I made this recently and it was delish!

Zucchini Parmesan

Buy a few zucchini, wash, cut off ends and cut in half lengthwise.

Lay in 9x13, cut/flat side up. Lightly brush with olive oil. Sprinkle with crushed red pepper, sprinkle with a tablespoon or two of shredded parmesan.

Cook on 350 until parmesan is melted and golden brown.

I estimate that two pieces is about 180 calories and about 14g of Protein.

Yummy!

With the chilly weather Iove Soups. This is one of my favorites. I figure it to be about 325 calories and 21 grams of Protein for a 2 cup serving.

      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.
