April - Looks good!  Keep it up!!  It'll help you develop good habits for when you're post-op! FYI - After surgery, your breakfast will only be able to consist of ONE of those items!!!  Hard to believe, huh? Hang in there! Tia

All my tis and almost all of my fluids B - Protein shake L - Grilled chicken breast from a Wendy's sandwich - Without the bun D - Tried Scallops (Didn't work out), Tried Shrimp Salad (Didn't work out) - ended up eating peanut butter crackers (200 calories).  This was the best meal I've had in some time.   S - S/F popsicle and SF pudding.

Hey Lisa - Well, it's all trial and error and will be for a while.  Sometimes, I STILL can't do scallops - it'**** or miss.  Maybe you should chop the shrimp extra fine or add more mayo - that MIGHT help.  Don't give up!! Tia
