icecream maker last night. gonna try one of the recipies from eggface. ill let you know how it is.

I havent gotten into the actual eating phase yet. but I bought at Pier 1, small tasting dishes & spoons. I also bought a small timer (target kitchen gadget section) and I have it timed to 30 seconds so I can learn when I have chewed enough. Hopefully the practice I did before surgery is going to help me.

youll do fine. remember water, walking & deep breathing exercises. you'll do great

ill be thinking of ya. remember. walk & water !!!

Just got sleeved and pasta is my downfall also. BTW love your blog.

popsicles help. somthing to chew

got sleeved on Monday. I finally passed gas yesterday. when should I be concerned that I havent had a bowel movement yet?

that is an OTC pill. can I take that?

if I drink a shake I can only finish 1/2 of it. makes me so full. The isopure makes me want to vomit. any suggestions so I can get some protein in and my fluids.

our hospital requires all new emloyees to pass a nicotiene test before they are hired. How dare they tell us what to do on our own time. Maybe we should breathalyze every employee that walks in the door reporting for work. Many a nurse would be turned away from drinking the night before.

loves dr nick. he was with baylor weightloss and then went to forest park medical center and he was an "out of network" dr for me. ended up going with kuhn

sleeved on monday also. lots of trouble with nausea & vomiting. just got out of hospital this morning. able to tolerate popsicles... what ever it takes to get fluid in

heath here

so I am finally home after having surgery on Monday morning. I had a hiatal hernia so they had to repair that while they were in there, I am finally able to keep water down so they let me go home. I havent had any pain meds since monday since they all make me vomit. same thing with the anti-nausea medication. I ate a popsicle today !!! tomorrow I am going to try to start working on my vitamins and protein intake. I have no hunger at all right now. Just trying to take it was and get my water in.

I have been a food snob for years and am proud of it. Lets just say I didn't gain my weight on McDonald's french fries. so my new quest is to find delicious , healthy, protein packed recipes. To all the expierenced VSGer's please let me know if this recipe is a keeper. Ingredients 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 2 cloves garlic, minced 2 (6-ounce) bags baby spinach 1 (15-ounce) can cannelloni beans, drained and rinsed 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar 1 teaspoon kosher salt 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper Directions In a large nonstick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil, over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add 1/2 of the spinach and cook for 2 minutes until wilted. Repeat with the remaining spinach. Let the mixture cool for a few minutes. Place the remaining olive oil, spinach mixture, cannelloni beans, lemon juice, balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper in the bowl of a food processor. Blend until the mixture is smooth. Transfer to a small serving bowl. Serve with endive spears, crostini or pita chips.

welcome. i am pretty new here also but have gained a lot of information since coming to this site

I was told no Caffiene at all and only 16oz of decaf beverages per day

Monday the 2nd for me :-)

it was Zofran that they gave you not xanax.... Zofran is a 4/8Mg tabet ODT for Nausea and Xanax is an anti-anxiety medication which they sometimes give for severe nausea & vomiting bt that doesnt go under your tongue. So I am going to be safe and say that it was Zofran
