b- Protein shake

l-can of chicken broth

d-chocolate/peanutbutter Protein Shake

48 oz of crystal light

I've eaten so badly the last 2 days--figured I might ought to try liquids for 2 days to balance out---afraid to get on scale. Don't know if it will work, but I'll try

Does anyone have a recipe for a crustless quiche? I want to try something different for Breakfast.< /p>

Georgia--did you detox work? Have you lost any more weight?

bigbaby, yes my detox worked very good. I lost the 2 lbs I had gained, plus 4 more. So I made my St. Patty's day goal!!! I did it for a total of 3 days, on 2 of the days I ate a small bowl of chili for dinner. The best thing is, it really calmed my cravings. Good luck with it!

Oh, I posted a recipe a while back for a crust-less spinach quiche. Here is the link http://www.lapbandtalk.com/f82/crust-less-spinach-quiche-49727/. Last time I made it I added a little bit of ground sausage to it and it was very good. Depending on how you count your food, that may or may not be for you. At the time, I was focusing on low carb, so it was fine for me. You can also change the recipe if you don't like spinach and maybe substitute broccoli for it. I made them in a muffin pan and it was perfect individual sized portions. Depending on the size of muffin pan you use, you may have to adjust the cooking time to less.

I just had a thought, I used to buy a quiche mix a long, long time ago at my local grocery store. There were different kinds you could buy and all you had to do was pour it into a crust. I wonder if it could be poured into a muffin pan (with no crust) and cooked. Just a thought, I'll try to remember to look for it when I go back to the grocery store and I'll check out the nutritional info.

I'll just go ahead and tell ya'll that today was just a weird day for me. I usually have a lot of restriction in the mornings and not much at night, well today was just the opposite. I had no restriction this morning and throughout the day, then tonight it decided to visit me, lol. Crazy how our bands have a mind of their own sometimes!

B'fast- low carb slim fast

Snack- 3/4 c. cottage cheese and 3/4 c. yogurt mixed together

Lunch- 1.5 c. canned chicken mixed with 1 tsp. pesto and 1/4 c. spaghetti sauce ( I told you, no restriction.....actually I felt like I could have just kept on eating)

Dinner- 4 bites of BBQ pork, 2 bites of baked Beans, and 2 bites of coleslaw

Georgia--thanks for the quiche recipe....I am going to try it with egg beaters. That's a great suggestion to put them in muffin pans. I have a muffin pan that I purchased from Pampered Check that makes tiny muffins. I might try using it--so that I could make a bunch and freeze them.

Bigbaby:

Please tell me how you make butternut squash Soup. I love butternut squash and soup works good on a cold day. Please let me know.

Thanks and congratulations. You're so close to onederland. I'm about ten pounds behind you.

Sue---the recipe is EEEEEEEEZZZZZZZZZ!!!!

You go to the store and puchase Campbells Gold label--butternut squash!!!

I can cook---but nothing that fancy!!! I really enjoy all of the Campbell's gold label Soups. It may be called Campbell's select instead of gold label--however the label is gold. ( I buy the ones in the box)

B'fast- flavored water, I was in a rush today

Lunch- teeny tiny spoonfuls of the following: chicken salad, black-eyes peas, cornbread dressing, okra & tomatoes, and lima Beans

Dinner- teeny tiny spoonfuls of the following: BBQ pork, baked beans, coleslaw

I was out of my routine today, we had 2 different family get-togethers today. Not the best food choices, but I really kept the portions small.

bigbaby, let me know how it turns out!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
