Egg salad lunch today... And, Mr. Sophie (our resident baker) just made these cinnamon swirl Cookies for a neighborhood Christmas stroll-by from a safe distance. Found this tea towel for a friend's gift. Unfortunately, Christmas calories are not on my menu! For today, I Celebrate my 2nd year sleeve anniversary. Mrs. Sophie and cookie calories all year long departed that very day December 17, 2018. No longer miss that out-of-control decadence. Very Happy Holiday season everyone!

Fish stew with cod, scallops, and shrimp. Yep, ate on the couch with the bowl in my lap. It was good! 😋

That fish stew looks dang delicious. Is there anywhere to eat beside the couch?? 😂

Happy anniversary Sophie. Should we expect Mr Sophie’s Christmas cookie care packages in the mail soon? Tee hee!

I haven’t been as meticulous as usual, and I’ve been less active, Sorting through Pokémon cards doesn’t burn calories! I swear I gain weight SO easy! It’s only 2.5 pounds but it was quick. I decided to get back to the basics today and made a very tasty Asian salad.

Let’s just say I’m shocked. We have some crazy valuable cards.

Breakfast was super filling so I ended up skipping lunch. Had an omelette minus the slice of toast and butter which was for my bf and dinner was homemade chicken Soup.

I dunno about you guys buy my enjoyment of soupy-soups has plummeted since wls. I just cant eat them comfortably anymore. In order not to feel overly full and ick, I need to drink the liquid first, then have some solids. And if I want more liquid after that, I'd have to wait, and often, by then I don't want any anymore. Or worse, I forget and don't wait long enough (since its sitting in front of me) and then I regret it. Sigh.

For this reason, Soups are mostly the very thick chowder kind for me know.

Our Christmas celebration was on the 26th this year and we hosted. I’m still trying to recover from all that cooking. I made pineapple ham, pernil (roasted pork shoulder) , rice, chicken Madeira, garden salad, potato salad, lasagna, stuffed mushrooms, jalapeño poppers, cod cakes, a charcuterie board, mini avocado toasts topped with Cajun shrimp and for desert I made an orange cake, Peruvian hot chocolate, and chocolate covered strawberries. I bought baklava, Christmas Cookies and paneton.

Not sure if it’s just me but everytime I cook I lose my appetite. I sat there and watched everyone eat and after they left I ate from the charcuterie board, had some hot chocolate, and went straight to sleep lol

Here are some pics I managed to take:

Sometimes this happens to me too, so I just give my food away.

Sort of a chicken cheesesteak vibe, stuffed bell pepper. Chicken breast, onions, green pepper, mushrooms and cheese. As usual, I ate the whole thing 🙄😋

It's going to take some more weeks I guess. Corona doesn't make it any easier. Everything has to be done online and via e-mail as it seems.

I usually don't mind that but since all the people who usually don't do that order online, contact stores online etc. - there seems to be a huge we-are-behind-answering-mails thing going on right now.

      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.
