Shrimp! Who Would Have Thought!



Recommended Posts

Man! If you like seafood this is an awesome way to get your Protein quota outta the way!!!! I buy a bag of frozen shrimp at costco - 7 SHRIMP = 18g of PROTEIN and 100 calories! This is going to save my life cuz I am sick of those protein shakes! Granted I still have to do a Protein Shake but now I can cut one out of the day! YIPEEE. Just thought I'd share my excitement! :-) :-D :-P

Bubba: Anyway, like I was sayin', shrimp is the fruit of the sea. You can barbecue it, boil it, broil it, bake it, saute it. There's uh, shrimp-kabobs, shrimp creole, shrimp gumbo. Pan fried, deep fried, stir-fried. There's pineapple shrimp, lemon shrimp, coconut shrimp, pepper shrimp, shrimp Soup, shrimp stew, shrimp salad, shrimp and potatoes, shrimp burger, shrimp sandwich, and bariatric shrimp. That- that's about it.

Oh man, man, maynard! I am feeling you brother! :-)

Yes Shrimp is the best... I made an omelet with shrimp for dinner the other night after a very intense work out.. one egg and about 4 shrimp.. couldn't eat it all but it was so good... I was worried that shrimp wouldn't agree with me after surgery because I heard a lot of people can't.. but thankfully I can still eat it..

Since I am not a real fish eater, but have always loved shrimp, I now eat it constantly! Like Bubba gump said you can prepare it so many ways and never get tired of it. I am still trying to find some different ways.

Sounds great! Can you share your recipe for your ceviche since it is the best?

I am writing from the airport in Santiago Chile. I have been pounding down ceviche all week. It is perfect sleeve food. I even had enough carbs left over to have a beer.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
