Tonight was an awesome one! Mushroom burger with melted blue cheese on a bed of asparagus & carrot slaw! Tomorrow's dinner is black bean spaghetti with goat cheese sauce, spinach and oyster mushrooms! I love tiny gourmet vegetarian meals! Anybody have any sleeve friendly gourmet meals?

Not vegan but vegetarian for sure. My man is a chef so there is always an abundance of amazing ingredients happening. All I have to do is put them together!

Ok. Here is a good one. He mixed grilled avocado, cilantro, lime juice, salt and nonfat plain Greek yogurt into a tasty sauce/dip. He made a mini pizza on flax Lavash bread with ricotta, mozz, peppers, mushrooms, soy chorizo and the sauce. Amazing. I use the sauce on my one egg cheddar omelet and it becomes a gourmet dish. I use it on veggie patties topped with goat cheese. Incredible sauce.

Lavash is a wonderful middle eastern flat bread. Sami's bakery (online or health food store) makes a spinach/flax/millet Lavash that is low in carbs and just the right size. Savory, delicious and perfectly textured for pizza or sandwich bun.

Thanks! I'm not a chef but this sounds like something I would put together. The carb content is fairly low. thanks for the tip. I like the taste of a little feta with greek yogurt....yummers.

      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.
