Don't know what to cook? Spanish, Thai, Jamaican, Lebanese, American or Indian?



Recommended Posts

For once, I got organized, made a mental list, went to costco and shopped with recipes in mind. SO not me, but it's worked out well. This week, I'll be posting the following recipes. In parentheses are what I bought at Costco for each recipe. I also tried to make smaller portions because I'm still cooking for an army, and we're having too many leftovers. So I defrosted one package of chicken thighs, and used them for two recipes here.

I'm also going to try to be better at posting nutritional labels for the food. All are high Protein and low carb.

  • Spanish smoky proscuitto wrapped shrimp (Frozen shrimp in blue bag, and proscuitto di cittero)
  • Thai Chicken curry in the crockpot (chicken thighs. These come in a package of 6. I used half a package--2 thighs for this)
  • Jamaican chicken curry (chicken thighs. These come in a package of 6. I used half a package--2 thighs for this)
  • Lebanese Kafta Kabab with ground beef.
  • American Hake with lemon pepper and butter (Hake loins. Individually frozen making them very sleeve-friendly. Big bottle of lemon pepper seasoning. Huge! Might try to find someone who wants half)
  • Indian whole "roast" chicken in a crockpot with garam masala (whole chicken)

I will NOT be posting my inedible attempt at a chicken enchilada casserole. Sigh. I will try this one again. It looked beautiful and tasted...not beautiful.

      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! 😞
