Salmon Paté on lettuce bun w/tomato

Paté has been weighed out and everything 😳

No afters so yeah 3oz of soft Protein (lets say 2.75 without the mayonnaise) and a few oz of vegetables is very full for me

IGNORE THE TACOS lol

We went out to dinner last night. I find Mexican restaurants a pretty easy place to order from. The fajitas pictured were my dinner, (the tacos & rice were my skinny son’s. ) I order them without any extras, no cheese, sour cream, rice, Beans, tortillas or guac. I ate about 1/3 so I have leftovers for today.

I use MFP for tracking and chose On The Border restaurant chain for logging purposes. I figure it must be close, I don’t eat this often enough to be worried about a few differences.

This restaurant is incredible. I find it comforting to know I can go out to eat, and still thoroughly enjoy it.

Yeah. If I raise them to 1000-1200 I'm very very firmly in maintenance. If I want to lose at all, I still have to be between 600-850. :( I honestly think it's the combination of hypothyroid/low Free T3 and the cancer drug I take. But it is what it is. :)

I still get gorgeous food on that amount. I just have to be smart about it.

Hmmm. I thought you said you were eating big girl portions now? These still look like toddler size servings? Not that there's anything wrong with that!!! Did it fill you up?

That's totally a big girl portion compared to the first year or so post op 😛. I would have only been able to eat the beef OR the carrots, maybe one gnocchi, and a bite of the fritter (I wouldn't have even bothered w cauliflower 😂). Yep, totally full. I actually left a carrot and a bit of cauliflower behind. I didn't take an after pic because I couldn't sneak it w the bf here 🤣

      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.
