First night of "soft protein" real food Quickie Crab Cakes Mmmmmmm!



Recommended Posts

Ok folks made this for dinner tonight and the non bypass side of the family inhaled them!!!! Very very easy for me to eat tonight as well.

I have included ballpark nutritional information I added up after the fact. Start to finish took about 5-10 minutes!!!

Quick Crab Cakes (Makes 4 servings)

1 can of crab meat in Water 4oz

3/4 cup seasoned bread crumbs

1/2 cup of finely minced onion

2 Tablespoons of Green Onion Minced

1 egg

1/2 tsp of Seasoning Salt

1/2 tsp of Garlic powder

1 tsp of black pepper(little less if you don't want them spicy)

2 Tablespoons of Butter (held)

Open can of crab meat and drain water, food process onion together to fine mince and drain water.

In a medium bowl combine all ingredients (EXCEPT BUTTER). Form into 4 patties.

Melt butter in frying pan and place patties in pan over medium to medium high heat. Fry on each side about 3-5 minutes until desired color. (I did mine on the softer side for obvious reasons, and made the rest for the family a little crispier)

Approximate nutrition information per serving: (I only counted have of the butter in nutrition information as there was about half of butter left in pan.)

Talk about a nice break from Protein shakes, and pureed stuff!

This is my recipe I developed tonight on the fly. I was quite impressed with myself if I do say so.

      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.

      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.
