Time Creaping up on me

Hello Ladies,I am so glad you are here.My Emotions are in good shape so far.I am trying to get so much done But it seems the more i do the more i find to do.Can anyone tell me what is a good idea for my family(1 husband,2 children)Can fix to eat thats quick and easy?Also were any of you on a special diet when you came home?I reckon because I live in a remote place I want to be prepared for everything.Surgery is June 6 05.Thanks again for all you do.VA

Hello,
Not sure what all you are having done but I stayed with bland food when I got out because I did not want to get swelly belly. It worked. Other then being gassy from the surgery I had no problems. Drink lots of water and stay away from carbonated drinks.
As for food for the DH and kids. Frozen Lasagna, premade hamburger patties and chips or french fries, lunch meat. If he likes to cook out now would be time to stock up on the grilling food. Plus less mess in the kitchen. Most men will find food when they get hungary enough. HA.
I will tell you, you will never have everything done so don't stress out trying to.

good luck

vacpl4christ - we are same day sisters! I have added you to my list.

I'm thinking of doing some basics to put in the freezer- pasta with meatballs, chicken casserole with egg noodles, beef tips with rice/gravy etc. Nothing fancy and if I don't get to it, oh well!

Dh has pointed out more than once that he is completely capable of picking up CHinese food. lol If I DO get motivated to make meals, I'm only going to do 3 or 4.

My aunt will be here on the 12th, so she will help out at thatpoint. And the night when DH is home early enough, I know he will cook - he's actually pretty handy in the kitchen when he needs to be!

I guess the 6th of June is a busy day. We are going to become "new women" together. I have been waiting for this for a long time. As I read more and more I realize that I have been having symptoms of problems with my hyster for a long time. I will not miss it at all. Let's get this done!
