The World According To Eggface

[JerseyGirlShirl 17]

Has anyone ever tried the recipies on the Eggface blog? (I think the web address is http://www.theworldaccordingtoeggface.blogspot.com ).

They all look pretty good in the pictures, but do they taste good? Her idea for using a Bento Box for lunches is really good; I'm on the lookout for one locally. I'm jumping ahead a little bit (I'm getting sleeved this Friday, so it'll be a while before I can experiment with recipies) but I'm just curious.

Does anyone have any other good resources for post-WLS meals?

Thanks!

I looooooove her. I follow her on FB and Pinterest and her blog. Her stuff is amazing.

You can find a lot on Pinterest. Just search for bariatric recipes. I tweak them a bit, but you get a lot of really good ideas.

Best of luck!

She is very good.

Btw, FB does have a few good groups. May be we should start one here?

I love her site and recipes! You have to remember that she is a bypass patient, so sometimes you may need to adjust (carbs wise) for the sleeve. I had ricotta pancakes last night...love them!

Thanks, everyone! Once I'm cleared for food, I'll try her recipies. (Had my surgery last Friday, still on Stage 1). The ricotta/pepperoni cups look soooooo good! I've also been finding some good things on Pinterest, too. I'm going to start collecting recipies and create a binder/cookbook for myself. It's weird; you would think at this stage that I wouldn't want to look at food and recipies in case I become tempted, but I'm really not! It's almost like my stomach and my head are finally in sync. At any rate, blogs like Eggface have made me kind of care more about my food, and actually want to take the time to make thngs instead of the old habits of reaching for whatever. And it shows that you can eat real food after surgery. So many people think you can't eat "normally" after WLS, and it's just not true. Makes me almost want to start blogging again myself lol!

ohhh, I like the binder idea!
