Saving that recipe! I have almost all the ingredients...just missing the wheat gluten. Sounds yummy.

I thought so too!

I can see chopping it up with some veggies and making a Chinese type stir fry for sure. I need to go shopping at the Whole Foods store. I wish we has a Trader Joe's near by. I am going to try some tofu also. That web site had some recipes using it that looked delicious.

Ugh, maybe not. 😕 I'll have to see more than just one article but it raises some questions for me.

I'll have to research this more myself. It seems the fermented tofu is good alternative either way. I haven't eaten tofu before ( at least not on purpose) so I have no idea if I will even like it.

We are one and the same. Lol. But I'm definitely making that seitan. It just sounds good. Like I'd be eating it all by itself.

Happy 3 Months Post Op Ya'll! I hope everyone is doing well. Even though my doc follow up isn't until tomorrow, I weighed in anyway. I'm now 206. I went down 12 pounds since our 2 month mark (6 of those in this last week). Crazy huh? So, I took a pic this morning, will upload it sometime during the day. I don't feel like sending it to my computer nor do I feel like logging on my phone...but I'll do it eventually. So, you'll see my stats on the signature/ticker on the bottom of my post. I've lost 60 lbs from my highest weight, 52.4 lbs since starting, and 38 lbs since surgery. The best part of all of this is changing my diet and getting healthier. I'm truly happy about this. :D

      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.
