Can you eat them post op and if so, about how much?

Would a homemade open face turkey burger be better than a fast food burger.

Probably. I never did like ground turkey, but I should try it again. I just like to grill turkey breast in a cast Iron pan and add wrap it around some cheese and get it all melty. Good with avocado too. I usually skip the bread, but one slice of some multi grain thing would be too bad. Hmmmm, onions and the aforementioned Greek yogurt, garlic and oregano sauce?

Yep, I will try ground turkey again. I'd probably need to herb or spice it up though.

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!

I buy the 96% lean ground beef. It's just about the same nutritionally as ground turkey. Depends on which one you think tastes better.

Is this true my kids would love it if it were??

I like the way turkey tastes..

Ground turkey is good,I didn't think about the lipton onion mix thanks for the idea.

I bet if we use the George Foremans grill when cooking burgers it will remove most of the excess fat

Sounds good Laura!

The mixing is bad...I dread making meat loaf...but the end result is worth it.

I eat a lot of turkey and chicken.

Hi! Looks like you partied last night around here!

lol...it was fun but we missed you!

Believe me there were moments that I was wishing I was "here"!

Eating out is hard sometimes I found out.

"Why are you not eating the appetizers?" You need to have some of this" . "That's all your having! Why?" and every time some one said something every body looks at me I thought I was playing it off but apparently not good enough.. The worst was the dessert I had nothing to do while everyone was eating it! I know I can have some I'm just not ready

I completely understand...I usually use the " I had a big lunch" or " I snacked before we came so I'm not real hungry"

It is annoying and uncomfortable when people keep mentioning it.

But after a few months you will be a pro

This is the Internet. I couldn't say it if it wasn't true.

I hope so because last night was about a ridiculous amount of food and drink! And I think people get uncomfortable when you are not doing the same! I don't understand because I was still having a lot of fun! More fun than I've had in a long time at a social event...

Oh this thread is about cheese burgers!!

I love cheeseburgers! Oh no I hate them...

Ummm. I don't know how I feel about them right now !!

you cant think about food the same way after surgery...............food is fuel, a necessary nutrient for healing, weightloss and maintainance....

Go with a turkey or chicken burger and lowfat cheese........no bread! Change your thought process on food! Think of how to make your favorite stuff BETTER, less fat and calories....its kind of fun!

Good Luck.
