I have!! and Omg soooo good! Lets put it this way, I enjoyed it so much I felt guilty.. and there was nothing to feel guilty about. lol.

I made the lasagna one. yum Yum! and had lunch the next day for work. It was great! this is where willpower comes in though. They were so good I wanted another.. I didn't. But I sure did want more. So now, I know I might make these as healthy treat to a cheat day for me because I like it to much and I don't like that I do. If ya know what I mean.

I have made the zuccuhini tots - love love them - double the recipe for a veggie serving. I have made the chicken parm. great as well, so easy to make and freeze. My mom made the buffalo chicken macaroni (I think that is the one), it was good as well. Not filling by itself, need to add a veggie to the meal.

if this is what you are talking bout then yes.

if not--sorry i butted in

just this week i made baby meat loaves and used my muffin tins..it measures out to be 3 oz a piece (and very easy to freeze).

i also did this with my stuffing at thanksgiving (same 3 oz)...and i am guessing you could do it with a variety of foods/meals.

I have been doing this for years making baby meat loafs - a time saver. Done the mac n cheese to and added some ham bits this is great for lunch boxes and for a quick meal on the go.

I am doing the meatloafs tonight (I add shreded carrots to my meat loaf- adds some texture and sweetness, plus it gets another veggie in my ultra picky hubs).

Thank you everyone. I want to try and get a handle on some of these now before the surgery so after I can just go "oh do this then this"

I can't wait to try them

I made some over the weekend for dinners this week and froze a bunch. The chicken parm and taco cupcakes were great! I am so glad someone suggested emilybites.com. Love the portions!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
