Greetings From Hurricane Sandy-Land

[secondchancesally 43]

I'm 16 days post op and SO apply to be back in my home AND have heat! Our grocery store was barren. Shelves completely empty. They have produce and canned stuff but no meats, no frozen things, no dairy. This is all a bummer for a girl on mushies. Thank goodness for healthy babyfoods! the veggie options are great and the portions are perfect for bandsters but i can totally understand why my babies spit out any of the meat options! one day I was looking forward to yogurt, cottage cheese etc. so I made a trip uptown where life is normal in NYC and filled in on supplies. Mmmmnnn tuna, laughhingcow low fat cheese, yogurt smoothies, mashed potato mix with Unjury cheese powder Protein. Down 17 lbs from start of pre op diet. Haven't started exercising yet. In fact I still haven't had my post op visit because NYU apparently is in a bad way and not re opening for weeks!!
