Spaghetti squash and two shrimp. I'm so excited about the thought of some 'pasta'. I put 1/2 cup squash in my bowl and after 3 bites I'm full. This stuff is awesome!!

I've always wanted to make Spaghetti Squash. How do you make it?

Preheat oven to 375°. Cut the squash in half length wise and scoop out all the seeds. Lay both halves face down on cookie sheet. Bake in preheated oven for 30-40 mins. When done use a fork to separate the strands, then scoop into a bowl.

You can serve it several ways. I like it w/a little butter, salt, and pepper, or w/grilled veggies, or w/pesto, or w/ground turkey, sauce, and Parmesan chz. I haven't had it since surgery. I'm nervous to try it.

This way, or you can microwave each half for 8-9 minutes then shred it. I had mine with a little butter and some Parmesan cheese. It was delish!!

I can't get enough salsa the past few days. I found nut chips at Walmart. They are made from almonds and brown rice and are so good with my salsa. I had 10 chips and lots of salsa with them and then some fit n lite Greek yogurt.

I made shepherd's pie for the fam for dinner tonight. While I was cooking I had a couple spoons of mashed potatoes and a small piece of Colby cheese leftover from grating. Later on in the evening I shared a wedge of laughing Cow cheese with the hubby!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
