salad FAIL 😧

I ran out of salad greens so I just took whatever veggies where in the fridge (napa cabbage, pea shoots & carrots) and tossed em up with my vinaigrette. Well, turns out I don't like raw pea shoots, so I painstakingly picked them out one by one after the first bite.

Also, I tried to recreate that baked egg and avocado thing that @MarvelGirl25 posted a while back, and I guess I left in in the oven too long, as the yolk was disappointingly UN-runny. So that was banished to the edge of the plate as well.

*sigh* and I was so excited to eat it too :(.

I dont think I ever baked an egg with an avocado before? lol I know recently I posted stuffed avocado. But that baked idea sounds good!

Hope everyone had a great dinner last night! I tried to avoid all the heavier foods and stuck to some basics. There was a roasted pork shoulder I didnt even try, a Chifa (Peruvian Chinese fusion) beef stir, oven baked hot wings, Pasta, and a few other items my family members brought over. The pre-surgery me would have tried it all. I ended up making some sauteed asparagus and green Beans last minute so I had other options.

Dinner: The turkey was amazingggggggggg. Props to my dad. I was able to finish the rest of my turkey a few hours after and then I served another 2 oz of it. I never finished my veggies or mashed potatoes.

Third pic are those babies that took forever to make. Its similar to a traditional tamale except the "masa" is made out of grated green bananas, plaintains, taro, and fresh pumpkin. The inside has pork, olives, and chickpeas. I couldnt skip out on this lol

Dessert: I ate half the pumpkin pie filling from that slice. I knew how much sugar was in the pie since I made it so i figured it would be ok as long as i avoided that crust.

Survived Thanksgiving weekend friends!

My family enjoyed zucchini lasagna (ok I enjoyed it but they tried it haha)

I then proceeded to bake about 15 dozen cookies: Hershey kiss blossoms, peanutbutter cup Cookies, and chocolate chip pecan Peanut Butter with some maple Protein Powder thrown in.

Bonus: 3 loaves of zucchini banana bread

Made a quinoa/cucumber salad, super light and fresh.

Something I LOVED before surgery was salad. Like...last meal death row loved. Ever since surgery I can only handle about 2 bites then I need to toss but this one is delicious it.Snapchat-632255567.thumb.jpeg.00695c3264646047a38513f8f3c5ecf1.jpeg Snapchat-113610754.thumb.jpeg.6218760c07ed4b3b055fe3093116f2a2.jpeg Snapchat-883912620.thumb.jpeg.fc7ebd71c7ec08b5f6fee26b9a4ba4d9.jpeg Snapchat-1552204354.thumb.jpeg.f241f3d397740cef11ec5b29dfdd9f62.jpeg 20191130_141459.thumb.jpeg.5bea1effeb8aa32ce3038cdbfe638a67.jpeg

Absolute personal favourite place in Toronto (is actually in a suburb north-east of T.O. proper😞 Sumilicious.

I’m marking this down for when we head back to Toronto in March.

I didn’t have time to take pictures at Thanksgiving since I was hosting. I didn’t eat as much as I thought I would. I anticipated I’d eat my weight in stuffing but ended up having about a 1.5 cups over 2 days.

I’m not much of a dessert person but this year pumpkin pie was my favorite item.

      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.
