Quick dinner tonight: basic salad (forgot to buy spring mix :(), sautéed asparagus, and fresh cod. Posted my bfs plate for comparison. Every time I serve him Im reminded of how much I use to eat. It would be his portion size plus a second piece of fish and more rice. Sometimes I catch myself serving more than what I can eat but then I remind myself I won't even be able to eat that much so I put it back.

Bf's plate:

Ok, just in case you are saying to yourself: "Self? I feel like I need more chemicals in my life." :) I give you strawberry banana Protein fluff.

I actually had it mixed with Peanut Butter Greek yogurt and it was obscenely satisfying. I don't even care that my tongue is kinda numb. ;) hehe. Or that I'm glowing--just a little. :)

This was the yogurt concoction. I had already eaten half of it. Sorry for the gooberish pick. SUPER filling! Super filling!

You can use any flavor of Jello or Protein Powder. This was 100% whey isolate although all the recipes call for casein. But it still worked. :) I'm freezing the clouds to see what that texture will be like. I'm thinking I will use some cheesecake sf jello pudding mix to try it. The real recipe calls for strawberries frozen which sounds yum, but it's also 22g of carbs! Yikes! So I did this instead.

Full Recipe of Strawberry Banana Protein Fluff (5 servings-about 1 1/4 cups = 230g of fluff)

Single Servings of the Fluff (about 45g)

Single Serving of PB Greek Yogurt Mixed with a Serving of Strawberry Banana Fluff (dunno how much it weighed)

Note: if you’re wondering why the two different plates, the first one leaked through

Curious - why does everyone seem to make bigger/normal portions only to eat 1/3 or less? I can't imagine than an omelette reheats all that well?

      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.
