Eggface rocks. I keep trying to steer the newbees over to her site. I starting reading her blog pre-op. She's the one that made me realize that I could still be a foodie and lose the weight. I got the Hamilton Beach soft serve maker. All last summer I made multiple varieties of the Protein ice cream. It really works and it is ever GOOD!

She is of the super strict crowd. She doesn't even eat crackers and uses cucumber slices in lieu of. No Pasta either. She shreds or slices zucchini. She even makes protein muffins' date=' protein donuts and is a wiz with leftovers. She even has a cheeseburger meatloaf recipe in keeping with the topic.

Every time I see a post about people hating Protein Shakes, I want to force them to make hers. I actually look forward to them and still drink them.

BTW, The Hamilton Beach one was about 30. It comes in retro colors too.[/quote']

I love Eggface's site, but bought her recommended brand of protein and HATED it... Different strokes, I guess... I am sick of protein shakes and have to gag them down... I try to get as much protein as I can from food...

Sometimes my kids get pissy about ground turkey I don't know why because it all we ever buy ( yet I still got fat) so I buy Liptons onion Soup mix and an egg and add it to a pound of turkey. Worst part about it is mixing with your hands yuck! :P

I wear surgical gloves to mix ground meat for burgers or meatloaf...

Ok so all this talk of cheeseburgers has got me craving one. So tonights dinner is Jenny O turkey burgers, 200 cal, 16 grams of Protein, 2% american cheese, 45 cal, 4 grams of protein, hamburger bun, 120 cal, 4 grams of protein. I can only eat 1/2 for a total of 183 cal, 12 grams of protein. Probably too many carbs but overall not bad.

chicken burgers with finely chopped onion and red/green peppers mixed in are delicious. I eat it with no bun and dip it in hummus or Greek taziki (sp) sauce.

I agree that this thread is a good read.

I bet half of you guys try to shove unhealthy food down your little sleeved stomachs and then come in here and put up a big front! ...however ,luckystar I am unable to answer your question..I was craving one not so long ago myself.. If u do indulge in a burger try a veggie burger ... If that doesn't cut it.. Make homemade thin sliders with lean meat and on a healthy bread.. Try trader joes or whole foods.. And I hope you enjoy it .. And let me know how it goes :) and when in doubt consult with your surgeon.. fudge these hypocritical haters on here

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.
