Have any of you heard of this site? I've been checking it out lately and she's got some pretty interesting recipes. She's very similar to The World According to Eggface and our page.

Her site is: http://bariatricfoodie.blogspot.com/

I encourage you guys to check it out!

I LOVE this website! I was never much of a cook before surgery, but I love these recipes. Sometimes I tweak them to make them fit what I have on hand (I hate grocery shopping even more than cooking) and find ways to incorporate even more Protein by adding flavored or unflavored Protein powder where I can.

BTW, the bananas foster French toast is to die for! I added vanilla Protein Powder to the batter in place of vanilla extract.

meh, canned cream of chicken Soup? more like cream of chemical soup.

Ha! Yeah, you gotta be careful with some of that. I've got my own recipe for homemade that I love.

That cream of chemical stuff helped me in my liquid phase, there lots of other stuff that's worse for you than that. I can't stand it now but it helped a lot then!

i think there are plenty of better options, but everyone makes their own choices about what they put in their bodies.

I'm looking at my cream of mushroom soup.... filtered Water, portobello mushrooms, potatoes, onions, celery, tapioca starch, expeller pressed canola oil and/or safflower oil and/or sunflower oil, sea salt, roasted garlic, mushroom juice concentrate, garlic powder, onion powder, natural flavors, organic spices.

What chemicals are you talking about?

Preservatives ^^^

Where? As far as I can tell it's the canning process that preserves. Maybe other kinds add preservatives.

How funny is it that we are all/were fat (and got here somehow!), yet I feel sort of judged about canned cream of mushroom Soup. Yes, we all do choose what to put in our bodies. ;) It's pretty clear that 99% of us sucked that one up. :D

actually, i was challenging the idea that a "foodie" would use canned cream of anything!

i like to get to know people better before i actually judge them. ????

Yeah I'd like to think we're past any judging of others. I'm glad you believe that there is better stuff out there to eat but what I was saying was at that stage it was best for me to find something that would stay down, and that worked for me. And if there is chemicals in the Soup I was obviously ok with it. I understand that what we put in our bodies is our choice, and while you believe it's chemical soup and that's your opinion, i rather liked it and respectfully disagree.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
