Food Before and After Photos



Recommended Posts

Yea it is-my other recent obsession has been chicken kabobs with pepper/onion/tomato and big fat delicious shrooms. And a little coating of McCormick’s bourbon brown sugar or maple seasoning. Heavenly.

Like weight loss before and after photos but of your new diet !

I'm especially interested in before and after meal photos (take a pic at the point you feel restriction) but it can be of recipe substitutions, your refrigerator/pantry/shopping cart/etc

Ohhh! Great idea!!! I will do this next time! (ermmmm I'm guilty of ignoring that first little tale-tell sign cuz experience taught me that if I stop at that point I don't stay full for longer than 2hours and I don't want to be spiking insulin every 2 hours. I guess that's probably a problem? just spitballing...)

My latest crush. I get into "food jags" where I'm intensely satisfied with the satiety, satisfaction/taste of a meal and then repeat it till I'm done with it for a few months. This latest is my "eggwhite foldover"--think of it like an eggwhite soft taco with a slice of Hillshire Farms Naturals Black Forest Ham a slice or wedge of low fat cheese, hot sauce of some kind, and baby arugula or greens of some kind. Totes yum!

It's a great Protein bang for the calorie buck. I could have stopped about 1/2 way through but well...you know.

There were no survivors. :) :(

Made this last night and had leftovers for lunch. Smoked a lean carnitas (Frontera) marinated pork loin. I’m lucky, my husband really knows how to smoke and grill and I’m a decent cook.

This is 2 oz with 2 Mission street corn tortillas, a teaspoon of pineapple salsa. It was amazing and 160 calories. I can stay on plan because I eat well and don’t feel deprived.

Had brunch with friends this morning and guess what was on menu? Boobs! 😂

Ate all the greens and one of the boobs (a.k.a Smoked Salmon Benedict sans the english muffin topped with caper nipples)

Well...we took this pic with me attempting to hold up the plate to my chest. Based on this, I'd say: very small egg breasts. Though the teeny egg boobs are still way more perky than my own. 😂IMG_2962.thumb.jpg.6d59b8da3af05fd779d03ebadecf46e5.jpg

10 days on clearer liquids not even full liquids

I find out late next week if they will advance me quicker but I'm in no rush honestly, no appetite.

First meal of the day: "Egg taco" shell a la @FluffyChix, grilled chicken, spinach, carrots, cucumber, shredded cheddar cheese & Peri Peri Sauce (the entire thing is 167 calories, 20g Protein, 1.8 net carbs, 8g fat)

Ok, so this was delicious. A little too delicious that I took about 4 bites that were too big and too close together (i.e., one after the other with no break in between), and now I am too full. So the leftovers are going into the fridge for now and I'll take another crack at it (slowly!) in a few hours....looking forward to it...#yum.

Wow, it's all so different. I was allowed Protein waters right after my revision and shakes within a couple of days.

      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.
