chipotle bowls are one of my favorites, never bother the tummy and they don't mind loading on the Beans instead of rice. Nummy nummy!!

Went to Morton's of Chicago last night. Unfortunately, no steak (well...1 small delicious bite of hubby's :-)) but had a delicious jumbo lump crab cake that was all crab and no filler. Most importantly I had an amazing date with my hubby for the first time in a while.

Made the mistake of making oatmeal raisin Cookies tonight for someone at work. I've had two and they're huge. I love to bake but I don't seem to have the willpower to say no.

My husband printed some higher Protein recipes off his bodybuilding website and we tried one tonight. It was delicious! :-)

Spicy Turkey Chili

5 oz extra lean ground turkey

3/4 cup black Beans

1/2 cup corn

1 packet McCormick's Chili seasoning

1/3 cup Tomato paste

1/3 cup diced tomatoes

1/4 cup chopped fresh basil

Seasonings to taste: 1/2 tbsp paprika, cumin, cayenne, pepper

Optional: cheese - goat, feta, or low fat mozzarella

Optional: diced jalapeños

1. Season turkey with seasonings

2. Spray a skillet w/cooking spray; add meat and cook over medium heat.

3. Cook meat till nearly 80% done, add chili seasoning and tomato paste; stir.

4. Add black beans (undrained), corn, basil, diced tomatoes, (and jalapeños if desired).

5. Reduce heat and cover; simmer 8-10 mins.

Serve w/cheese if desired.

Recipe is for one man-size serving. I tripled it so my husband could take some to work this week. I also separated some out for myself before adding the corn (my nutritionist warned me to avoid it). It was very tasty!!! :-)

I dont know why but i just cant eat black Beans. I love brown beans (pinto) i have only had black beans once and they were supposed to be cooked in a burrito and were hard. And tasteless. This was years ago.

My husband loves the black beans from el pollo loco they r BBQ black beans, everytime he goes there he gets that and the veggies. Just gotta try them again. Sometimes the first experience with something is not the best.

      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.
