Holy Restriction!



Recommended Posts

Me too! I used to eat nothing but chicken breast and now I'm so afraid to try it plain. I can so it when it's mixed and shredded with the dark meat from the crockpot, but nol I get on it's own.

Me too! Lived off the breast meat. Today I had HALF an ounce of it and it came right back up. Finally realized that both times I've barfed and any time I've had the slimes have been because of breast meat.

It will take me a while to get used to the thigh and leg. I'd rather have a soy burger than both of those.

I guess its a good thing that I like dark meat. But I like to buy the Tyson fully cooked chicken and that's usually breast meat. I guess I'll have to see if they make thigh meat.
So I found some Tyson fully cooked sweet Asian Chicken Thighs. They were pretty tender and moist. Needed a little flavor, but they were good, I think, I may stick to these and feed the chicken breasts to my husband and kids.

I like shredded chicken breast with low-calorie sauces like barbecue sauce or low-fat gravy or "finishing sauce" which you can get premade in foil packets in the baking aisle. You really aren't having much of it so you don't really need to worry as much about the calories. Also fattier meat works better. I have found that lamb chops work well if cooked on the BBQ and cut into really small bites. One lamb chop does me! It is all about the texture and moisture for me.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
