heading off to costco now to stock my fridge/pantry (and probably come home with 10 boxes of aluminum foil, or mabye a kayak, lol...who else goes to costco and buys sh*te they don't need??!?!?!?)

While we have a Costco in Brisbane it’s a 45+ min drive away so couldn’t be bothered but it sounds like an Australian visit to Bunnings (hardware). My sister-in-law & I went for a bag of potting mix and some of those big gardening hand rake scoop things which would have cost us less than $20 total. We came out with an overflowing trolley and had spent about $400 between us. Outdoor Xmas lights, pool inflatables (xmas presents for my young nieces & nephew), plants, dog Shampoo & conditioner, microfibre cleaning cloths, silk flowers, hanging basket, … I promise we needed all of it 🤣🤣🤣

ha, the coconut bun did the stomach filling job, i guess. softish bread tends to take a loooooong while for me to digest....🤷🏻‍♀️

Funny you say that.

So I eat pretty small portions but my stomach empties quickly. Yesterday I only ate half a small salad for lunch and went to a doctors appointment which lasted forever so I was famished by the time I got home, the hubs had some homemade sliders hot and waiting for me, so I took off the top part of the mini bun and almost finished the whole patty and the other half of the bun. Usually I’m hungry again 1.5-2 hours after dinner so I would snack on something before bed, but man I was soooo full I couldn’t even have Water without being uncomfortable. Reckon it was that half bun?

Toad in the hole is something different @ms.sss. It’s sausages, usually beef but can be pork, baked in yorkshire pudding batter. Served with onion gravy, mashed potatoes and whatever other vegetables.

well that sounds even more delicious...you have inspired me just now to try my hand at making yorkshire pudding...never have but always wanted to try.

      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.
