Fat Guacamole Devils



Recommended Posts

Recently found this recipe on Mark's Daily Apple - which is devoted to eating primal - a way of eating I have been moving towards for a while - with Protein first as my cardinal rule - after one of my good friends who is a firefighter raved about it (her gang at work eats primal, and the are crossfit folks - cannot imagine people more fit.)

Hilarious name - and I have not tried these yet but they look yummy.

My those do look delicious. I think when I go to my friend Sam's birthday party I'm going to bring some of those. He usually has guacamole and deviled eggs so this will be a surprise treat.

The recipe is just peachy, but THAT WEBSITE!!!! I'm going on that regimen, fo you grok? LOL

Seriously, there is some good information on that site and it's not difficult to follow either nor is it restrictive. It encompasses much more than diet.

Now I have to continue the cholesterol fight with my PCP who think that despite losing 75 pounds I must eat more carbs because my cholesterol is high. He also thinks my dead normal blood sugar and A1C is just a fluke and I'm diabetic.

I started pre-surgery eating this way - and after surgery I need to get back to it (still have the icky shakes to deal with to get the Protein in) - it is amazing how much better you feel when you start to follow the blueprint.

when I eat white flour/bread it is like I have been darted by a big game hunter haha.

BTW... a little tip for making perfectly centered eggs. Buy a carton of eggs. or however many eggs you plan on making, and rest them on their side over night before you boil them, so the yolk can settle in the center of the shell. That way the hollow part is centered in the half egg white sections rather than to the larger end. A little trick I learned from my grandmother years ago.

And I will be making these tomorrow. already bought all the fixings!

OK Just made them and they're in the fridge chilling. I tasted a spoonful of the green goo I had left from stuffing the eggs and it was AWESOME! I made one Dozen eggs so the family gets to try them as well.

Only things i did differently... i added 2 minced cloves of garlic, and I don't care for real chunky guacamole so I processed it down till it was near smooth.

Thanks for the tip about centering the yolk - I picked up an avocado shopping today but it is hard as a rock and needs to ripen a bit - so it is grilled chicken with a tiny pomodoro salad for me for dinner (sliced roma Tomato, buffalo mozzerella, and basil with a splash of olive oil and cracked pepper - yum)

Good to know those fat devils will be yummy :)

      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! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.
