hey guys sorry to post this again but I think that thread is very buried

Do you guys eat a lot of tuna? I actually really like it and it's a good source of Protein. But sometimes just tuna salad can get boring. I'm always trying different ways to make it more interesting. Here are some things I came up with.

Each recipe uses one can of tuna and is usually at least two lunches for me. Also my measurements are my best guess as I don't usually measure things. You can always add more or less of an ingredient.

Southwestern tuna

1 tablespoon corn, 1 tablespoon black Beans, 1 tablespoon diced red onion, 1 tablespoon rotel, 1 teaspoon mayo

Asian style tuna

1 tablespoon sliced green onion, quarter teaspoon grated ginger, 1 teaspoon soy sauce. I didn't add any mayo to this one but you can add some if you want it to be moister (is moister a word?)

Mediteranian tuna

1 tablespoon sliced kalamata olives, 1 teaspoon chopped dill, 1 tablespoon diced cucumber, 1 tablespoon greek yogurt, a small squeeze of lemon juice

taco tuna

a little bit of shredded lettuce,1 tablespoon of diced canned tomatoes and 1 tablespoon of the juice, 1 tablespoon diced red onion, pinch or two of taco seasoning to taste

tomato basil tuna

1 tablespoon diced tomatoes, 1 tablespoon chopped basil, 1 teaspoon mayo

lemony tuna

1 tablespoon capers, a good squirt of lemon juice, a pinch of lemon pepper, 1 teaspoon of mayo

Try using a little ginger and mustard. Way less fat than mayo and I think it tastes great.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
