What are you eating for Super Bowl Sunday?



Recommended Posts

As the chef, I'm just starting to think about this.

Any ideas for food that's fun, tasty, but not going to destroy all our good work?

I'm thinking about:

  • Trader Joe's has some very tasty chicken Jalapeno sausages that are 100 calories each...
  • Toasted Pita Points with Greek Yogurt Spinach/Artichoke dip...
  • Grill Chicken Tenders with hot sauce and a little blue cheese dressing...

What are you planning?

2 1/2 years after the sleeve I will have a meatball, or a cup of chili, or raw veggies, at a club we belong to. I will cook and likely eat what I take. Pret much my husband and I eat whatever we like, share a filet mignon, and eat in moderation. The food is not that important anymore. Loving it.

I plan on making grilled chicken kabobs with peppers, onions, mushrooms, and squash with a fat free tzatziki sauce, fruit and cheese plate with a sugar free cream cheese dip, and "pregnant pickles" which is a pickle spear rolled up inside a slice of low fat ham that has fat free cream cheese lightly spread on it. They are totally addicting but pack a good amount of Protein for "junk food." I know with my tiny tummy I wont get but a few bites in but I wanted to serve things I know my husband would like to munch on too. Our friends will be bringing other party foods but I know I wont be tempted. Ever since I had my surgery, I haven't had cravings for junk. My tastebuds are excited by real foods and my body is happier without all the deep fried, sugar coated, full fat junk.

      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!!
