Anything with chicken/meat is low carb, so I look on allrecipes.com for grilled chicken recipes, beef recipes, pepper steak recipes etc.

Then I go to myfitnesspal.com and go to the recipe calculator and figure out how fattening/carby the dish is.

That has been helpful for me

emilybites.com is really good and she usually puts the nutritional information (based on MFP) at the bottom of her recipes. I only tried the slow cooker buffalo chicken and it was really good. Sparkpeople.com is a good website to look up low carb recipes as well.

I like to take recipes and turn them low carb. For example:

I buy the green enchilada suace can and follow the recipe on the back. I use low fat ingredients with it and instead of tortillas, I use sliced deli turkey.

For lasagna I use low fat ingredients and then I use deli sliced roast beef and I make lasagna rolls with the sliced roast beef, place them in a 9x13 with a little sauce at the bottom and topped with sauce and low fat cheese and bake.

I like genaws.com She is strictly low carb, NOT low fat. So I just convert everything to low fat.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
