Question of the Day?

Hi! I wanted to post a "Question of the Day" to get to know you better and get everyone involved. If I can think of one, I will try and post one everyday. What food do you or will you miss most post op? I have to say my one MAJOR food addiction is sunflower seeds. Ummm umm. I am not really addicted to anything sugar and I don't have any habits like smoking. Just sunflower seeds. I know that you can eat them in small portions if you are capable afterwards but right now, I eat them everyday and go through a big bag of Davids every two days. I think it will be the hardest food habit to kick. What about you? Misty

Hi Misty, I would say having no chocolate. I'm a chocoalholic. those Hersery Bars, second best thing to what can I say, out side of the Christmas candies I make every year for my sons. I will start on those after Thanksgiving, including making their jerky. c u later. Good Kathy's

Good Misty with the 'Question Of The Day' Let me see, I think that the chocolate and the chinese chow mein noodles are going to give me a fight I have a weakness for this stuff I don't either or Thanks for the post! It's a great Kathy does 'Quotes Of The Day' & I usually do 'TN Roll Call' although Kathy is so sweet enough to do it for me until I can get back into the groove of things She's doing a great job Take Care ML

Gosh Misty, This is one I would really have to think about. I ADORE most all food's. I can't say that I will be when I have my surgery tho, I am WANTING it too bad. I can't wait to feel like because it is over. Have a nice day. Sara.

These are the kinds of answers that are good to hear. Weighing in from the DS side of the question, there are no fat restrictions and most report tolerating almost everything. Even carbonation is ok. So diets are very 'normal' within the 'protein first' restriction. I'm preebie, but many DSer's time or totally avoid those quantum gas/fat combos like blooming onions because *everyone* will suffer afterward LOL. I might miss those, but it's something that is so totally off limits now anyway (heart attack on a plate) that I seldom have them, so maybe it won't be a big deal. Denise in Ark
