I just whipped up a batch of spicy chicken chili using my authentic spices I bought in California. Ground chicken, chili spices, Tomato paste, diced tomatoes, black Beans, corn, salsa, and brown rice. Sometimes I mix in a little refried beans, too. Yummy! :-)

left over salmon with some teriyaki sauce, quinoa and spinach. It'll be my first time with quinoa, so I'm hoping its good!

I wasn't thrilled w/quinoa alone so I mix it with brown rice. You can make a nice quinoa/brown rice salad by adding chopped nuts, dried cranberries, chopped red onion, parsley, and a little lite or fat free dressing of your choice. I like Cesar, Italian, or balsamic vinaigrette. :-)

I loved it! But, I'm kind of a bland eater. I sautéed some spinach and garlic together and threw it into the mix. It was pretty tasty.

That sounds so good. Wish I'd been at your house for dinner!

For Breakfast I've been eating 1 scrambled egg with green onion and a little cheese and one piece of bacon. Occasionally I'll eat one piece of low carb toast with it (no butter).

One of my favorite dinners is this crock pot teriyaki chicken on top of some quinoa. Yummy and pretty high in Protein.< /p>

One of my fast food choices now is the chopped salads from Subway. I've tried a few different kinds (always with spinach and not lettuce) and they're all pretty good and the best part is that one salad lasts for 3-4 meals.

I honestly didn't think I could have any bread, but then my NUT told me that I could have breads and such as long as they are high in Fiber. In fact, on the Snacks list that she sent the suggestions are 1/2 cup of quinoa, 1 slice of whole grain bread, a corn tortilla and a Flat Out (light) wrap. Let me tell you, that piece of toast was SO good.

Ricotta Bake with lean ground turkey added to the marinara sauce. First time to make it, so quick and easy. And Yummy! I separated it into 4 oz ramekins before I baked it so I have individual servings. My husband tasted mine, and asked when I was going to make a regular sized one for the family. I had worried about having to cook two different meals, but I think my family might just end up eating the same as I do except bigger portions.

That ricotta bake is GOOD! The first time I made a batch for myself (intending it to be more than a few meals for myself), my husband tried it and ate the whole batch! Lol

Yum, that dish looks tasty! I had some vegetable lentil Soup from trader joes, added in some tuna and Tabasco for a kick.

      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.
