    Spoke to one of the hospital nurses today who didn't think it was the worst thing that I start my next phase a day early.

    I made the Bariatric Eating Egg Custards..couldn't finish 1 but it was awesome and super easy to make.

    I just sneezed and OMG that hurt like you know what...can't wait for that to end..have terrible allergies and the pollen in NC is awful!

    Thanks - me too! I had 1/2 egg custard and I plan to have the other half for breakfast today. I definitely recommend it :)

    Starting to feel better except my husband and I walked the dogs - I had my older dog who is 11 years old and she pulled me and now I have a little more pain in the spot that was painful to begin with so needless to say I am going to have to be more careful with the dogs

    Oh man - that's rough, I can just imagine the feeling! But nice that you got out for a walk! Today is beautiful here and we have a park play date at 1, I'm hoping to get 30 min to myself to take a quiet walk. I am not hungry, but still acting hangry! My kids are just getting at every last nerve - most likely because I'm still trying to take it easy and they aren't, lol! Such is life :)

    You are too funny! I have to figure out when I need to eat and when I am hungry - more important I have to figure out to slow down! I just ate 1/4 c of blended chicken salad and I have a pain in the middle of my chest...not sure if it is that I ate too fast or too much..can't wait to figure this thing out!

    Good luck at work today - I am working from home for a couple of weeks starting today. I am also having bathroom issues but figure it is probably due to lack of eating solid food. My doctors told me to get miralax before I had surgery
