Our dinner. Taco meat, black Beans, rotel, onions, cilantro, cheese baked together. Served on cucumber slices with Greek yogurt. Yummy! I had that plus another ounce of the taco mix. Tummy is comfortably full and happy.

From my garden tonight! This is actually my husbands portion, mine was about 1/3 this size and had no potatoes.

Broiled flank steak marinated in balsamic vinegar & garlic. Snow peas sautéed in olive oil with green onions, garlic and ginger. Oven roasted root vegetables.

All of that looks so delicious! Nicely done

I take a short cut and used a prepared one and add to it...I use 1tbsp Wegmans Thai Peanut Sauce, 1tsp Reduced Sodium Soy, couple shakes of hot sauce and a touch of rice wine vinegar, I don't finish all of it but it's only 20cals. Not bad to me!

I'm gonna try to post the bariatric pal recipe I created so you can see the stats, I usually eat abt half maybe 3/4 of the sauce tho I could drink it, it's that yummy! Also I forgot I add sesame oil too but just a tiny bit bc it's powerful!

      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.
