I used 110 g cashews (the recipe calls for 150 g but I only had 110 g available) but the idea that it might work out fine anyway without having to adapt the rest of the recipe was a good one since I like it heavy on the nooch.

110 g cashews

4 tbs nutritional yeast (different brands have a different taste so you might have to find your favorite first)

0.5 tsp onion powder

0.5 tsp garlic powder

0.5 tsp salt

Throw everything together and swirl through a blender for a few seconds.

---

There are different recipes out there. Some only call for garlic powder and salt, some for both garlic and onion powder.

Oh boy... Can't keep up with all these fantastic meals! Stormy Sunday yesterday perfect for cooking - So, here's some rosemary parmesan cornbread biscotti to go with Italian sausage Soup for dinner tonight. I always like the soup to cure overnight before serving. I'll post dinner tonight, later...😏IMG_6637.thumb.jpeg.cbeeed9b414fc03d731bae72c0e9af4c.jpeg IMG_6619.thumb.jpeg.734d587536f4a83f8b6151de2c5b1fc0.jpeg

Rest of the bean Pasta. Rest of yellow curry paste (will switch to either red or green vor variety next) with coconut milk and mock chicken pieces. Vegetables are: broad green Beans, broccoli, brown mushrooms and shiitake mushrooms.

Will eat that tomorrow with fresh cooked rice.

I also steamed some broccoli and mushrooms in the microwave. Together with a sweet & sour sauce it's going to be part of lunch tomorrow.

Looks pretty boring in that plastic container.

Was 22 degrees this afternoon...in NOVEMBER!

Patio lunch: Teriyaki salmon on a bed of broccoli and romaine salad. According to the menu, is 580 calories for the whole thing.

I ate 1/2 the greens and almost 1/4 of the fillet...leftovers put in the fridge and was eaten by someone in the house...lol

(also had a vodka caesar beforehand (not shown), approx 150 calories)

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
