Mara005, I watched all your recipes and they look delicious. I am 9 days post op and can't have solids yet but will certainly make pizza-fied chicken when I can!

I love your recipes too! For the Mexican mushrooms, was that refried Beans only in the mushroom cap?

THanks! It's refried Beans, spinach, salsa and mexican cheese.

I miss pizza and italian bread...

Last night, my friends ordered a pizza and cinnamon sticks while we hung out. I had a few bites of pizza, and they went down okay, so I got careless and attempted a bite of a cinnamon stick. "NOPE!", said my band, in no uncertain terms!

bread does not work with a band, so I'm going to have to figure out other cinnamon-y Snacks. Garlic should be easy, though!

Nikils, here's a cinnamon-y snack you might try: a caramel rice cake (yummy by itself!) with cinnamon flavored Laughing Cow. You could sprinkle on more cinnamon if desired.

I bought a foreman grill but it was second hand so it has no instructions. Can you put frozen food and fresh veggies on it?

Fresh veggies yes. Frozen foods, I dont know sorry!

I FREAKIN LOVE PIZZA!!! Yea... i just figured out yesterday that bread is a no-no from now on. I can eat tiny amounts, like the crust from a pizza... but any more is pushing it. I have 4 cc in my band. I think one more fill and im good other wise i wont be able to eat. Im so used to just wolfing down food... half the battle is learning how to chew everything up really well and slowing it down.

      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.

      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! 😞
