HEY DEB! Well my eating was proly the worst since i went back on solids post op. I am still off with my stomach....and being my primary doctor suggested no dairy...alot of what i normally is eat is not touchable. I even closed my daycare yesterday,,,,,napped long....so i didnt eat much! Breakfast: BANANA LUNCH: hand full of salt free pretzels DINNER: salmon (frozen grotons ) I am not sure what to eat being i cant have protein and im not feeling that great still.....i cant have my puddings, eggs, cheese, protein shakes cause they have dairy and until im improved doctor said no dairy. I am slightly better today only went potty twice and wasnt up since 3 am going so hopefully tomrorow i can eat more normal. THANKS FOR a great thread DEB....its bitter cold on LONG ISLAND today and i guess were in for more SNOW friday! GONNA be a rough winter and im not tolerating cold weather well at all !

Lisa, I still can not believe you are not feeling better ~hugs~ Just be careful and make sure you are drinking enough water! What about soups? They always seem to help some what. Cold here as well...brrrrr... and I am not sure about the snow up here, I guess we will just have to see. This year is rough as well since the weight loss I am so cold most of the time. Never mind the heating prices. Well take care hun and I hope you are feeling better soon ~hugs~ Debra P

Pat, hello there and it is good to see you ~hugs~ Great meal plan btw.... I was keeping track at fitday.com but now I am used to what protein intake should be so I have been slacking off. I know I should keep that going but wow it takes so much time. Thanks and have a great day! ~hugs~ Debra P

good morning miss deb! I actually made it online before 2 p.m. today...things are slowing down here at work a little so this should get better... B - south beach cinnamon raisin cereal/protein bar L - Lite & fit yogurt smoothy D - South beach peanut butter meal replacement bar (tasted okay but made me sick ) S - protein shake lots of water and vitamins... it's just way too cold here in Holbrook and it's not even officially winter...I am not looking forward to January & February have a wonderful day! hugssssss....Linda

Linda, back at ya.... Debra P

thanks deb.... I cant believe either how long this is going thru me. EVEN called my PCP doctor yesterday who made me a little angry asking me if i ate foods im not supposed to as a bypass patient. I was mad and sad i dont do that and i think 117 lbs in 6 months says i dont. I was mad. BUT he said to watch dairy products and increase my immodium consumption. TODAY is the best day i had since last friday when this began so im hopeing. The doctor said he never heard of a virus lasting this long and truthfully me either.BUT my two kids relapsed now on throwing up after 24 hours fine so go figure. I am going to eat a normal lunch...meatball parm. (something i learned from ur eating menues!) thanks for asking. STAY WARM and i agree heating costs also stink with this brutal winter ahead!
