Another milestone

Another milestone. I am currently on a plane flying home from a work trip and for the first time in I don't know how long I did not need a seatbelt extension. Granted I am in first class so they might be a bit bigger here but still I've always needed one in first class too. Just really excited.

A Mystical weekend away


Well four weeks out today and still on soft foods I went away with the family for the weekend to Mystic, CT. Finding foods was challenging but not impossible. The first day for lunch we went to a restaurant where I had a turkey sandwich and just ate the turkey off of the sandwich. 
For dinner we went to a restaurant and I had a bit of salmon that looked like I barely touched it, since I was in a hotel I didnt take it home with me. The waitress asked me if everything was ok and I said it was great but I had surgery and am limited. 
Breakfast in the hotel I had some scrambled egg, for lunch I had a diner chicken salad sandwich that I picked off the chicken salad and had a side of cottage cheese which worked fine. 
Dinner was a bit of an issue in the fact that I didnt get to eat until about 8:30pm which is late. I meant to have a protein shake on the ferry but I forgot my backpack in the car and couldnt get back to it as I couldnt open my trunk of my SUV without hitting the car in back of me........ I did have plenty of water during the days and on the boat as well. Dinner was a diner tuna salad platter. 

I also got plenty of walking during both days. Oh and it was over 90 degrees with heavy humidity BOTH DAYS :)

Other than the high amounts of mayo (and bits of celery and onion), I think I did ok for the weekend.
