Oatmeal! Glorious oatmeal!!

Good Morning!

Who am I kidding? GREAT morning!! Today is my 12th Wedding anniversary. 12 years ago today I married the love of my life AND today I am released to eating REAL food (insert happy dance). Today marks the first day of Phase Three - Pureed Foods stage. The Bariatric center I am going to put together a very comprehensive manual to follow. There are even recipes. This morning I made Maple oatmeal. I added some unflavored protein powder and used Almond Milk (as I have found I am now lactose intolerant) and a splash of Vanilla Premier protein shake and sprinkled some cinnamon on top. I could only eat a few bites but it was oh so good! Phase Three is two weeks long. Then I graduate to Phase Four - Soft Foods.

I am going to wait a week to weigh myself. I have a feeling I have hit the dreaded "3 week stall".

Happy Monday!!

Congrats on the anniversary, and moving on to the next phase! It's funny how things that used to taste really bland to me, after surgery tasted glorious, even when they were plain!

Happy anniversary! Glad you are enjoying the small victories.

You should try the Think Thin Berry Crumble oatmeal. It is high in protein and delicious!! Also, if you've become lactose intolerant I highly recommend the Fa!rlife milk. It is also higher in protein and lactose free. It also has a longer shelf life in the fridge. I love it.

I will look for the Think Thin Blueberry Crumble and the Fairlife milk. Thank you!
