Someone sent me a DM asking why I called 240 calories of wings a splurge. This is a fair question so I thought I’d clear it up.

I maintain my weight on around 1300 calories a day so I tend to be creative and picky about what I choose to eat. 240 calories is not a lot, but it is a lot for 22 grams Protein along with16 grams of fat. That is a splurge for me.

I hope that helps clarify why I used that term.

btw, they were so good I ended up having 5 lol

Anyone tried cooking strawberries in the oven for three hours on 210. I saw it on Pinterest. Guess cooking them brings out the natural sugars and they can taste like candy. I’ve got a sweet tooth so this will be better for me than the alternative! Just put them in. We shall see!! I love Pinterest!!❤️🍓❤️🍓

Someone earlier talked about baking strawberries at 125 Degrees for an extended amount of time. I didn't catch for how long? Does anyone here know?

It was me🙋🏻‍♀️
It was cool on 210 for 3 hours. Mine didn’t come out very well. I think it was bc my strawberry pieces were are diff sizes. Think when you cut them up try and cut up to match sizes. Let me know how yours turn out!! I got it off of Pinterest.

Oh man its so simple (don't tell anyone 😂):

Just boil the dried hibiscus flowers with (or without) a small piece of the peeled & cut ginger until its a very very deep crimson color (30mins -rapid boil for 10 / simmer for 20)

Let it cool, strain it, sweeten it (I used stevia or splenda) and chill.

Done and done.

Enjoy ❤

      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.
