3oz of blackened salmon. Very easy and delish!

Got a 6oz salmon fillet from the grocery store for 3.50. Added blackened seasoning and pan seared with olive oil. Definitely hit the spot!

In moderation. I made a little pasta with mostly meat sauce.

Crab Cakes - Low carb, with no crumbs!

Submitted by: JPTOWNSEND Introduction A pure, just crab, cake, held together with just a bit of egg and mayo Minutes to Prepare: 5 Minutes to Cook: 7 Number of Servings: 8

Ingredients :

Crab meat-canned -16 oz

1 large fresh egg

Worcestershire Sauce, Lea & Perrins, 2 tsp Tabasco Sauce, 1 tsp

Lime juice, 1 Tbsp

Pepper, red or cayenne, 1/4 tsp

Tarragon, 1 tsp

Mayo, Smart Balance Omega 3, light, 3 Tbsp

Directions Mix egg, mayo and seasonings together. Gently stir in crab. Spray a foil covered cookie sheet with non stick spray, Scoop out 1/4 cup of the mix and dollop onto the cookie sheet. Broil for 7 minutes until browned on the high spots and egg has set. Number of Servings: 8

For those who are not eating very much you can do what I do and halve the recipe. I also use lump crab instead of claw meat.. Taste better!! I put some old bay in for extra kick and measure out the wet mixture in a 1 oz medicine cup so I have the perfect size crab cake with no measuring needed after baking! I make a cocktail sauce to go with it using horseradish and low sugar ketchup that only has 1g sugar.. I believe the crab cakes may have about 2g carbs. The recipe can also be found on sparkpeople.com

Carbs are 1.4g per cake. So if you halve the recipe it would be half the carbs...less than 1g carbs!

When did you have your surgery? They have bread crumbs in them. Some people like me have problems with bread products.

I had surgery the 8th. My crab cakes may have had bread crumbs but I couldn't tell that there was. Ill have to check the ingredients in them tomorrow.

If they do have bread crumbs and have high carbs try making the ones I posted the recipe for. It takes a whole 5 min or less to prepare and about 7 min cooking!

      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.
