Pork loin made in the crock pot or oven
Can you tell me how you cook vegetables in the crock pot to make them so that they stay nice and colorful after they are ready to be eaten? Every time that I add vegetable like carrots and cellery to the crock pot they end up looking dark. Should I be adding vegetable broth to the meat and vegetables?

Lamb is my favorite meat. Do you like lamb? It is so delicious baked in the oven until it falls apart. I like it with salt, garlic and potatoes.

Pork loin made in the crock pot or oven
Has anyone made pork loin in the oven or crock pot? I used to make it before my surgery and would like to incorporate it back into my diet. I guess even any meat would satisfy my hunger for meat. Anyone have any thoughts about me eating meat at 3 months post op. Thanks.

Feel the fear and do it anyway. That is the name of a good self help book.

Who says you are only "allowed" a certain amount of anything? You are your own person. Eat what you need to eat to survive. Your Dr or your NUT does not rule your life. I too have a sweet tooth. I love the little lifesavers gummies.- How about Dates?
I wont be eating 10 pounds in a month, that would be excessive. I might have 3 or 4 dates a day. Ill refrigerate them. They should last awhile.- How about Dates?
I dont believe there are 90 grams of sugar per day. It would depend upon how many you eat.- How about Dates?
Well I could use the calories but not the sugar.- How about Dates?
Ok, ok Silly Kitty.- How about Dates?
I will eat them over the course of the month. Dates are very healthy. Yes, they contain some sugar, but I can handle that.- How about Dates?
I bought 10 pounds of them from Amazon so I need to be able to eat dates.- I bought my little Cheez Its again I just cant stay away from them
Cheez its. They are a cheese cracker.- I bought my little Cheez Its again I just cant stay away from them
I bought two boxes of 36 pouches each from Amazon. I am addicted to them. HELP.- How about Dates?
That tells me nothing about dates.- How about Dates?
Can we eat dates post op? I want to eat dates. I am almost 3 months post op and would love to eat dates. Can we have them?- Can you guys give me some advice?
Yes, I have tried them before and they have a good tolerable taste to them. I would be drinking them 2 times per day. They are called Frosty Chocolate. The total cost for two of them per day per month is 131.00.- Can you guys give me some advice?
Tomorrow I plan on ordering the Pure Protein in a can. I plan on purchasing them from Amazon. I want to buy enough for two per day. It will provide me with a total of 70 mg of protein per day. The cost is 21.00 per per 12 cans. So I am buying 60 cans to last all of August. Should I make this purchase? I have already tried this product in the past and really like it.- Sweet Tooth
