I tried chicken earlier and my pouch doesn't like it. So I made 3 grilled shrimp and put it in half of a corn tortilla. Added some low fat sauce. It is YUMMY!!!

This is still my favorite meal. I eat it a lot when I don't feel like making anything. Glad you got something that satisfied you. If you didn't do that once in awhile, I think we'd really regret the surgery! ;)

My surgery date was April 22. I think my loss is on track. We eat so little of it that I don't think it hinders the loss. It goes down good and tastes good too. It is in my plan too.

Ladies! Please tell me how you make this refried Beans? It is not part of my culture at all so I have no idea.

We get tinned beans here, a few types, but how do I prepare it to make this refried beans?

My pouch does NOT like chicken, and I seriously need Protein, I'm getting too little!

You can get refried beans in a can, or make them yourself. They are pinto beans. Just drain them, rinse them, put in frying pan, and mash. You can add salt, pepper, and onion if you want. They are very smooth once mashed and go down good. Very good with cheese and salsa.

Do you use any liquid to smooth them out?

You can use Water, milk, or broth. Just enough to mash them smooth

I buy them in a can you can get them either by the canned vegetables or by taco seasonings and taco kits in the grocery store .....the ones i bought just say fat free refried beans ....i heated 3oz in a bowl with maybe a teaspoon of shredded cheddar cheese in theicrpwave for 30-45 seconds and then stir in some taco sauce and it comes out thin and creamy

Made what I'm calling chicken stew for supper. Sliced up chicken breasts, potatoes, carrots, onion, and added green Beans and corn. Threw it all in crockpot with cream of chicken and cream of celery Soup, then thickened with cornstarch. Just had a little taste and it is sooo good. Perfect supper on a cool and rainy day here in Wisconsin! :)

What is your surgery date and how many ozs are you eating? I'm just curious when everyone went to 4 ozs.

      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... :(
