Sounds quite delicious. . how do you prepare your eggs in the morning? I find myself doing 2 eggs scrambled more frequently than not. . and I like to dab a little salsa and low fat sour cream on them. . it's quite yummo!

lunch I had about 1/2 cup refried Beans (Nutritionist says I need to get more carbs/calories in diet and suggested this. . . I let it happen cause it was good)

dinner I'm probably going to grill up a 3oz salmon filet with some lemon herb spice, with a small salad if I can handle it.

I must try your taco salad tho, that sounds quite good!

Also, it's inspiring to know you're sticking this out even unfilled. . you should be proud of yourself! You're doing awesome!

For Breakfast I had a sandwhich round with cheese Tomato lettuce and 45 cal cotto lunchmeat.

For a snack I had celery sticks and three dill spears, dipped in habanero mustard!

Tonight I will have salad and chicken using lipton onion mix and some Soup (new recipe).

If I have another snack, maybe some sunflower seeds :w00t::blushing:

And here I was thinking your salmon sounded good. I think that's going to be dinner tomorrow!

I made up my own taco seasoning mix because the store bought tend to have sugar and I watch my carbs very close. This is a good site for low carb recipes. I've made a number of them and they're quite good!

Thanks for the compliment but to be honest I don't see that I have a choice unless I want to go back to being out of breath just walking across the living room! nonono.

Elcee,

There was a show on tv a few decades ago called 'HeeHaw'. Sort of a down home country show that spotlighted country singers. One of the skits they did was called "What's for dinner, grandpa?" and grandpa would say, "Corn pone and honey, ham with red eye gravy and buttered grits" or some such.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
