Im not sure if i mentioned this before but if i didnt i have been remise.

2 words- Savory oatmeal

Look up the recipes!!! Seriously its way healthy and a great quick meal you can cook at the beginning of the week. Oatmeal is no longer just for Breakfast.< /p>

here is the one i have done twice and been very very hapy with

Irish steel cut oatmeal

onions

whole cut mushrooms

soy based bacon bits

olive oil

low sodium soy

sage

rosemary

garlic

salt to taste ( least bit possible)

pepper

Cook oatmeal seperate and use a butt load of onions and mushrooms saute the mess together and add to oatmeal as the last step.

You can cut up chicken fish or turkey into it. i like mine cold but you can work out the serving temp on your own

Look up other recipies they are wide and vast. next week im doing an asian oatmeal and following that a middle eastern one.

low cal, low fat,full of fiber and filling..with chicken or fish you get the added protien

Peace out skinny people

Sounds GREAT! I have found Textured Vegetable Protein (TVP) by Bob's Red Mill. I use it instead of oatmeal. You get the fiber AND the protein. I use 1/3 cup in one cup of Water and boil it down, takes about 10 minutes. I add 1/4 of skim milk and it has 19 grams of protein. I like to add some splenda sweetened vanilla Syrup and cinnamon. But you could definitely use it for what you are making. I have been thinking fresh berries would also be good, but haven't tried it yet.

Thanks for sharing the recipe. I am always looking for something different!

      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.
