Thanksgiving Recipes



Recommended Posts

We only aim to serve, My Lady! Besides our roads to Obesity had many cobblestones, and we all have recipes that got us there! We. had, maybe still do have, a poster from the Dominican Republic, her recipes were wickedly good, then there was one from Mexico or the Phillipines with Dulce de Leche cake, oh me oh my, BAD WICKED STUFF! Alas all behind me as I sip broth, made a crock pot with beef round stewing down, it was marked down,maybe misshapen or SOMETHING? Smells so good, with dump some veggies from my cans in there, remember evil ex landlord locked me away from my fresh and frozen items when he changed locks. But it is so nice to wake up in a place, no ants or other bugs crawling out of walls, you can walk straight across floors without being careful, I do miss my curtains and drapes, but I will temporarily improvise, and if I don't go broke before the first of the month, things gonna be fine. I may never,eat normal foods again, although multiple people say I will. I know, I know, still Early Days, but 9 weeks seem forever!

Wow thank you all! I'm taking things very, very slow (Still). Most of the time when I eat "normal" (Non liquid) things, I feel nauseous, to the point where I've had to throw up. I'm pretty sure it's because I am eating too fast. The positive side is that I don't have a problem with my mostly liquid diet.




Yesterday, as I waited in line to order a family member an Apple turnover, I was thinking there had to be a "healthier" option. After all, apples are apples and as long as I get the sugar and bad carbs out, it should be an okay treat. In general though, and yes this is ironic, I am the safest person in the world to transport baked goods. I don't like any pies except Apple. I don't like anything else. Not cakes, muffins, brownies, cupcakes, pastries, twinkies, Cookies etc.




But Apple pies lived in fear of my wrath. :)




Thank you all again. This will be enormously helpful for Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners!


You and I are on a very similar path. My pouch is also temperamental. I haven’t tried apples yet but I was on the Adkins diet at one time in my life for 16 years. My favorite low carb pie crust with apples was crushed walnuts or pecans with melted butter. You just take the nuts and crush them and add soft butter and press into a pie pan or cookie sheet if making a apple crisp. I’m sure an internet search will come up with various recipes for the low carb nut crust. Enjoy

Thank you ScoutCR, one of the things in my twisted road to a new shelter, I did save my bag of commodity walnuts. Still no change in my condition, sometimes it feels better if I don't eat, I know warped but obviously" I ain't right", am I? I watch the surgery day twins go on to full foods, they are planning a nice dinner for Thanksgiving, albeit small portions, meanwhile Little Match Girl Me is standing with her nose preshed against the Brightly lit Toy Shoppe window knowing she will never have what is inside.💦💦And it stings like a razor cut to be left out.

        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!

      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
