Back To Work And Lunch/nsv



Recommended Posts

This is my first time back to work and ordering with everyone. I felt really good being able to join in and not feel like I am so restricted. I just chose healthy and ate a small portion. We can get back to normal. This was a huge salad. I will be 7 weeks tomorrow.

This is what I ordered Grilled Chick salad w/ff feta

This is what I ate from that. It took 35 min to eat.

Wow you did good. I would be lucky to get down one chicken strip. I wonder if I should be worried. I'm 5 months out!

It's so funny - I miss salads so much. I never thought I'ld say that, but here I am! Congrats. on your first meal out-it looks like you were mindful if what to order and stopped eating when you were full-perfect! Keep up the good work!

It was only 1strip I cut it really small and took my time. Once I heard the gurgling I stopped eating. Now I put my timer for 45min so I can drink. I'm finding it easier at work than at home.

Holly- me too! after surgery salad became my craving. Before surgery I didn't even want a salad. It's weird the changes this brings.

Definitely a good food choice! I'm glad most places offer a grilled chicken salad now days.

I think if I slowed down my eating I could get more in...

I still have things to work on

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
