Indian tonight!



Recommended Posts

Coconut red lentil curry, tandoori chicken with cucumber cilantro raita and mango chutney....yumm- lots of flavor! Love Trader Joe's mango chutney- only 7 carbs per Tbsp, versus most at 20g carbs per Tbsp!

I'll send you my cell so next time you can invite me :) Looks yummy! Did you make it all?

My husband made chicken biryani tonight for my dad who is visiting. Pre-op that was my fav dish but we can't eat the rice and the chicken by itself is dry. I think I shed a tear as I watched my husband throw away the rest of the rice :(

If you're in the Seattle area, come on over! :) I made all of it except the tandoori chicken- that I bought from costco all prepared, boneless chicken breasts, very moist and so delish! It only takes 3 1/2 min in the microwave for the whole thing and 2 oz gives you 11g Protein. It's Sukhi's authentic Indian cuisine if anyone is looking for it. I love chicken biryani as well- Indian food is one of my comfort foods. Strange since I didn't really have it until college- but a good chicken tikka masala makes my toes curl with pleasure! Cooking Biryani for your dad...are you of Indian descent or just love the food like me? :)

I've found that once in costco and could never find it again. Loved it! I was born in India and moved here when I was 20. :)

I thought I'd be giving up the pleasure of Indian food post-sleeve, in fact, it was my last food funeral meal before my pre-op diet.

Glad to see that isn't true! Are you able to handle spicy (hot) food still? It's my faaaaave!

how long did you have to wait to eat Indian food, especially spicy Indian food? I'm 23 days post op.

I'm indian so of course, I didn't wait at all. I ate it as soon as I could eat and had NO trouble. Nor did my husband who is white and used to eating Indian food. I will say that he is having a little trouble if it is very spicy, but most Indian food in this county is not that spicy anyway :P

i suggest if it sounds good, have it.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
