cooking in the oven or if I am lazy, I will nuke something or make a

sandwich with 3 slices of lunchmeat, a couple of pieces of cheese and

lots of REAL mayo. If I am out, hey... there are oodles of bacon

double cheeseburgers out there screaming my name. After lunch, there

is popcorn and chips and candy bars that can ease my hunger. For

dinner... you name it and I'll eat it. Generally, 5-6 oz of meat,

steak, pork chops, fish, chicken, brisket, burgers,...whatever

(sometimes pizza or baby back ribs), pasta or potatoes, corn, mixed

veggies, salads with real dressing and bacon bits... whew.... I love to

eat!!!>

God, I can't believe that you are able to eat that much. I am pre-op and

can't eat nearly that much. Breakfast for me would be a bowl of cereal or

maybe 2 pieces of bacon and one egg. lunch is usually 1/2 a sandwich and

some chips. No snacks in b/w meals. Supper is my biggest meal, but that is

because it is the meal where we sit together as a family. It is usually 6-8

oz. of meat, 1 cup of rice, potatoes, etc. and then stirfry vegetables or

grilled vegetables or a salad or something. And I can still gain 9 lbs. a

year. I am just floored that you can eat that well and not gain. Actually

that someone could even eat like they did pre-op.
