Husband wanted nachos for the basketball games (Go 'Cuse!) so I made "nacho dip." But, lets be honest, it's really just my go to taco filling (see recipe below) topped with cheese and FF sour cream that you can dunk tortilla chips into.

I usually make my own tortilla chips out of the low carb tortilla wraps, but didn't have any on hand today so we use the bite size tostitos. The serving size is 24 chips but I only had about half that. I like to eat the filling with a spoon hahah.

Taco Filling:

1 lb ground turkey

1 small onion (1/2 medium)

1 can FF refried Beans

1/2 can enchilada sauce

1 pkt taco seasoning

1 can green chiles

1/2 cup shredded cheese (I like the Mexican blend)

Sauté onions until translucent. Add turkey until brown. Mix taco season as directed and add to turkey mix. Add all other ingredients one at a time, stirring. Top with salsa, cheese, whatever you like. Voila!

I had chicken gumbo from qdoba! Amazing.

Light black Beans, very little brown rice, poco, cheese and sour cream. I ate maybe a fifth of it! Lots of protein!

I was looking at their menu the other day and was wondering how the gumbo was. Thanks for the endorsement!

I made the fam biscuits and gravy. We get whole fresh cows milk (unpasteurized) and paired with the sausage it was yum. I had about 1/3 c of gravy. It's snowing here in KS and I was wanting comfort food. I love how these tiny servings hit the spot and are satisfying!

At a cancer benefit tonight, so not much to choose from. Had about 1/3 of a piece of baked stuffed sole and a couple of soft baby carrots.

My nutritionist told me that salad is the #1 thing people can't wait to try again after surgery. I bet it has to do with the crunch factor. I've had a salad twice now and they were both kind of disappointing. I'm thinking the mixed greens may not agree with me.

Did it make you sick? How far out are you?

      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?
