I'm getting close to my surgery date and I weighed the other day and I had not lost ANY weight.  As you can see...  I'm getting really serious...
I'm going to be doing mainly a protein drink diet until surgery- starting today.  I'll keep you closely advised.  Also... I have been drinking water like I am a fish...
Blessings for your day,

It was a VERY hungry day for me.  Look at those carbs!!!  Wow!  I gotta figure something out on that!  My printout from Keesler says try to stay under 40 grams of carbs per day.  I know that after surgery, I will be eating less and that will help considerably.  And I think my carbs are good ones, but I dunno.  (Dex, where are you???)
I ate:
B:  1/2 cup of cottage cheese with 1 medium apple chopped up on it and cinnamon & equal on top
S:  1/2 cup of cottage cheese with 1 small banana chopped up on it and a good sprinkle of the dry sugar free strawberry jellow mixed in.  YUM!!!
L:  two slices of turkey breast and lettuce wrapped around a string cheese
S:  A homemade taco salad made with LOTS of lettuce, ground turkey, and 2 small corn tortillas instead of chips BUT with REAL ranch dressing....(and this meal was better than ex-lax!!!)
At least I am eating healthier, and doing okay for a person on a diet - calorie wise.  It's them durn carbs, tho.....And I want a sandwich with REAL whole wheat bread (You know those short, fat loaves of wheat bread with the oatmeal flakes on top!) and a ton of mayo so bad!!!  
Smooch

S: SF Blue Bunny Ice Cream Bar (Made me dump--too much Sugar Alcohols)

Hey Becky--I used to make soft boiled eggs for breakfast and eat it mixed with 1/2 piece of toast. I cant eat a whole piece of bread yet. I dont think your food choices are that bad. I think you like tators though.. haha... its ok. I used to would only eat the soft foods. Harder foods are hard for me. Esp roast, ham, pork chops, etc... 
Your doing great. 
PS... I LOST 2 MORE POUNDS
