tra0322 got a reaction from Jeanne14 in Roasted Buffalo Cauliflower
I love anything buffalo flavored. Since buffalo wings aren't exactly the healthiest, especially once you've had WLS, I searched for healthy recipes where I could still satisfy my love of buffalo sauce.
I got fresh cauliflower and cut it into florets and tossed it in a small amount of extra virgin olive oil and a little bit of salt and pepper. I spread the florets evenly on a baking sheet and baked for 25-30 minutes on 400°. After I removed them from the oven I tossed in buffalo sauce and they were ready to go! Very delish. Obviously not high in Protein but it's low cal and a healthier alternative to wings. Can be served with ranch/blue cheese but I opted against it.

I am 17 months post op. I've lost 102lbs. Key is making sure you get your daily Protein intake. It's not as easy in the very beginning but you'll get there. My biggest issue has been seeing myself as thin. It's a mental thing for sure. For my entire life I hid behind my weight and now I don't have that to hide behind. It's been a process but I wouldn't change my decision to be sleeved as it has been the best decision I've ever made!

tra0322 got a reaction from thenewkara in How Long Does It Take For Them To Schedule Surgery When U Start?
I had my initial consult on July 18, 2012 and my surgery is this Thursday, 9/13/12. My doc required 2 appts with the dietician in his office, 1 support group through his office, psych eval, chest X-ray, upper GI, blood work and EKG. I also had to have my primary fill out a form letter showing support. Additionally, I had to document my weight loss attempts going back 5 years. That was all submitted to my insurance (horizon blue cross blue shield of new jersey) and they approved it. Start to finish was less than 2 months. Good luck!
