No fair! Where do you live, and can I come hang out with you? We've got snow and freezing rain and highs in the 20's for the next week or two. Spring is nowhere in sight.

Kat77 how are you doing ? Are you feeling better and eating?

Ok so today I feel better then yesterday and I think I might be headed on the right track I stopped at 4 this morning at a local store to see what I might be able to try to eat. I think I figured out my issues from last night. NO MORE MILK FOR ME! None! I drink an 8 oz shake yesterday before work and even with 1/2 % milk , it was hell . I picked you some of those cheese Peanut Butter crackers to see if that would slow things down. Boy was I scared to try those. But all went great. Eat 2 crackers every couple hours and felt much better. I love that I read every label every time now to check for Protein and sugar levels I also bought ham and as soon as I get brave enough I am going to do a thin slice of ham with a slice of cheese wrapped in it. Also for the first time this AM I drank alittle too fast and learned my lesson there too! Talk about waves in your pouch . Omgodness! That came back to visit . So I feel like I am going the right direction and couldn't be happier about that

If you like milk try almond milk unsweetened its great for shakes and cereals... Watch out for cheese too, white cheeses seem to be better.

My first attempt at dinner wish me luck

Very thin slice of ham with a half piece of cheese rolled in it .. Smells yummy. I will check in later and let everyone know how it went

So, I'm apparently an easy bariatric patient (not a bad thing!!!) no signs of stricture or obstructions, scars looking great, nothing worrisome at all. He's amazed I'm working full time and running a household single handedly and keeping the kiddo up with soccer, cub scouts, camping, etc. he laughed when I told humid been pretty tired up til now (actually this week things are feeling ALMOST normal). And my weight loss is fine for my age, weight, revision status, etc. I'm not allowed to compare myself to others . I'm now free to have toasted breads, crackers, brown rice, ground meats, and thinly sliced meats. YAY!!!! So going to buy deli meat tomorrow!!! Would LOVE to get to the point I can get my Protein without a shake a day!!!!!!
