I may need to pick you brain on the process. Where do you get your kefir grains?
I use organic milk but not raw but only c cause I can't get it here, but here is a great starting video.

Made zucchini noodle bolognese last night. Mixed the noodles in with the bolognese & added a tin of lentils too. Ended up with what looks like enough for 10 meals 😁 so froze several single serves. This is supposed to be a one cup ladle full but I heaped it a bit & then couldn't eat it all.

It was on the milder side of jerk.

smoked salmon cream cheese mousse atop mini potato cakes (omg so good, ate 3 and all the garnish)

AND

roasted beet tartare boats (not nearly as good, ate about half of one..too much "boat" and not enough beet)

AND

1/2 bottle of wine, 2 espresso martinis, 1 vodka soda and a couple sips of some waaaaay-too-sweet lemonade-elderflower cocktail.

You can get them from Amazon and other places in the net. All you need it a tablespoon and you add it to a cup of milk. After 24 hours at room temperature, strain it and reuse the grains over and over. I have had the same grains for many years. I make kefir cheese, kefir drink, whatever I feel like that given day/week. It is fun lol.

@Tomo have you ever made kefir Water?

No, just milk kefir but I've thought about trying it (also thought about trying to make kombucha).

My lovely meals from the past few days! 🙃 Transient ischemic bowel (or that’s what they told me) so I won myself a 3 1/2 day hospital stay with 2 being npo.

I’ll spare you the first meal of blended chicken noodle Soup (it was terrible!).

The next meal was “ground beef stroganoff”, mashed potatoes and gravy, green Beans, and broccoli with apple crisp (I had the rest with Peanut Butter and ice cream before bed).

Also, those hospital eggs are DRY and the peanut butter went into my oatmeal.

      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.
