I'm trying to find new Ideas for meals...Blogs and websites are too vague or have ingredients I would never have on hand. I want simple recipes and some of your favorites. Here is my favorite easy recipe.

2 lb of Ground Turkey

1 package of slow cooker McCormick Chili mix

1 small onion

1 can of Kidney Beans

1 can of Pinto Beans

1 can of NO salt Tomato sauce

put all ingredients in a Crock pot and cook per instructions either High Setting for 4 hours or low for 8hrs.

freezes well and I usually get a few meals out of leftovers

Just remember to check your recipes for Protein, calories & fat. Gastric bypass recipes can be higher in calories and fat because they have nutrient absorption issues where the sleeve surgery doesn't have that issue.

I just tried this recipe last night, i substituted cauliflower rice for the rice which shaved 20 carbs off the total.

      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.
