Husband wanted nachos for the basketball games (Go 'Cuse!) so I made "nacho dip." But, lets be honest, it's really just my go to taco filling (see recipe below) topped with cheese and FF sour cream that you can dunk tortilla chips into.

I usually make my own tortilla chips out of the low carb tortilla wraps, but didn't have any on hand today so we use the bite size tostitos. The serving size is 24 chips but I only had about half that. I like to eat the filling with a spoon hahah.

Taco Filling:

1 lb ground turkey

1 small onion (1/2 medium)

1 can FF refried Beans

1/2 can enchilada sauce

1 pkt taco seasoning

1 can green chiles

1/2 cup shredded cheese (I like the Mexican blend)

Sauté onions until translucent. Add turkey until brown. Mix taco season as directed and add to turkey mix. Add all other ingredients one at a time, stirring. Top with salsa, cheese, whatever you like. Voila!

I had chicken gumbo from qdoba! Amazing.

Light black Beans, very little brown rice, poco, cheese and sour cream. I ate maybe a fifth of it! Lots of protein!

I was looking at their menu the other day and was wondering how the gumbo was. Thanks for the endorsement!

I made the fam biscuits and gravy. We get whole fresh cows milk (unpasteurized) and paired with the sausage it was yum. I had about 1/3 c of gravy. It's snowing here in KS and I was wanting comfort food. I love how these tiny servings hit the spot and are satisfying!

At a cancer benefit tonight, so not much to choose from. Had about 1/3 of a piece of baked stuffed sole and a couple of soft baby carrots.

My nutritionist told me that salad is the #1 thing people can't wait to try again after surgery. I bet it has to do with the crunch factor. I've had a salad twice now and they were both kind of disappointing. I'm thinking the mixed greens may not agree with me.

Did it make you sick? How far out are you?

      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.

      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! 😞
