Covid, arg!

i'm still testing positive but my symptoms have improved exponentially.

Ah - thought it might be that. I wish you a speedy recovery. Nasty virus with such long term effects.

My food choices have been repetitive and too boring to photograph but this is something new: Kombucha and seltzer Water. I dipped my toe back into carbonation and I’m enjoying the change. (Also Naan w/ havarti cheese, hummus and carrots.)

Thank you! I like that it is family focused. I have not cooked anything beyond a girl dinner in a while. I think Early quarantine cooking really burned me out.

Date night! I chose Katz’s Deli to give my BF a sampling of a NYC landmark. tuna salad half sandwich, potato knish, split pea Soup and pickles (I had the soup) I think he liked it. 😂

Croissant w/ turkey bacon and cheese

I’m always surprised (and annoyed) at how many calories are in the foods I make at home. I won’t be repeating this meal for a while. 🫠 😂

Ok so I lied. I did make the breakfast sandwich again (this time with egg instead of cheese). It was either this or eat a block of goat cheese with pretzels or 8 mini snickers. I’m avoiding grocery shopping. Anyone else eating really random stuff out of laziness?

No judgement here! I realized that sometimes if I have to cook I’d rather not eat 🤡

Also I’ll take your side on Asteroid City (having never seen it 😂) I hate all Wes Anderson films, except The Squid and The Whale.

      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.
