Hi there,

I get boneless skinless chicken thighs as they fall apart nicely and can be made into a lot of yummy dishes, but any kind of chicken can be used. Here's how I often cook: heat up a pan until it's really hot, add a little high-heat oil and brown the chicken well on both sides. Take it out and set aside for a minute (note it is not cooked yet, just browned) and use the pan to sauté whatever veggies you like. We cook with a lot of garlic, sometimes leeks are nice, ginger root if we're going Asian, etc. Be creative. Then add the chicken back in and cover with chicken stock. Instead of the stock (or in addition to it) you can add a can of coconut milk if you'd like to have a delicious ginger coconut chicken dish, or add in a jar of peanut sauce, etc. White wine and herbs, a little butter. You get the idea. We are not eating very much of anything so why not make it delicious? Sometimes I do a curry. Simply add the curry spices at the time you are sauteing the veggies (curry likes a lot of onions, etc., and carrots are yummy, leeks -- whatever you like -- for those who eat potatoes cube or slice them small and add them as well). Frozen peas work well. If you like a red sauce just open up a jar or two and cover the chicken with that. The key is to let it all simmer for a couple of hours until the chicken is really falling apart. We call our pot the Magic Blue Pot because whatever we cook in it is absolutely delicious. My family has the chicken on top of rice and I have my little bowl of just the chicken and sauce. Life is short; I want sauce.

I get thighs and put them in the crock pot Sprinkle with a packet of dry ranch and pour a jar of herdez green salsa over it. Cook for about 6 hours on low. Yum!

      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.
