What is pumpkin chili?? sounds yummy!!!

It's delish! I love it! It's spicy with a little sweetness in the background. Here's the recipe.

PUMPKIN CHILI

1 Tbsp. Extra Virgin Olive Oil

1/2 cup chopped yellow onion

1 cup chopped red bell pepper

1 clove garlic

20 oz. fresh ground turkey (at least 93/7 lean)

2 (15 oz.) cans diced tomatoes with green chilies, mild

1 (15 oz.) can Tomato sauce

1 (15 oz.) can 100% pure pumpkin ( I only use 1 cup, but the whole can is fine too)

1 (15 oz). can dark red kidney beans

1/2 cup whole kernal corn, canned or fresh

1 & 1/2 Tbsp. chili powder

1 tsp. ground cumin

1 tsp. salt

1/2 tsp. ground black pepper

2 Tbsp. Splenda Brown Sugar Blend

few pinches of cinnamon

Brown turkey in olive oil for a few minutes, then add onions, peppers, and garlic. Cook until completely browned and drain. In the crockpot, add all other ingredients and stir until combined well. Add in ground turkey mixture and stir. Cook on low for 5 hours. It's even better the next day!

I guess I'm in the minority. I rarely have any issues with Pasta or bread. The only foods I have trouble with is scrambled eggs, french fries, and raw vegetables. Then again, I have never seemed to have the amount of restriction that most people get.

      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.
