queen b-bop

Hail Queen! Yes, I was on liquids, then mushies then soft foods! It's a 3-5 day process after the fill. I was really surprised by that and had to back out of a gourmet dinner party hubby and I had committed to. Wow! 20 lbs.! That's fantastic! Next time you're out, take a look at 20 lbs. of sugar and get a real sense of accomplishment! I hit a stall at my 3rd week out of surgery but, since my fill, I am starting to lose again...I guess that's pretty typical. There are some great websites with recipes for bandsters. I found them really helpful because I can get myself into such a cooking rut...same old same old! Mexican, Thai, Indian, were all pretty easy. I whipped up turkey sloppy joes and ate over mashed potatoes last night. (ps...did you know they don't recommend salads anymore? I was floored by that!) Thanks for the compliment...it means alot and back at you! Keep up the good work superwoman!
