Nope! You just stirred the Soup and moved the chicken around! :lol:

I actually ate until I was worried that I might be sick on the hour and a half ride home. :( But I stopped before I got too full . . . but just one more bite . . . It's just soooo tempting!

Last night I tried to do a before and after but forgot the after. Here's the before. I was able to eat it all but it was a very small portion of the ricotta bake.

Lol ... well, like 80% of a tortilla!

I'm such a cheap date these days. I mean, that taco cost $2.50 (which is a lot for a street style taco!) and I'll be eating it for days!

Coworkers keep joking that I'll be such a cheap date now.

Tonight's dinner was a slice of ham filled with cheese with some salsa. I'm using small plates. Just realized it looks like a huge portion but wasn't.

Made the hubby a grilled ham and cheese. First time I've cooked for him since before the pre-op diet. I'm very thankful how supportive he has been. He hasn't been eating in front of me. It's nice to eat together again.

Extra paprika ! It is so good!

The sauce the Beans marinated in is at the bottom and I used it like dressing : lime juice, Water, tumeric, cayenne pepper, ancho chili powder, onion and garlic powder, tumeric, black pepper, basil, parsley and a dash of hazelnut oil

      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.
