  1. Now I am really frightened. The doctor scheduled me for my first infusion, but they neglected to mention the side effects! I really only wanted to know if it would cause constipation like the Iron pills, but they didn't know the answer to that question. So frusturating.
  2. I've been feasting on this for days now, and it still feels like I'm cheating! What a lipsmacker. chicken Tarragon salad on Apple chips, 11.2 grams Protein, 170 calories
  3. I can eat chickpeas and get more protein than popcorn. Wow. Recipe for Crunchy Kettle Corn Chickpeas
  4. The hunger hit me at about 3-4 months. Luckily, just a spoon of food and I'm good to go. This morning, I made imitation sour cream and it is perfect for adding necessary fats and calories to a Protein meal. Fills me up pretty quickly.
  5. At four months now, I am experiencing pure joy. Happiness about how I feel, but most importantly, the independance and no pressure with food. I know that I can always run to the corner store and buy a yogurt, a cheese stick, or a cottag cheese double! What a life!!! Today, I am smacking my lips, enjoying the best homemade lunch ever: CORNMEAL OVEN-BAKED FISH-FRY WITH TZATZIKI CUCUMBER salad, 21 GRAMS Protein, 190 CALORIES Recipe Link
  6. I was finally able to find a way to eat turkey deli: Drown it in dressing! I am three months out, and was able to eat this for lunch: http://proteinartist.com/2014/10/turkey-teriyaki-lunch-rolls-17-grams-protein-115-calories/
  7. I decided to highlight my RNY NSV's on my blog. Hope you enjoy this timeline: http://proteinartist.com/2014/10/post-op-weight-loss-surgery-success-timeline/
  8. Following up to say that it is such a treat to have a Breakfast meal in the freezer, ready to go!
  9. Four ounces should feed you for a day (three times a day). I was able to freeze 6 extra portions from this recipe. Granted, I did not measure the first portion which I ate straightaway. I may have eaten less than 3 ounces, which accounts for the extra portion that I froze.
  10. I literally inhaled a 4 ounce portion in minutes. Feeling stuffed and happy! OMG Beef Crumble with Tomato Gravy, Bariatric Chewable meat Meal, 9 grams Protein per 4 ounce meal http://tinyurl.com/nmnwsce
  11. p.s. I froze them in stacks of 3 pancakes with topping in between them, and it reheated in the microwave very well. Also, I froze the bananas whole, and ran them under hot Water until I was able to peel them. It chopped up in the food processor in seconds, even if they were frozen.
  12. I did very well on Ebay and Craigslist. On Ebay, I got more money for most. On Craigslist, I advertised $5 flat for anything. It was worth it, because one person took 7 items.
  13. I've got an expensive leather winter jacket, very slimming. It's a 2x. I tried it on a few days ago, and it wrapped around me twice!!! It's freezing now in New York, so I'm just wearing three hoodies when I go out.
  14. I edited. Can you see it now ?
  15. I just scarfed down three of these! I think this is my newest most favorite recipe, EVER! Probably because of the no chewing part. MMMMM http://proteinartist.com/2014/09/dreamy-creamy-pancakes-9-5-grams-protein-per-4-ounce-meal-soft-enough-for-bariatric-puree/ or: http://tinyurl.com/kbuys7p
  16. This will be the best gift you will give yourself and your family. GERD might get worse with the sleeve or band. GERD vanishes with the bypass. Your weight loss will be permanent, it's kinda hard to con your pouch. You will have no regrets. Regrets are rare, and usually only to those who are adamant about outsmarting their pouch. Well, those people should not have the surgery in the first place. If you follow the rules ad take your supplements, you will be a healthy new you so quickly. I am three months out today, and I am forever changed.
  17. Shredded, stir fried - I used to mix it with noodled for 'cabbage and noodles'. Now I think I'm inspired to try making some fritters.
  18. CREAMY Protein DIPPING SAUCE, 3 GRAMS PROTEIN PER OUNCE http://proteinartist.com/2014/09/creamy-protein-dipping-sauce-3-grams-protein-per-ounce/
  19. I have dozens of 2 ounce pureed foods leftover from my pureed stages. I need to empty my freezer. I have posted about this several times but nobody seemed interested. I have all the portions clearly labeled with their Protein counts. I can't understand what I'm doing wrong because when I had the surgery, I was desperate for help and preparing my meals in advance gave me everything I needed for recovery. Looking for advice, but also for people to come take these foods from my home! Thanks.

  21. Yes that was me. See here http://proteinartist.com/2014/07/falafel-balls-and-dill-dip-16-grams-protein-per-4-oz-puree-lunch-meal/
  22. You need to be able to cut it with a plastic baby spoon, or I won't be able to chew it. :-) Works for large buffets at conference. Just bring your baby spoon and let the feeding commence.
