I love swordfish and decided to have it tonight for the first time since the band. I got banded July 30th. The fish was wonderful and agreed with me but as I took my time eating and the fish cooled down it got harder to chew. Has this happened to anyone else with swordfish? I usually eat salmon, shrimp and lump crab meat for fish. I am not the best fish eater.

Sorry, not a big swordfish eater, but what kind of lump crab meat do you eat? I tried some and it was full of shells and horrible.

As the fish cools, the juices flow out and it gets denser and dryer. Try to zap it the microwave a few seconds to see if that helps.

I buy jumbo lump crab at BJ's Wholesale. I think it is Bumble Bee or Star Kist. It comes in one pound containers. I love it and eat it for my go to Protein.

Well I have always thought it sucks that my food gets cold before I finish but that is what happens when you eat correctly. When I put fish in microwave to reheat I usually sprinkle a little bit of Water on it first.

I find with me the key to eating anything lies in how it is cooked. If there is sauce etc. I have tons of recipes on Facebook recipe group. Included But not limited to seafood, chicken crockpot, skillet meals etc. if you are looking for something I don't have I am happy to find it for you. It is not a support group and I do it because I learn from looking at recipes and different links . I really enjoy it. If anyone wants to join just friend me at Hely lb. Also here is one way I cook either tilapia or chicken. I sautée frozen mixed peppers, frozen chopped onions and garlic then add 1 chicken breast or 1 tilapia filet. I chop the tilapia up as I cook it. I then add 1 or 2 tbls lachoy sesame ginger sauce or teriyaki sauce. It is important to measure because of the sodium content. This makes me two half cup servings .

Just came form BJ's and bought the jumbo lump crab. It is chicken of The Seas. They even had a coupon at the front of the store for it.

I'll look for it, hopefully Kroger has it, we don't have BJ's around here :), but thanks for the info! I saw this recipe on that Diners food Network show with a crab meat canoli and I wanted to make it, but needed lump crab meat, it looks so good.

      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... :(
