Mmm... I made this tonight for dinner (I had 2) and it was tasty and filling. Low calories and lowfat. :)

I should sign up for pinterest... I have been on it and there are a lot of cool ideas. Maybe I will do that. ;) Which other ones have you made? I was going to make the cheeseburger one but i didn't have cheddar cheese so maybe tomorrow. I love making these cupcakes as they are so nicely portioned and a quick reheat for other meals. I put a bunch of meatloaf ones in the freezer that I can easily take out a couple pieces. I love it!

We had the chicken parm and the zuccuni tots last night. the zuccuni is my fav, I suggest go easy on the onion and instead of making 12, double them up for 6. Have used ground turkey to substitute the chicken once too........supper yummy

Yum, the zucchini tots look yummy. I will have to try that. Have you ever reheated them? Do they reheat well?

They were very easy to make. Browning the meat before assembling them is the only thing that takes effort. Note, the wonton wraps are typically in the produce refrigerated area.

You will get there. :) Look at all the weight you have lost already.

These were definitely tasty and worth making. They were very easy to make too. If you go on that site, there are similar recipes for cheeseburger cupcakes, and several others. Your mushy stage should be here soon and it will be great to get some semblance of food in you.

Hang in there. The liquid stage seems to drag on as your appetite comes back but it will be gone before you know it.

Made both the chicken parm and zucchini and froze them. Defrost meat before reheating and zucchini easy to reheat,did them both in the microwave. Zuc could be done in a toaster oven just to crisp up. My mother makes them as well and last week at the zucchini cold as a snack.< /p>

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

      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.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        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.
