Good luck Donna! Remember, fine grit sandpaper can be your friend. No plastics for me! I kinda got lucky. I have about 3 more pounds I want to lose. You know, it's a number thing now. But, I figure if I can fit in size 2 or size 4 jeans (size 7 in juniors), I'm doing okay. lol I got really, really lucky that nothing is really that flabby.
Can't wait to hear more about it! I'm almost jealous. LOL

Topic: Anyone had a PS consult yet!!!
I had one in the begining of August. So excited to start this process!!!! It will be awhile on some of it. I will have to make it in stages LOL! But we are currently attempting to get the insurance to cover the first part (or most of it). Very exciting and I can't wait!!!!!! though I want to lose another 20lbs before I do the lower lift. That my insurance will probably not cover so I will have to wait to get the money together.....but just having the plan on what we are going to do and just having settled on the PS I like.....that is exciting!!!!!
So anyone else working on this part of the journey yet?

Chantel,
So good to hear from you. I just posted my favorite breakfast over on the RNY board this morning.
Breakfast:
1/2 cup Greek Yogurt (0% fat)
1/2 cup Lowfat Cottage Cheese
1/4 cup Kashi Go-Lean Granola
3 spenda packets
1/2 tsp SF Gelatin - Strawberry flavored
2 oz Strawberries
Just over 200 cals and 27 grams of protein....desert for breakfast...this should be illegal. Off to a great PLANNED start to my day.
For your tortillas that you use, have you found the high protein wraps. I like them and the protein is amazing.

Topic: RE: What are you eating?
First, YIPPEE!!!! We have a new look to our message board! And we can use our signatures!!!
Anyway, here's my answer to your question. I'm a bad girl. There are days I can't even look at food let alone eat it. I'm thinking it's depression or something. I've become a fork food pusher. We just got back from lunch. All I did was cut food and move it around. Sadly, Mark got Oreos. Guess who could actually spend a day just eating 6 Oreos and be happy. Sad, sad, sad.
If I'm having a "normal" day I usually have either my Fuzzy Navel protein shake or some cereal for breakfast. I'm like 8 again. I love Lucky Charms. LOL I'll drink a hot tea after I eat. Lunch is either a small salad or grilled chicken at Cracker Barrel. Dinner is whatever I cook. Last night I made Bisquick Healthy Chicken Parm breasts. VERY good. So, I had half a chicken breast (about 2-3 oz), a spoon of mac n cheese and a spoon of stuffing with a little gravy on it. I had Splenda Tea afterwards.
Around 10 pm I watch General Hospital on SoapNet. After my aunt's stepdaughter's recent horror with popcorn (she's 4 years post-op), I steer clear of popcorn! I try to either suck on two SF Fudgesicles (40 cals each) or have a cookie or two. Usually, though, it's the fudgesicles.
I'm jealous you can do leftovers. Any time I warm up food I get the foamies.

Topic: RE: What are you eating?
I craved diet coke right after the surgery, which is weird because I wasn't really a drinker pre-op. And did give in a couple of times but I hate the stuff now. I have had a few sips here and there when I have no other option.
My insides seem to have developed an intolerance to all protein powders! They all give me horrible gas. They didn't in the first few months. No matter how I make them too.
