My trip to Clark's Trading Post

So, this was my first big outing since surgery.  Two weeks post op.  I am on mushy foods at this point.  I took a bag of soy chip type stuff I got online----know that it is okay because it melts in your mouth....very yummy by the way from Kay's Bariatrics I think. 

Anyways.  We are at the little snack shack thing and I am looking at the menu.  Hummm...what about the tuna sandwhich?  I ask and it was just tuna and mayo.  Okay.  (BTW, why is a crappy tuna sandwhich almost $2 more than a burger?).  My kids got burgers and fries and a frappe.  I got a milk.  I ate the tuna out of the sandwhich and no bread or lettuce/tomato for me (no raw veggies yet!).  I was FULL.  FULL----way fuller than I have been on cream soup and protien pudding!

I watched them down the burgers and fries and frappe...and then the 14 yr old asks for a soda.  LOL.  Within about an hour they were asking for ice cream. 

Being at home, I have found it very tempting to 'graze' but I was much more satisfied being out and about.  I am hoping that getting back to work tomorrow will help me out with that. 

Anyways, fun was had by all.  My three year old really liked the train---we had a long talk about the wolfman before so he was all set.

Peace,
Michelle

That is really awesome Michelle.  It is amazing to watch people eat now, and know that I was once just like that.  We are all making healthier choices!!!  Glad you had fun, and take it easy at work.

Wow, back to work already?!?!?  Don't overdo it.  If you get tired, go home if you can.  Glad to hear that you're progressing along so well.
