The best meal I ever ate



Recommended Posts

I consider myself something of a gourmand and I love well prepared beautiful food. I have made food from all cuisines and was also the head baker in a european bakery renowned in this area.

But the cup of Trader Joes organic Tomato Soup thinned with a half a cup of milk I just had is probably the best eating experience I have ever had. After my last week....I savored every sip and experienced it in a way I can't remember ever doing. Each sip suffused my body with the most divine feelings. My senses were 100% alive!

And tomorrow- I finally get yogurt if I thin it to liquidy, I mixed a fruit at the bottom Greek yogurt thoroughly tonight and then strained the bits of fruit out. It is glistening in the fridge awaiting me. I think one new food now that I am allowed thin liquids is enough.

Meggie the TJ's cottage cheese and their greek yogurt are amazingly awesome too! Lynn is on her way to Vegas as we speak and as soon as she gets here (probably about 4 days drive) we're going to TJ's and shop. love love love Trader Joe's stuff.

Tomato, icky. Not sure if that's my cup of tea, but maybe. It just seems a shame to waste it by not dunking a grilled cheese sandwich into it lol

XOXO Renee`

and yeah...your face does look thinner! WOOT!

Tomato Soup (plain ol' Campbell's) got me through the first two weeks, with all the sweet liquids.. Nothing ever tasted so good... until I started plopping a spoonful of plain Greek yogurt into it, which made it pure bliss. :D Try it!

You know Meggie, I had the same type of experience yesterday too - my hubby warmed me up some cream of chicken with mushroom and it just was bland to me, so we had this cream of corn Soup that had some spiciness to it, so I had him add some of that soup to the cream of chicken soup - OMG it was liquid heaven, I had never tasted anything so good before -

I sure can tell that my tastes are changing, because what I liked last week, I am not as fond of this week -

Glad you had a music melody going on in your mouth yesterday! LOL

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
