I can tolerate some mashed potatoes, but only a tablespoon or so.. certainly not worth taking the time or trouble to make it.

I think they do that just because it's easy food that goes down without a hitch. In the beginning they just want you to get calories in. But it just doesn't seem like a good idea to me. And those dieticians aren't the ones that will have to live with any weight regain I experience due to bad food choices. I just cut it out right away to save me any problems later down the road.

Goal! I did it!
104 pounds gone since my RNY

I finally have a "normal" BMI
Reached my first goal of 145...and setting a new one of 135.
Reached 135 and have decided to lose another five if I can.
I'm in the 130's for the first time since puberty!
