i am trying to make same choices...stairs of elevator...why will i go out walk in 20degree weather then take elevator ?

anyone a for kale chips? also would like recipes for quinoa...hoping it will be a good substitute for what i rice for.

Love Kale chips! I will be so excited when I am allowed to eat them again. I got a second dehydrator so double batches are in my future!

My feeling of fullness is sort of the same as it was pre-op--except it can happen a lot more quickly. One bite can make a big difference between being satisfied and feeling Thanksgiving-stuffed or actually uncomfortable. So I really try to follow my surgeon's recommendations on food volume, eat really slowly, and pay attention to my body. For example, I can eat 2.5 Morningstar meal starter vegetarian "meat"balls. If I eat 3, I am uncomfortable. (I give my dog half of one, and she is very happy!)

I've always 'dabbled' w vegetarian type food--- however id really like to 'embrace' it now---- I do gave a big fear of carbs - in the past the ONLY thing that worked for me was Atkins but very very low carb and cal--

Any ideas for me --- I've been researching it but now I'm overwhelmed and confused lol

I'd love ideas on how to go about - I've 'friended' fully raw and vegan and vegetarian type things on Facebook but I can't have anything like that yet-- I am 2 1/2 weeks preop-- thank you
