What are you eating/doing Wednesday?

Good morning everybody. Very cold and windy here this morning as well. I don't like it. Please bring on the sunshine already. Skipped the gym this morning because I have to have my 2 year bloodwork done. Fasting for 13 hours then the gym then 9 or 10 vials of blood sounded like a disaster waiting to happen.

I will admit I've been MIA with posting lately, just seems like it was the same few people. I will try and start the thread more regularly and see if we get others joining in.

Wow your able to eat that, I was worried I would be 2 months on liquids and you just had surgery in March !!!

You need to remember that I'm through TWH. I was told at pre-op that Guelph is 2 weeks clear fluids followed by 2 weeks full fluids so keep this in mind about where you might be in the process. I started pureed food on Monday.

Oh right you are through TWH. Yes Guelph is different.

Silly question so your pureeing this food? Sounds like a great meal!

Cottage cheese is considered a liquid, refried beans are already pureed and meatloaf is basically pureed.

Oh wow, the things I am learning. All this will help me so much as I thought we had to actually put almost everything in a blender.

Thanks

You actually are supposed to put foods in the puree stage in a blender. You should be able to eat them through a large straw. Meatloaf and toast are absolutely not pureed.

I've never heard anyone claim meatloaf or melba toast were pureed before.

You could put a KFC Bowl through a blender, doesn't mean you should

There are some hinky programs out there!
