Eggface rocks. I keep trying to steer the newbees over to her site. I starting reading her blog pre-op. She's the one that made me realize that I could still be a foodie and lose the weight. I got the Hamilton Beach soft serve maker. All last summer I made multiple varieties of the Protein ice cream. It really works and it is ever GOOD!

She is of the super strict crowd. She doesn't even eat crackers and uses cucumber slices in lieu of. No Pasta either. She shreds or slices zucchini. She even makes protein muffins' date=' protein donuts and is a wiz with leftovers. She even has a cheeseburger meatloaf recipe in keeping with the topic.

Every time I see a post about people hating Protein Shakes, I want to force them to make hers. I actually look forward to them and still drink them.

BTW, The Hamilton Beach one was about 30. It comes in retro colors too.[/quote']

I love Eggface's site, but bought her recommended brand of protein and HATED it... Different strokes, I guess... I am sick of protein shakes and have to gag them down... I try to get as much protein as I can from food...

Sometimes my kids get pissy about ground turkey I don't know why because it all we ever buy ( yet I still got fat) so I buy Liptons onion Soup mix and an egg and add it to a pound of turkey. Worst part about it is mixing with your hands yuck! :P

I wear surgical gloves to mix ground meat for burgers or meatloaf...

Ok so all this talk of cheeseburgers has got me craving one. So tonights dinner is Jenny O turkey burgers, 200 cal, 16 grams of Protein, 2% american cheese, 45 cal, 4 grams of protein, hamburger bun, 120 cal, 4 grams of protein. I can only eat 1/2 for a total of 183 cal, 12 grams of protein. Probably too many carbs but overall not bad.

chicken burgers with finely chopped onion and red/green peppers mixed in are delicious. I eat it with no bun and dip it in hummus or Greek taziki (sp) sauce.

I agree that this thread is a good read.

If u do indulge in a burger try a veggie burger ... If that doesn't cut it.. Make homemade thin sliders with lean meat and on a healthy bread.. Try trader joes or whole foods.. And I hope you enjoy it .. And let me know how it goes :) and when in doubt consult with your surgeon.. fudge these hypocritical haters on here

      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.
