Hey all,

I started a new blog called Muffin Pan Meals. I like making them for me cause they are band friendly and my family likes them too. So far ive posted recipes with nutrition info for , " Un stuffed peppers" and "meatloaf and potato birds nests". I'd love your suggestions and feedback.

Thanks!

I checked out the receipes and copied them. I was banded on 4/16/12 & had my 1st fill 5/29. I lost 25lbs in this short time. I am happy. If you have anymore receipes on beef and pork please post. I just started cooking healthy & it is fun.

Thanks for sharing. While I'm doing well I am having a tough time getting the veggies in and this is a perfect way. I will be sure to give you feedback on it.

Hey! Thanks for the encouragement. I'm working on a veggie one now. I have been banded for 4 years but gained back my weight when I got pregnant. I am working my way back down again. I bought a Vitamix to help me get my veggies in- I try to have a smoothie every day with veggies. I don't always make it but I do better than without it. Please subscribe to my blog!

Hi mztra

I was banded on april 18. My surgeon also said no pork beef Beans corn Pasta bread rice. ive been buying different forms of chicken and turkey to break it up...like chicken or turkey sausage turkey or chicken chopmeat and make meatballs or burgers. i like to make salad with a bunch of different ingredients so it dont get boring like mushrooms. Mozz cheese. Feta cheese. Onions carrots.etc.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
