I haven't been weighing it out. I did buy a measuring cup to measure out 1/2 a cup. I am hoping once I start dense protein I won't be so hungry all the time and I can keep my calories low. Sent from my SM-G900V using BariatricPal mobile app
if you stick to your program, it'll break. Plus at 228, you're pretty light for a weight loss surgery patient, so it's not going to come off as it would for someone who starts at over 300 lbs. But hang in there - it *will* break...
Crackers and toast are empty carbs, so be careful with them. I try to limit my "crunchy stuff" to raw veggies, parmesan crisps, nuts, pork rinds, etc. Most of those are for later on, after the soft foods stage, though. Hang in there!
Congratulations on your weight loss. The secret to chicken is to make it soft. This can be done by placing a chicken breast in a pot of water and adding a couple bouillion cubes and slow cooking it for several hours until it easily breaks apart with a fork. A crock-pot (slow cooker) will also work.
