As an avid foodie I cannot wait to get back to real food! So share your recipes with me! I’m really into fall produce rn. I have been living off of acorn squash and apple Soup since surgery.

Sleeved 10/13 :-)

I laid in bed searching Pinterest for recipes the first two weeks after making my own recipe book lol... huge fan of muffin tin quiches with bacon crust. And any type of meatball!




Oh ok so I’m not a weirdo! I have been doing the exact same thing! I used to make muffin tin quiches before surgery anyway so I’m all about those!

Just a quick note, You can take or leave it but here goes....Acorn Squash is counted as bread on Weight Watchers and other weight loss groups. The reason I know this? Because I was eating acorn squash for lunch every day. LOL It played havoc with my WL back then. I'm sure you aren't getting near as much as I was eating due t WLS.

Is it only the acorn squash or all squashes? This is actually my first time having it I’m normally a butternut girl myself but my bestie made me this recipe and I’m hooked. I’m positive you can make it with butternut though.

I'm not sure but what I have learned thru my MANY MANY WL tries is all of the winter squash like the hard-skinned ones are usually higher in calories and stuff. Summer squash is your lower calories etc. But they don't last very long. If you look up the Calories and all online it will give you a better idea. Also, your new little tummy won't allow you to eat much, just measure out what you are supposed to have and you will be fine. If you are like me I love them with butter. LOL

      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.
