Happened to me after having a baby! I was like WTF? Toodles, Rue

I started using My Fitness Pal to track my food. I have no clue as to what my nutrient goals should be. How much carbs, fats, & protein should I have each day? Toodles, Rue

I just bought the peaches & cream a few days ago in Surprise AZ. Toodles, Rue

They will change their tune after they see how hard you have worked & how amazing you are going to look too! Toodles, Rue

Has anyone eaten baby food for the puréed food? Just wondering. Is so did you make it yourself or buy it off the shelf? Toodles, Rue

Today I made bone broth with 3 marrow bones, 1/2 an onion, some carrots, celery, parsley, bay leaves & garlic in my crock pot. Saved the carrots & pureed them with some of the broth for when I can have them the week after my surgery. Placed the broth 4-8oz into breast milk collection bags (they are sturdier then regular zip-lock bags) & put everything into the freezer. I also froze some in an ice cube tray to use later when I make more puréed food. I bough bone broth before when I had to do a liquid diet before a colonoscopy last year. It was so gross! I knew I could make it better & I did! Toodles, Rue

I haven’t had my WLS yet (11 more days) but I have had a few other surgeries where I have been blown up with co2. Sometimes the pain in shoulders (because the gas rises) has been worse then the surgery! Toodles, Rue

I just made my own carrots tonight when I made some bone broth if my liquids. Put them in the freezer for the purée stage. Toodles, Rue

Using a heating pad is the best thing for the co2 gas pain! Toodles, Rue

I did make my daughter’s baby food. I never bought the store stuff. Too bad I don’t still have the recipes. Thank goodness for Pinterest now! Toodles, Rue

I have never like artificial sweeteners. But I have been trying some lately. Today I bought some yogurt with some in to try! It is so awful! I don’t know if I can do it! Any suggestions? Toodles, Rue

It’s the shock of surgery. My daughter had major back surgery when she was 15. They told us to bring pads with us to the hospital. (We knew she would be there for at least 5 days) Sure enough, she had a period 3 days after the surgery. So also had to have surgery again 2 1/2 weeks after the 1st one. 3 days later, her friend came to visit her. Toodles, Rue

My mom would go on a diet & then my dad would loose weight! It would make her so mad! Toodles, Rue

See if there are any Hanes/Playtex outlet stores near you. They should do fittings there. Or look for specialty bra shops in your area. Or maybe even an upscale department store has a bra fitter. They are hard to come by anymore. When you do find a bra that you fits you, put your shirt back on so you can see how the girls look in your clothes with the bra on. Toodles, Rue

I have been having a “Farewell to Food” party every day for 3 weeks. Today was my last binge of 3 Dunkin Donuts. I never did make it to Krispy Kream ☹️ Toodles, Rue

Have a safe drive. Put everything thing in the car tonight or by the door & try to get a good nights sleep. Good luck & let us know how it went! Toodles, Rue

Anyone have to do a bowel prep before a RNY? I can see the benefit since the doc will be attaching your intestine to your new stomach. Just tell me it’s not as bad as getting ready for a colonoscopy! Toodles, Rue

My dr suggested making shakes with whey powder, unsweetened almond milk & 1/2 a banana. You could add your own sweetener to it. Toodles, Rue

You got this! Toodles, Rue

We are on the same day! Toodles, Rue

I had an allergic reaction to the nasty bowel prep I had to do in December. Now I’m worried. Toodles, Rue
