That looks so good!!! I am going to make it soon. My dh is a big sweet potato fan. The recipe calls for yellow sweet potatos. I don't think I have ever seen those. I will use what I have and I bet it will still be good. It is 49 F this morning so Soup weather is officially here lol :D

I had very ripe bananas on the counter and always make something quick and easy with them. Usually it’s my banana Cookies which consists of mashed bananas, rolled oats, and cinnamon. That’s it! But I wanted to do something different. Let’s do a banana bread. Soooo, I found this vegan banana bread recipe. I was kind of iffy about it due to the reviews, but mine came out fantastic! The things I changed after reading the reviews: did a cup of sugar, added cinnamon, and maybe 1/2 cup of mini chocolate chips (whatever I had leftover in the pantry) and baked it for 65 mins

Simple Vegan Banana Bread.

Sorry for the sideways view. Oh yeah, no oil!

lunch today and a preview of my lunch I prepped for the week.

Chickpeas and corn cooked in a small amount of BBQ Sauce, chunky cucumber, cherry tomatoes and purple onions. This bowl has a small amount of brown rice but my lunches will have fresh spinach instead.

I stumbled across a great website totally dedicated to Whole food Plant Based eating.

      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.
