Do you have a Pinterest board dedicated to WLS friendly recipes? Let's share and follow! I have a board called "After WLS ideas". I think you can search for me by name: Cindy Braziel, or you can access it via this link: http://pinterest.com/butterflylegacy/after-wls-ideas/

Love your recipes....I just repinned a bunch. You can follow me on pinterest as Carly Gonzalez. I call the list "kick the carbs" since that is the idea and I haven't told all of my friends of friends about my decision for weight loss surgery.

Thanks for the ideas!

Before I became "addicted" to VST, I was "addicted" to Pinterest. I have tons of recipes, most low fat ones. They were not liked/pinned with the Protein content in mind since the majority of them were liked/pinned prior to any thoughts of WLS. I like the idea of having a board specifically for recipes that are more protein focused. However, I'm not out about my surgery to a lot of my followers so for now, I won't be doing that. I will however, put the recipes on my computer to refer to and use in the future.

I'm not "out" either. I just followed all of Cindy's boards and will reference the recipes as needed.

Y'all are all smarter than me! I .sd only shared with a select few what I was planning on doing. The. I created my pinterest board and inadvertently outed myself!! LOL it's been wonderful though. I've had a lot of support from everyone and only negativity from my mother.... (why are some mothers like this?!?!?!) anyway.... Thanks for following my boards and I've found a lot of interesting ideas on some of yours too!

Congrats and good luck to everyone! I'm off to go look at more food porn!!! (giggle)

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
