LipstickLady got a reaction from joatsaint in Premier Protein Drinks Review - Chocolate
Premier Protein bars are on sale a Costco right now, 18 for $15.
I like the EAS Rich Dark Chocolate best, but for 30 grams of protein, I do the Premier, too. It's a great way to knock out the bulk of my protein at one time. If you are like me and don't like the oversweetness of either, add a 1/3 cup of dried nonfat milk and blend. It adds protein and cuts the sweet. Makes it thicker, too.

LipstickLady got a reaction from joatsaint in Oberto Strikes Back at Vegans - Releases Bacon Jerky
Hmm.... I tried some pro-op and found it far too smoky and quite disgusting. Perhaps it was a different brand? I love jerky and I love bacon. I thought it sounded brilliant but the smell alone almost had me hurling.

LipstickLady got a reaction from lilyrose in Will I ever be able to eat my Faves again?
After a month of preop and five days post, I am so glad to have lost most of my carb cravings. My best advice would be to start looking for ways to "redo" your favorites for a healthier you.
I look forward to feeding my family healthier alternatives of our favorites so they don't go through the same struggles I have most of my life. Their future health is half of the reason I had this surgery.
This is an awesome blog full of recipe ideas. I am still full liquids, but I can't wait to try out some of her ideas!

LipstickLady reacted to kulita in Kulita's Meatloaf Spectacular
I have done that before too! I love it. If you get the mico muffin pan and make a batch of this you could make meatball sized moat loafs and whatever is left over could be used your spaghetti and "meatballs".

LipstickLady got a reaction from joatsaint in Piss off Ghrelin, you're not the boss of me!
On the pre-op dieting? GOOD FOR YOU!! I am doing the same thing. I figure that I am going to be the boss of me and I am going to make my decisions instead of the surgeon. If I cut the crap now, then I made a choice instead of having the choice made for me when the surgery is over. I think you are right on and I can't wait to hear of your progress.
