Loving the mushies!

I had a soft scrambled egg today and i almost fell to the floor and wept with joy. Between the pre-op and the post-op it has been about a month since I ate much of anything. I was full from 1 egg for about 4 hours. Go figure. Breakfast used to a huge bowl of Cereal and toast. It was so nice to just TASTE something that I had to chew.

LOL, I felt the same way about my first creamy Soup after banding (almost a year ago)! I'll never forget that experience... No creamy soup has ever tasted better!

OH MY GOSH ME TOO!!! I just made thinned out mashed potatoes with garlic and some butter and a little bit of Parmesan cheese! It was soooo good!

I made tilapia with Tomato sauce, and flaked the fish really well and it stayed down.

I still have to figure out to cook fish besides deep frying it and baking it with brown sugar/butter/garlic (really good on salmon by the way.

Do you just put in the oven?

I sauteed a piece of really well chopped onion in Pam. Then added a can of Tomato sauce. Let that cook a little while and then placed the tilapia in the pan and covered it for 10 minutes, flipped the fish and cooked it covered for 10 more. You can use that for just about any type of white fish. It stayed moist. This recipe is courtesy of my mom. My sister in law uses the onion/tomato sauce for chicken too.

Tomato sauce and onion are no fat, using the Pam, no fat, fish no fat. Fish had about 50 calories,( about 4 oz) tomato sauce 20, onion and Pam 0.

Between the pre opt phase and the 2 weeks after surgery liquid, I spent 4 weeks on liquid with it more restrictive after the surgery. It was so nice to go to mushies.

I went to O'Charleys last night and had some of their potato Soup. I'm sure that it wasn't very good in the calories dept, but I only had about 8 tablespoons. I thought I was going to have to change my draws!!!
