I dont know why but i just cant eat black Beans. I love brown beans (pinto) i have only had black beans once and they were supposed to be cooked in a burrito and were hard. And tasteless. This was years ago.

I absolutely love the black beans instead of pintos! Not sure which one has the most Protein, but they are good, you should give them another chance. If you have a Chipotle nearby, try it. Let us know what you think. You can even try the canned ones, some are already flavored. I lived on those in the beginning when meat didn't work.

I must say beans, any kind really, I have been in love with since my surgery. They taste good and sit well, those and avocados. Wasn't a big fan of avocados before. But now. I love them. I always add it to my salads as well as beets. My surgeon recommended the beets for protein.

The same for me! My daughter makes fresh guacamole or salsa and it is great! I slice avocados and can eat them by themselves!

For the chili recipe just substitute your favorite beans for the black beans. It should make no difference. :-)

I for some reason dont care for black beans. My daughter loves them and for awhile, when she would make supper, she would put them in whatever she was cooking. On the other hand, I love pinto beans and could eat them every day!

Does anyone have any trouble with eating leftover meats that are reheated? I can't eat them for the life of me. Even in Soup I have an issue. And with me only cooking for myself, it makes it really difficult. If I don't cook something every night then I usually just have a Protein Shake. No leftover turkey for me. =(

I can't eat reheated meats....I often freeze uncooked meals as I cook, so meals are ready to cook. I can then pop things in the oven or micro to cook quickly. It helps with some meals. I also have a mini crockpot to make myself mini stews, etc. It would be nice to be able to eat leftovers for lunch.... I get sick of my usual cheese and nuts.

I had that problem for quite awhile. Just recently at almost 9 months post op I can eat a few leftover meats.

It depends on what meat it is for me. chicken, hell no, but I've reheated hamburger/meatloaf and was fine. I read somewhere that reheating changes the Protein bond of the meat making it drier.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      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! 😞
