Almost 6 months out 65 lbs down started at 308. Learned that I can get a good amount of carbs down if I eat them slowly. Need to get back on track. Dont love meat. In fact get repulsed when I Cook meat or fish. Sick of eggs. Anyone k ow of ways to get off of carbs while being satisfied with other choices. Or bean recipes that are good sources of ptotein?

Cottage cheese, Peanut Butter yogurt, milk, many veggies and many nuts are high in Protein.

Yeah carbs are not our bariatric friend. Stay far away from them. In moderation is fine but if your already falling back to them it's best to clean them right out of the house.

Make a menu for the week and go grocery shopping after a meal and stick to the list. This really helped me.

Not sure what support you have but talk to your dietitian about portions and meal ideas. Also could join if you haven't yet the meals forum on here.

Great ideas. Or even Google bariatric meals. There are thousands of great ones.

I know you are sick of eggs, but maybe in a new form? I've been making mini-quiches with an almond meal crust: 1 1/2 c almond flour, 1/2 c tapioca, 3T cold butter, 1 egg, 1t Water, salt. Cut the butter in to form a dough. Then I push the dough into a silicon mini cupcake tray and prebake until golden. then fill with your quiche mixture. I freeze them and then grab one on my way out the door to microwave at work.

Some good bean dishes that aren't chili:

Falafel

Black Bean burgers

"meatballs" made with lentils - google NY times veggie balls

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
