Hi everyone, is there an option to test how acceptable a recipe is for WLS patients? if yes, is there a way to add a recipe to the web site? Thanks and all the best :-)

I can start off if you like :-) I made something my family and I really enjoyed today: Middle Eastern style Blue Crabs: rinse crabs, snip off eyes. For 1 kg crabs, in a large pot add 2 quartered red onions and spices: 4 bay leaves, zest of two lemons (peel using a vegetable peeler make sure you only use the yellow part as the white will make it bitter), 2-3 tsp salt, 1 tsp black pepper, 1/4 tsp cinnamon, 1/2 tsp all spice, 1/2 tsp cardamom powder, 1/2 tsp ginger powder, 1/2 tsp loomy powder (petrified limes, if not available, can omit). Add room temp Water till 1/3 of the pot, bring to a boil and let boil around 15 minutes. Add crabs facing down, let boil then simmer covered till crab shells turn orange- takes around 20 minutes to cook completely- turn off the heat, remove crabs and consume immediately. Reserve stock for Soup ????

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
