i do a lot of stir frys - chicken/pork with LOTS of veggies, all kinds.

i use either spaghetti squash / brown rice / saba noodles as replacement of the "white starches".

one pot meals in a crockpot (do a search on crockpot here) are also very easy.

This is a fabulous recipe. I served it at a dinner party. It's super easy (much easier than the title sounds) and it tastes great!

Whisk the following ingredients in a small bowl

  • 1 t wasabi paste (can find it on the ethnic food aisle in most grocery stores)
  • 2 t light soy sauce
  • 2 packets Splenda
  • 1 T lemon juice
  • 1 large clove garlic, minced

Heat fry pan on the stove on a medium heat. Once the pan is hot, spray pan with cooking spray.

Dip the 1 pound salmon (I have mine cut into serving-sized filets) in the mixture, and put it in the pan. Spoon the remaining mixture on top of each piece of salmon. Cook on each side for 4 or 5 minutes until cooked to your liking.

It's great just like that. If you want to make it extra special, you can make a Creamy Wasabi Sauce to eat with it. Just mix the following in gredients together and serve on the side:

  • 1/4 c fat free sour cream
  • 1/4 c low fat mayonaise
  • 1 1/2 t light soy sauce
  • 1/2 packet splenda
  • 1 t wasabi paste

I promise it's really easy and people will be very impressed! Better yet, 4 oz of salmon prepared has 199 calories and 24 g Protein. 1/4 of the creamy wasabi sauce has 37 calories.

(It'sfrom the Eating Well After Weight Loss Surgery cookbook)

      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.
