Your welcome. I have found lots. Im in a place of bordem with my food & tired of it & in need of some diff recipes.

Another recipe I found MONTEREY chicken 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts 1/4 c. bar-b-que sauce ( SF) 1/4 c. real bacon bits (you can use real Turkey bits) 1 c. colby and jack cheese, shredded (fat free/weight watchers or reduced fat cheese) 1 14 oz. can Rotel tomatoes, drained (canned with green chilies added) sliced green onions pepper Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Pound out chicken breasts to flatten. Season with pepper. Grill chicken until no long pink (we used our George Foreman grill) and place on baking sheet covered with foil. Top each chicken breast with one tablespoon bar-b-que sauce, 1/4 c. cheese, 1/4 c. tomatoes, green onions and one tablespoon of bacon bits. Place in oven and bake until cheese is melted (about 5 minutes). ***This is the first time we marinated the chicken breasts before cooking and they were great. You don't have to though. Marinade: 1/4 c. olive oil, 2 T. soy sauce, 2 tsp. McCormick Montreal Steak Seasoning. (We only marinade about a half hour or the meat gets too salty for us.)

I found this on pintrest & wanting to try it. Sweet and Spicy Bacon chicken 4 chicken breasts cut in thirds (12 pieces--long strips) Bacon slices or Turkey Bacon salt and pepper to taste garlic powder chili powder brown sugar Cut each breast into 3 pieces, season all the chicken with the spices, then wrap a bacon slice around each piece, roll in brown sugar and place into an oven proof dish....make sure you have some olive oil in the dish too, like 2 or 3 tablespoons is fine {I skipped this since I grilled them. I honestly think you could coat your dish with nonstick cooking spray instead to save a few calories}. Bake at 400 degrees for 30 to 40 minutes or until chicken is cooked through and bacon is nice and brown and crispy. Delicious served with mashed potatoes with some of the gravy from the chicken drizzled on top. **Also great on the grill! No juices to drizzle on anything, but still delicious!

And on a stall you're probably losing inches.

I hv never heard of that before. Did he not explain why? Interesting.

My surgery was July 16th & i hv lost weight in my feet. My shoes are loose! I had a pair of shoes tht were tight & hurt to wear but now I can wear them fine w no pain. So Yes your feet can loose weight.

I get mine at Walmart. You shld be able to get them at just about any grocery store. I still have them in the evenings.

Have you tried baked fish? I did very well with that.

I was sleeved on July 16 & still hv problems drinking fluids. I do real good with meats but still hv prob w a lot of food. Today I tried to drink Crystal light, very tasty. I brought tht to wrk today & only that, Big mistake. From my chest dwn to pouch, i hv hurt all day...just like I hurt after surgery when I first started eating. It wld be a miracle if I got 8oz of fluid in by the time i got off wrk. I hurt everytime I took a drink today. Its strange! But I know it will get better & so will you guys. Have you guys tried SF jello or popsicles? Lowfat yogurt?

Bored with food! So I went to surfing the net. I dont know much about pintrest but the last couple of days I have found a lot of healthy protein recipes on Pintrest. So for those of you in search for some recipes you may want to try there. I googled "pintrest high protein meals" "pintrest low fat meals," ect. Just thought some may want to knw. Have a great night.

You guys are upset after losong 40 lbs & 30lbs in 6 weeks? My surgery was July 16th & Im at 31.9 loss but I hv lost a lot of inches & very pleased with it. Of course Id love to loose a bit quicker but its not happening. I thk its awesome you hv both lost so much in 6wks. It will come off.

What is a good calorie intake daily? I hv alao enjoyed this post very much...learning.

My surgery was July 16 & you hv lost more than me. I am losing slow & feel that it has a lot to do with Fluid intake. I just cant get the liquids down but im losing. The last I measured I had lost around 25 inches, so Im losing lol. Its good that your losing. Thats a plus! I hv done the same thing...compare myself & that can be very frustrating. So try not to do that everyones body is diff & everyone will lose differently. What I hv been doing is comparing what I've lost now & calculating what I will hv lost in 4mo, 6mo, 8mo and that Excites me.

Yes Happy Camper I am. I will sure try that, thank you so much. I've been drinking lemon lime gatorade. I found I can drink that but I still dont drink enough. Last week on Sunday night, i bought 3--32oz of gatorade & i was still drinking in that Friday. If that tells you how much I drink. A few nights I was able to get maybe 8oz of water dwn (coffeee cup size). Its strange. Not sure why liquids are so hard. Im losing weight, just not as fast prob as others & i dont cheat. I stay anywhere from 300+ to 600 calories daily.

Yesterday I had Lunch: 2 slices chipolte chicken breast lunch meat & 50% reduced fat cheese (not even an ounce) Dinner: 1 3/4 pc of jennie-o Turkey bacon & 1/2 scrambled egg Snack: 1 sugar free popsicle A few pc of canadian bacon & a few pc of cheese.

How far out are you? I know I felt the same way at times. Wondering if I ate too much but I hadnt. Some days i eat more than others. Is there a particular reason you are feeling this way? You will lose weight. It takes time to extend your pouch

I had charlie horses, took some potassium & drank some gatorade & they got better. I also hv a very hard time drinking water but discovered i cld drink lemon lime gatorade so im getting more fluids in that way.

My surgery was over two hours long. Not sure about recovery time. My doctor not only cut the stomach out but stapled it & sewed the stomach to ensure no leaks. So maybe thts why it's longer not sure.

If you dont mind me asking, what is mango salsa?
