I buy tilapia and salmon at costco, package and freeze them in single serving size. My favorite for salmon is a ginger wasabi sauce I bought at a gourmet grocery. It's from Robert Rothschild Farm. One teaspoon is only 10 calories, and it's amazing. I'm sure if it's not available locally, you can find it on-line. For tilapia, I just sprinkle some Cajun seasoning on it and grill it on George Foreman, same goes for shrimp. I put them on a skewer and sprinkle Cajun seasoning on them. I'm just 2 and a 1/2 weeks post op, so I'm still on liquids, but I'm looking forward to having fish and seafood. They're going to be my Protein staples I'm sure.

I love fish, especially wild salmon and Ono. Wild salmon here in Washington. Ono when I travel to kauii every couple years. Ono is a very tasty fish, but hard to find in WA except at Asian market grocery stores.

I usually cook tilapia fish. I buy them frozen and I buy the smaller fillets. Walmart carries them (each fillet about 3-4 oz) I use a non-stick skillet and add just a little I can't believe it's no butter 1/2 tablespoon, season with a little salt, or sometimes no salt because the butter has salt. Cook the fish for about 3 minutes each side. That's all. Quick and simple

I also just cook frozen (thawed) tilapia in a non stick skillet on each side with whatever seasoning I'm in the mood for. I just cook until it's flaky. I'll use the parkay butter spray or just butter or olive oil cooking spray. I also will bake it with a mixture on top of fat free Greek yogurt, couple tablespoons of freshly grated parm cheese and dill and/or other seasonings. Bake until flakey also. I eat/crave considerably more fish post sleeve.

I keep my fish pretty basic. So that I do not spoil expensive fresh fish, I buy frozen bags of salmon and tilapia at the grocery store. I buy the highest quality of olive oil I can get too (why not, I'm saving so much $ on food anyways might as well get good s**t)

How I cook my fish:

Pan fried

Olive Oil

Real Butter

Mrs. Dash - Lemon Pepper or Garlic Blend

Salt

Pepper

Cooks in about 10 min or less

Tip: Thaw the frozen fish by running it under warm/hot Water for 2min before cooking in the pan, cooks and thaws much faster.

easy, simple, delicious

      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... :(
