Big Baby - I made the edamame wontons. (I jazzed up a recipe I found on the internet) I was going to steam them tonight like dumplings but ran out of time - so I just brought some of the filling which is delicious on its own.

I took a bag of frozen shelled edamame, cooked them in a pan with just a tsp of canola oil and 1 of sesame oil & 2-3 cloves garlic until they were softened slightly - I then put them in the blender with about 1/3 c. hoisin sauce and soy sauce, 1 tbls minced ginger (from a jar or fresh), about 3 green onions minced, 2 tsp siracha (a oriental hot sauce - but you could use a dash of cayenne as well) and a couple packets splenda and salt to taste. - It takes a while to really blend it down - I might try putting it in the food processor first. It tastes really good though. I then placed a spoonful in a wonton wrapper, moistened 2 edges, pressed to seal - add voila - ready to fry, steam or bake - I have baked some of my homemade wontons/dumplings before - important to spray or brush the tops with either pam or I can't believe it's not butter spray otherwise they come out looking a little pale and dry. (400 deg. for 12-14") can sprinkle with a little salt &/or sesame seeds

that sound wonderful - thanks for sharing!!!

Luluc - I hope you end up enjoying them if you start feeling better of course!

One note though - I think the night I made them first I must have had something salty to eat prior to making them - because in remaking them today I could tell I wasn't going to need as much hoisin and soy sauce (although being a hoisin fan - I will probably keep the hoisin up and bring the soy sauce down).

For those of you wanting to make them I would start with a 1/4 c of hoisin and just add soy sauce to taste - could always use some broth or stock to help thin down the puree.

Good Luck!

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
