Ethiopian?



Recommended Posts

I LOVE Ethiopian, including injeera.... I was just sleeved on monday - any other ethiopian lovers out there? What are my chances of ever having ethiopian again?

High I think. I made doro wat the other day. The veggies and lentils should all work as should the meat. Surprisingly the injera doesn't have that many carbs/calories in it. At least in the quantities that we could eat. My husband makes the best injera but I think we will be eating one fourth of one! I think the bigger issue is how could you order little enough? It may be easier to learn to make it, unless your family has non-ops who also love it. My husband and I are both sleeved so I don't think we could even eat one order between us!

But we too love it and have learned how to make it. Yum!

Had Ethiopian for the first time this past Saturday - OH EM GEE!! :lol:

I imagine it will be awhile until you're able to have it again as some of it has a bite to it.

Yup! On my blog! One for Berbere which is to Ethiopian food as garam masala is to Indian. And then doro wat which uses said Berbere. I will post some dal ones and a cabbage one when I get back home and have time to make them. Super yummy.

Traditionally served over a very fidgety bread made with teff flour that requires you to start with a sourdough starter, but in our case, zucchini noodles may have to suffice.

      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'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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!
