Hello bandsters! I have just found the most amazing NEW lean pocket, it is a pretzel bread filled with spinach and 3 cheeses like a hot pocket, it is amazing and barely any calories! i just had to share this for anyone that is still able to eat breads, then I started wondering what might be some of your OMG foods that has made your journey more easier........

My top 3 are:

  • Lean Pockets spinach & 3 cheese.< br />
  • Southbeach whipped Peanut Butter protien bar (OMG).
  • Pregreso enchilada Soup (I add more chicken)

What are yours?

This is a good topic, I like new ideas! The things that keep me going are- Bush's seasoned recipe black Beans, old el paso refried Beans, and rotisserie chickens! I mix either kind of beans with 3 oz of chicken, very filling, moist and easy!!

I'm definitely going to try that enchilada soup!!

I have been on a salad kick. Like tuna salad, ham salad, chicken salad and egg salad. I just made some egg salad with cottage cheese mixed in with a bit of bacon bits and a little shredded low fat cheese added. It was very filling and was 15 Protein grams for my serving. Yum.

I love the Jimmy Dean turkey sausage crumbles. I add about 1/8th of a cup to my scrambled egg with some cheese. This is my Breakfast most mornings. adds a little more Protein to my egg, and a ton of flavor.

Also, I cannot live without my Mio Sweet Tea flavoring.

transforming jlaroux, How could I forget the MIO sweet tea, I agree! I have a very hard time with Water and can not stand the sugar substitutes after taste....but for some reason the MIO is different plus my doc said i get to count it towards my water intake.

btw transforming jlaroux congrats on your weight loss you are doing an amazing job! and your before and after pics are GREAT! keep up the hard work.

Foods that really help me...

Frigo Light Cheeseheads Swirls string cheese...Only 60 cal and 8 grams Protein. I have 2 a day, one each in the morning and afternoon.

Morningstar Farms Veggie Crumbles

Birdseye Broccoli Florets Steamer Bag...It's plain broccoli that you microwave in the bag. It is quick and easy and I always have on hand for when I feel lazy about cooking. Even the one with sauce is low cal.

Sounds like me. Seems that is my comfort food, along with either crackers or sliced cucumbers.

Our local Deli sees me coming! I'm too lazy to make my own.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
