Brussels sprouts on parade

While a status conversation on the joys or evils of Brussels sprouts is going on, here's a whole bunch of recipes. Many aren't particularly weight-loss friendly, but they can be altered. Some are just right.

I miss Brussels Sprouts so much - it has turned out to be the one veggie that still causes me issues - i can eat cabbage no problem - but give me 1 Brussels sprout and i get the foams - even 6 months out! I am going to try again at month 9. My nut said that that can sometimes happen - where you have an intolerance but it may go away - I hope so!

I LOVE Brussel sprouts and eat them at least once per week. My kids HATE the way they smell when I cook em :D I usually either use fresh ones and cut them in halves or really small frozen ones. Sprinkle a little olive oil, Kosher salt and pepper and roast them for 30-45 minutes. Delish!!

Roasting veggies has become a way of life! I never ate them that was until this year, but it's AMAZING! Brussels sprouts, green Beans and broccoli are all regularly featured in the roasting rotation at our house. The kids LOVE veggies this way (not so much the Brussels sprouts). They even refer to the green Beans as "green bean french fries". We prepare them pretty much exactly as to describe.

So glad I don't get the foamies! I do get very full feeling and feel like I need to burp up what I have eaten but nothing ever comes back. Thank God. This feeling usely last about 20 to 30 minutes if I overdo it

Cauliflower, one of my favorites, also likes to be roasted. Carrots and white turnips, too. If you roast a mixed up bunch of vegetables, you'll have a festive-looking dish on the table.

Cauliflower is good. If you like curry, I will sprinkle some curry powder on my cauliflower before roasting and it's awesome!

Haven't tried turnips or carrots. Willing to try any roasted vegetable though!

I'm 5 days post-op and my head thinks that Brussels sprouts sound SO GOOD!! (although my stomach is completely uninterested). Can't wait to (hopefully) be able to eat them again in a few months!!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
