Freezer meals

I figured since I wouldn't be eating regular meals with my family for at least 6 weeks (probably longer), and I am the one who cooks supper almost every night, I should probably prepare some freezer meals for my husband and the girls.  I did a lot of research and spent a good chunk of money to prepare some tasty stuff for them.  I only remembered to take pictures of some of them

Philly Cheesesteak casserole

Pepperoni pizza casserole

Baked spaghetti, Baked ziti, Adult tuna noodle casserole

Taco casserole

Not pictured:

  • Turkey and swiss on Hawaiian rolls
  • Chicken spaghetti
  • Ham and cheese potato bake

Things I am still considering making

  • Alfredo
  • Buffalo chicken wontons

Each of these meals will AT LEAST cover 2 days but will probably do 3 or more.  I also got him frozen lasagna, hamburger helper, fish sticks, frozen pizza, and chicken patties.  I made sure there was cereal, pop tarts, romen noodles, mac and cheese, and spaghettios in the house so that all of Gracie's favorites were here and lunches were easy for Josh also.  No, this is not a healthy post and all this food is SHIT but my only goals here were to make sure they had something to eat and that is was easy on him....SUCCESS...I think.  If he can follow the directions on the outside of my frozen meals and remember to thaw each meal, it should be easy.

3 months + 2 days

I GOT A SURGERY DATE!  December 27, 2018 at 8am I will be having VSG ( Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy).  SO, on December 6th, I have to get labs, chest X-ray, and an EKG to ensure I am in top notch health.  I also get to talk to the doctor that day just to go over everything for like the 3rd time and I say that in the best way possible.  Nothing makes me feel better than getting as much one on one time with the man who will be doing the surgery and making sure all my questions are answered.  THEN, I have to be at the hospital at 6am on the 27th and the surgery will begin at 8am; it will last around one hour.  I have to stay in the hospital that night and then I should be able to break out the next day.  I can't drive for one week and I can't lift over 10 pounds for two weeks........EVIE!!! :(  I CANNOT wait to be blessed with this tool that will not only HELP me shed the rest of my weight but HELP me keep it off.  I still have to ...

17 days post op

Happy New Year everybody! :). I can see now that these blog post that once were days apart are probably going to be weeks apart due to my YouTube being up and running. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYkL_ZZWuw7kEq4N-IWQ4zw?view_as=subscriber Sorry but sometimes speaking is just easier than writing but I will do my best of keeping up both!  So I am almost 3 weeks out.  Getting into the fluids is getting easier, especially when I add protein powder to food and I don't have to worry about drinking the protein shakes.  Everything is slow for now, eating, drinking, walking....all slow :). It is the process though so slow we shall go!  I started a cup of coffee around 8:45 and finally finished it at 10:15.  Then I wait 30 minutes to eat.  So at 10:45 I made an egg with cheese and am slowly working on eating it.  I am not hungry....that kind of goes away with surgery so its about making yourself eat for nutritional value.  It's hard to keep eating w...
