I had a small sweet potato, with a tablespoon of i cant believe its butter,

And i boiled a boneless skinless chicken breast. With salt and pepper, curry, garlic powder and some soul food seasoning. After it cooked i put a tablespoon of BBQ sauce to the side so the bites of chicken wouldnt be to dry,

All was good, filled up quick even tho i was slow eating

Ughhh first time eating ihop in 1 1/2. Ughh Yucky!! 1/2 pancake with sugar free syrup. Pouch is killing me. Turkey bacon was good.

Sounds so good. What's your recipe!! Please share:). I would love to try it before my surgery date

It's SO yummy and easy!!

1 package boneless skinless chicken

1 bottle Russian Dressing

1 packet dry onion soup mix

1 jar apricot preservers

Spray baking dish. Place chicken down, cover in dry onion soup mix, drop spoonfuls of apricot preserves over each piece then spread over all the chicken. Pour Russian dressing over the too, cover, and bake for 1 hour at 350.

For the spaghetti squash I just cut it in half, scoop out seeds and pulp, spread 2 tbs olive oil all over inside and out. Place face down on a baking sheet and bake for 1 hour at 350. Once finished, allowed to cool for about 5-10 min then take a fork and "string" the inside of it out to make your "spaghetti noodles".

That was a major fail. Return to sender 5 mins after eating. I think i ate too fast or maybe it was the rice. Me and rice don't get along too well. DOS:358 CW:270 SD:1/28/13

Jerz, I know we aren't supposed to have much rice. I find if the rice is moist day in sauce and I eat small bites and chew up I can eat a little here and there. I love rice so I didn't want to give it up all together. Good luck on your journey to a new you!!

Fish chowder:

1/4 medium onion chopped

1 1/2 tbsp of butter

2 small red potatoes cut into chunks

1/2lb of cod' date='haddock,scrod (any white fish will work)

Salt/pepper

1 tbsp of Thyme

Bay leaf

1 5oz can of 2% evaporated milk

1 1/2 cups of milk (I use 1% but skim works too)

1 8oz bottle of clam juice

Sweat onions in butter until translucent. Add potatoes and clam juice. Add water if needed until potatoes are covered. Add thyme, bay leaf, salt and pepper. Let summer covered for about 10min. Lay fish on top and cover again. Cook for another 10min. Add evaporated milk and regular milk and simmer for about another 5-10 min. Stir gently so you don't break the fish up too much. Season with salt/pepper to taste. Enjoy!!

I have to mention this is always better the next day. And I get about 4-5 my size servings out if it. If your cooking it for your family I would maybe double the recipe except for the clam juice.

Here's a pic of it! Turned out SO yummy and the spaghetti squash was perfect with it!

That does look yummy!!!!!!! The Russian dressing and preserve aren't to bad on the pre op diet. Or should I wait till I'm post and on regular diet?

It depends on how strict your pre-op diet is. I didn't have one at all, so I can't answer your question with total honesty. I'm sorry! Google Russian dressing chicken nutrition stats then compare it to your diet plan. I couldn't imagine it being too far off of what the diet is though. I used the boneless skinless tenders and it only came out to like 103 cals, 16 carbs, and 23 grams of protein per tender. That's completely fine according to my docs post op diet.

Ah! That's what snow crabs look like. No wonder everyone loves them so' date=' we have something similar here in Australia, sand crabs, but the legs are minuscule, those crabs look awesome!![/quote']

They get really big!!

You know u can get something besides the footy tootie, they just subtract the cost of that from what u order. I get those all the time too.. For each family member ! Went the other day and got steak tips with sautéed mushrooms and onions, it also came with pancakes, 2 eggs, hash browns and my husband ate all the food except about 4 steak tips and a bite of mushrooms and onion. Had the coupon and they took $7.50 off the bill to replace the free rooty tooty, so we only paid like $3 !
