What are you eating today?

Debbie, what surgery did you have and when? I see your meals are quite different than mine in many ways. I am curious to know what different people are doing with what procedures and what level of success they are acheiving.

I had the sleeve gasterectomy on Nov 3.  I was on a liquid diet for 6 week after my surgery, then on mushies for 2 weeks, then on to other foods.  I haven't had any trouble with any foods, so far anyway.   My dr wants his patients on 1200 cal per day.  I know it is alot more than most people's plan.   I really debated whether to follow it or not, but decided to follow it and if I didn't lose then I would try the plans I hear on here the most. 

I have several things going against me though.  I am 58 (in March), I have multiple medical issues, the most severe is rheumatoid arthritis, fibromylgyia, and osteoarthritis in both knees.  I was told 2 years ago that I need bilateral knee replacements.  I am in a wheelchair and am only able to walk a very short distance till I am in severe pain. 

I'm sorry that you have all of those medical issues! How is the food plan working for you?
