    I think when you can eat solid food. You can also warm it up in the microwave. I did it for 15 sec. It gets warm and soft.

    key lime greek yogurt
    tempeh (who knew meatless options could be so tasty)
    kale chips
    homemade dairy free avocado/lime ice cream.. though I just started that when I hit maintenance, easy way to get in high calories and healthy fats.

    Weight on surgery day: 321lbs.

    Greek yogurt. This surgery really has given me a great appreciation for food in general. I never really gave it much thought before.
