Been baking. For drinks yesterday & then today to use up the leftover ingredients. Mediterranean tartlets & savoury egg muffins. As usual I started with a recipe & then detoured considerably LoL! Froze most of the muffins but will have two for lunch today & tomorrow. And I used a mandoline to slice the onions for the caramelised onion tartlets for first the first time since I sliced off part of my thumb. Have to admit I had a moment of trepidation but then I just dived in slicing.

Random foods from the past week or so. The octopus shaped hot dogs were a kid’s dinner. 😂

I can’t believe I missed the opportunity to make octopus shaped hotdogs for my kids when they were young!

I used to make those for my kiddo! I'd boil them with her shell Pasta. She loved them

Left it a bit too long in the microwave. 2.5 min instead of 3 min on high would have sufficed.

Air fried Vegetable Gyoza & Ground Turkey. I’m prepping two different meals but decided to eat these together.

Snap! I’ve been having gyoza occasionally too lately (prawn though) but I usually just steam them. How much oil if any do you add to your air fryer & how long do they take to cook?

I usually have 4 gyoza for about 130 calories but only about 9g Protein which isn’t great ☹️.

I spritz a little EVOO directly on the dumplings but they don’t really need it at all. The Protein count was a lackluster 3 grams 🤣 which is why I added minced Turkey to the meal.

      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.
