Shape_Shifter 83 Posted July 10, 2012 I'm probably posting in the wrong spot but I shot for the "mexico" angle. Many sleevers have said that the broth they got in Mexico was the best. I'm trying to stock up on things I would need for post-surgery since I work 2 jobs and will not have time to shop when I return. Does anybody have a recipe for this magical mexican broth?

Ms skinniness 3,003 Posted July 11, 2012 Is it abondigas Soup? I love this stuff! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shape_Shifter 83 Posted July 11, 2012 Dorrie, I see I have similar stats to you before surgery. May I ask how much weight you lost in the first 90 days? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ms skinniness 3,003 Posted July 11, 2012 I lost about 50 lbs in the first 3 months. After the 5th month, my weight loss really slowed down. I was getting close to goal. Still am working on losing a couple of lbs still. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shape_Shifter 83 Posted July 11, 2012 You look great! I would love to loose 50 lbs. in 3 months. Did you exercise alot? My problem with exercise, as usual, is time. I'm going to try to squeeze in the 30 minute walk daily or atleast the 5 flights of steps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ms skinniness 3,003 Posted July 11, 2012 I was really bad about exercise. I would park further in parking lots and I did go to the gym a few times. I really wish I would have exercised for at least 30 minutes a day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Finding Myself 146 Posted July 11, 2012 If you guys are talking about the broth at Case de Mole (I think that was the name) it was pretty simple, and I think that what made it good was 1.) we were all starving pre op (LOL) and 2.) we were happy to finally eat post op. LOLOL Seriously though, it had rice and cilantro in it and I think that gave it a little extra flavor. (we couldn't eat the solids, though) I'm sure it was a home made chicken stock with those goodies in it. We also had some broth at another restaurant (Omar said they order it as "sick soup" for VSG patients haha!) that was filled with fresh vegetables and fish. It was terrific as well.

made2beme 119 Posted July 11, 2012 Yeah, I am trying to get the whole broth thing straight too, lol! I have heard some go out to eat, but also heard some hotel has the best....dont know if it was the Marriot or the other hotel I hear a lot about? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cissiesue 119 Posted July 11, 2012 The broth at the hotel (lucerna) was just bullion cubes. Nothing special. However, the broth ay Cada de Mole was delicious! I agree with Finding Myself, about the pre and post op comment, but the flavor, no matter how simple, was amazing! And the fresh cilantro gave it a tiny crunch that was very refreshing since, for some of us had been on a purely liquid diet for over two weeks. Id give my big toe for some of that broth right now! 2 goofycathy and kmwheel reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
