Spaghetti And Meatballs



Recommended Posts

I used "miracle noodles" which have the same nutrition facts as Water (I swear it tastes and has the exact same texture as real noodles, really is a miracle) with Tomato sauce (9 carbs and 5g of sugar and 2g of Protein for a 1/2 cup) and parmesan cheese and mushrooms and green Beans and meatballs and I am in shock how it tastes exactly like spaghetti and meatballs I had pre-op. The amount it came out to be will feed me for a week and it has so much protein-y goodness because of the meatballs (I put in a lot.) So happy!!!

I swear it tastes way better than it looks lol. It's delicious. You probably can't see the noodles because they're kind of transparent/white and are covered with parmesan. (aka more Protein :])

Prob around 12oz of sauce

Maybe 4oz of parmesan

Handful of mushrooms chopped up

Handful of canned green Beans chopped up

Here in MA, I've found them at Roche Bros. and Shaw's, and I think Trader Joes has them too. Look in the tofu section.

I suppose these are ok if you just HAVE to have a pasta-like product. But they have no nutritional content in and of them selves, and they are highly processed, so I don't eat them (I've tried them). I prefer to use "zoodles" quickly sauteed in EVO, garlic, and basil. Yummy AND gives you the phyto nutrients gleaned from eating a real & whole food> I'm such a health/whole food geek now...I' m convinced that this is part of my successful weight loss, though...

      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!
