Been a voyeur on this thread for a while but today I baked these great tuna, sweet corn & sweet potato frittata muffins again. They’re so yummy & freeze really well.

I threw in a stalk of finely chopped celery. Was going to add some capsicum too but it had died in my fridge.

About 100cals each, 9g Protein, 8g carbs & 1.3g fat.

Found the recipe in the guide to weight loss surgery nutrition my surgeon gives all his patients. B2F99924-A55B-4312-9C1C-1260F86278C6.thumb.jpeg.c6ba405d8421cae76b9499101a1f2520.jpeg

Breakfast this morning: scrambled eggs with a side of Dominican salami and cheese. Ate two slices each and one bite of the eggs. My bf ate the rest.

Its one meant for cooking ☺️ I usually fry it with a little 0 cal. olive oil spray. I tried it in the foodi not too long ago and it cooks well in there too!

Id have to get back to you on that lol I've never tried Halloumi cheese before. I did a google search and this is what I found:

I loooooove Dominican salami and cheese made just like that. My husbands family likes to eat that with yucca. It’s sooo good. Sadly, I like in Kansas and I haven’t been able to find either of those for sale here. We have to wait until someone goes to either New York, California, or Florida to get some. But it’s such a treat when we do get it!

Omg yessss its delicioussss. I love it with yucca too and the purple vinegar onions on top! I will say though, my preference is eating it with mangu.

Awww that stinks! :( Have you tried checking Walmart? I wonder if there was some way you could get them shipped cold.

New York has some great spots for Dominican breakfast. I live in RI and I'm lucky because there are like 5 or 6 Dominican corner stores within walking distance from my house that sell the ingredients and sell it cooked.

Pre-op I would go to one of the stores before heading to work and order a small container of mangu con los tres golpes (mangu with the 3 hits). $5 bucks for two pieces of cheese, two pieces of salami, two eggs, the mangu, and onions! All hot and freshly made at 7 am. It would fill me up for the whole day lol. Im glad im able to make it a little healthier now but its definitely a dish that needs to be eaten in moderation.

That sounds delicious! We don’t have anything like that here. I have tried Walmart and they don’t sell it here. It’s crazy cause when I was in Miami a while ago, they sell it at their Walmart but not here. It’s probably a good thing for me though because I like it so much and would probably go overboard with it.

      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.
