Chia seeds

My friend (skinny bitch. Lol ) chews them. But they get into your teeth. Like a big piece of black peppercorn. Eww

I love them. I reminds me of tiny Bobos. If you soak them in a certain flavor they pick up the flavor

Hi ! I have a teaspoon of chia seeds every day. I put it in 8 ounces of light soy milk or skim milk with one scoop of any sweet flavor powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury Protein powder. I mix it up early in the morning and usually have it late in the afternoon. They swell a little, just enough to make the shake a little thick, which I enjoy. Yes, they are still hard, but down they go. On days I don't have a Protein Drink, I put the teaspoon in Fit & Lean Protein pudding. I still have Constipation issues, but it is greatly improved since I started adding the chia seeds about 6 weeks ago. I've never had any problem with swelling in my stomach - but then again I have never been nauseous, never vomited, never had any pain eating since I started solid foods. Lucky me - but of course I can easily overeat, so maybe not so lucky me. NO! I take that back! Everything is good, I am lucky, and very, very happy with my sleeve and my shrinking body.

Now I dislike the feel of chia seeds so I grind them to a powder. Oddly enough I love bobo tea.

@@MeAndTinyTina Yay! It's nice to have a well behaved sleeve isn't it! I drink The Smooth Move tea and have yet to have any Constipation issues. I haven't had any milk since surgery..11 weeks. Maybe I should try the milk.

@@BLERDgirl Is that like the bubble drinks? I drank them when I did my contract in Hawaii. Tapioca beads soaked in sugar and put in a drink?

[Elode 8,093]

One of my friends on My FB said I can boil them and they get soft...I wonder if that will kill the nutrients though?

[mykdzmom 387]

I have a friend who eats them in their instant oatmeal. I haven't tried them yet.

[Elode 8,093]

Omg!!! I boiled them and they turned out soft!!!! I'm so stupid excited about it!!! I have them chilling in the fridge for tomorrow. I think I will add it with my chocolate and PB Protein shake! This is fantastic!
