4/27 - Went to see my PCP. I weighed in at the same weight lol. She said it was actually okay due to me having ate and drank during the day. My blood pressure is normal and my sleeve is doing amazing. Today I cooked the following:
1) Cauliflower cheese sticks (reduced fat cheese) - I did not like it. I will not be making that again
.
2) Steamed shrimp with zucchini noodles, with (1 TSP of Alfredo sauce from whole foods). The zucchini noodles were not good
. I keep my food separated when I eat which is awesome. I ate my 6 of shrimps and lightly dip it in the Alfredo sauce. That was delicious.
On Saturday, I am thinking steaming me a tilapia. I went to trader joe's and purchased a wild tilapia. It is costed some money but it will be worth it (I hope). The only fish I have ever eaten that was not packaged is fried fish.

I only ever cook fish en papillote ("in paper" you can use parchment paper or foil, but the paper is better). It's foolproof and always comes out moist, and the tilapia ends up tasting like what you put in with it. Here's a basic version:
In the middle of a square of parchment paper, place three slices of lemon (seeds removed). Place tilapia over the lemons, season with salt and pepper, and add 1tsp of high-flavor butter on top of the fish (only adds 33 calories, but a lot of flavor and good fat to help your body absorb nutrients. Trader Joe's cultured butter is the BEST for this).
Fold the parchment paper. You can find a bunch of ways on Google Image with the words "en papillote folds". Much easier than me trying to describe it.
Then bake for 10 min at 400 on a greased baking sheet and you're done. It's seriously easy.
To sum up:
paper
lemon/vinegarette/tomato slices/Dijon mustard
fish
seasoning (salt, pepper, herbs, garlic, whatever you like)
tiny bit of fat (butter, olive oil, mayo, etc)
fold
bake 10 min at 400.
Foolproof.

So glad you took you're weigh in lightly, that's a good positive attitude. We all get a bit too focused on the numbers going down but it's cool to take measurements from time to time too and when you see how many centimetres/inches have come off it makes up for the weight not coming down. I had 1 week where I stayed the same too but weirdly my measurements had dropped anyway. Go figure. Also if you're now moving more than you were before you will be developing some muscle which weighs more. The week I stayed the same I had done roughly 10kms power walking throughout that week so I was pissed when my dietician weighed me and I hadn't lost anything. She explained that I would have put on muscle and she did my measurements instead which was very encouraging. Keep up the good work. 🏃🏽♀️
