Recommended Posts

My husband keeps telling me the same thing. I just really' date=' really love to cook. And if I can only eat a few bites of something it had better taste delicious![/quote']

Your husband is right. I grew up in the south and I can cook. I used to sell dinners to make ends meet when I was a single mom. I learn to cook soul food which isn't always healthy. Ive used alot of your recipes and my family even enjoy them. And it's hard to get them to step out the box. Please keep sharing.

Tonight it's garlic Parmesan chicken. This same recipe is fantastic on tilapia. I layer a seasoned chicken breast on sliced onions. Top with a scant TB of my garlic aioli and sprinkle a tsp of lowfat Parmesan on top. Roast at 400 until chicken is done.

Garlic aioli

3/4 good quality lowfat mayo

3 cloves fresh garlic, grated

1 Tb fresh lemon juice

Lots of fresh pepper and a pinch of Kosher salt.

Mix together and let sit at least a half hour. Great on everything lol.

Also having green Beans sautéed with garlic and almonds. We love garlic.

Mmmmmm tonight is night #1 of water! I am seriously excited! No more just chewing ice and spitting it out! I still have my TPN - nutritional needs. Hoping tomorrow I can move up to apple juice made 50/50 with water! By the weekend I should be back on cream Soups & Protein drinks!

Last night I had Knorr Noodles with Alfredo Sauce and I added Perdue Italian Grilled chicken breast. I had half a cup. It was delicious!

Tonight I had one Ball Park Hamburger patty and a small portion of guacamole.

I had a boca veggie chicken patty and a couple French fries. I feel myself being able to eat more and it scares me. My surgery was on 10/31. Today for lunch had a steak soft taco. Was able to eat the whole thing. Minus lettuce. I hope I'm not over doing it. I know it's not nearly what I used to eat though.

        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!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
