Beef jerkey and turkey jerkey- I eat that a lot. Deli ham or turkey rolls- with cheese. I do those a lot for a quick snack or even lunch. And diet hot cocoa with Torini SF Syrup. You get Protein from the milk and its YUMMY!

Anything i want. Love the little cheesecake bites from target. One and I'm done not worried about calories or sugar or stuff as its my only sweet treat for the day so why suffer with sugar free tasteless stuff. I'm still losing weight 4 months out and have 30 more pds to hit goal.

At 7 months out and 107 lbs down my favorite snack is the Jif to go reduced fat packs with peeled sliced apples that are pre packaged in the fruit section at Wal Mart, convenient and tasty!

Ok, hope I'm not stepping on any toes...like I said this is NOT my recipe....someone else posted it here...I just can't find it here now...here goes:

Protein balls

1 cup old fashioned oats

1 1/2 cups Protein Powder (I used chocolate)

1 cup Peanut Butter (I used crunchy Skippy)

Handful of dried fruit (I used cranberries)

Dash of SF Torani Syrup (to taste)

Splenda (I used 3 packets)

Mix the glob together with a little Water until you get a consistency to roll into balls. Roll into balls a little smaller than golf balls and freeze. Take them out and defrost when you plan to eat. They're good frozen and defrosted.

Yum!

For a long time it was Jerky. Now I'm not so very into meat - especially since I got pregnant - and my very favorite snack right now is roasted chickpeas.

I do them with a sweeter blend of spices or I do them with paprika, garlic and onion. YUM.

Or hummus, with some homemade pita chips and an assortment of veggies.

I'm on a chickpea kick right now, and blame the pregnancy. It's a far better craving than the chicken nuggets (gag!) I wanted with my twins. :)

      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.

      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.
