Food - Keeping it interesting!

Ok, so my pre Op plan allows for free grazing on low carb veggies, salad items etc, and one serve of healthy fat per day.
So rather than munch on celery orcarrot sticks (which I do also love) I thought why not make them into a faux wrap with Lettuce and avo.

I only ate one with broth for lunch, but wow it was great!

Anyone else getting a bit creative with their diet?

Dinner.. fits all macros and requirements.

lean Pork chop with mushrooms and steamed greens.. so good!

Didn't finish it all, and practised eating really slowly! it was good!

891 cals for the day.

Those look so good! And exactly what you are likely to end up eating in the long term so perfect preparation. My pre-op diet was 3 shakes a day for two weeks, no room for such creativity. Your surgery must be soon OP - best of luck with it.

My Surgery is on the 16th of Jan, I am nervous, but looking forward to having a tool to help me lose this flub I have been lugging about for far too long!

So tonight I put my chicken breast and veggies in a skillet with tex mex style spices and home made green Tomato salsa, bit of guac and Greek yoghurt. 297 cals

So a quick lean curry tonight veggies, chicken and konjac 'rice' - used my healthy fats ration to add a tablespoon (for 3 portions) of almond butter to thicken and make it creamy. It's not bad!
