Couldn't find the Newman's Soy Crisps at Publix, Walmart, Winn Dixie, or Whole Foods. I did get 365 oven baked soy crispettes in 3 different flavors.....7 gr protein for 19 crisps...Can't eat them all at once or I will be sick though. Meijer in Michigan has the Newman's in an orange bag, and I've seen them on line by the case. My daughter had to tell her 15 and 11 year old to stay out of them so I guess they must be good. Told by nut that I could have them at 5 weeks but am just trying them today. 16 gram carbs, 120 calories but I have to count protein.

biggest regret
carstanger replied to rockdutchess82's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I don't regret it but feel sorry for myself when I have followed the rules and stall. My doctor did a scope of my stomach and then found a hiatal hernia I didn't know I had. Also gall bladder ultrasound as I had problems several years before. Totally nonfunctioning and no bile .So I had 3 procedures and scar tissue taken down. Down 38 pounds and 66 years old. You can do this! -

I had 2 weeks liquids before and 3 weeks afterwards but you only have to do that 1 time!!! Then soft proteins. I'm at 10 weeks, and the liquids are getting to me!!! I get busy and don't think about drinking water, etc. Anyway, I'm trying. Have lost 38 pounds as of last week, but haven't been near a scale this week so will see when I find one. You can do this!!

Made chili with 2 cans chopped tomatoes, Bush's chili mix mild, 1 can light kidney beans, and 1 pounds ground turkey. Added onions and some spices, but traveling so don't have much in the condo. Made a pot, figured out all the ingredients and can only eat about 1/4 at a time. Getting better though.

Several months out- weird vertigo spells/equilibrium issues anyone?
carstanger replied to sirensiren's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Had some today, with a funny feeling in my stomach. Had been at the computer. Maybe not enough fluids, but.....they are not settling well. 10 weeks out today. \ -
I am on MFP and am honest about what I eat. So if I eat something I shouldn't, so be it!!! I'm an adult and can make my decisions. So far, I';m surprised something hasn't been said about my lack of exercise. Just not feeling great right now.

We either share a meal or I take it home for the next day. At a buffet last night with 30 people. They charged me the child's price.
