Saving that recipe! I have almost all the ingredients...just missing the wheat gluten. Sounds yummy.

I thought so too!

I can see chopping it up with some veggies and making a Chinese type stir fry for sure. I need to go shopping at the Whole Foods store. I wish we has a Trader Joe's near by. I am going to try some tofu also. That web site had some recipes using it that looked delicious.

I'll be doing this as well and not telling my husband until AFTER he eats it. LOL

Ugh, maybe not. ? I'll have to see more than just one article but it raises some questions for me.

I'll have to research this more myself. It seems the fermented tofu is good alternative either way. I haven't eaten tofu before ( at least not on purpose) so I have no idea if I will even like it.

We are one and the same. Lol. But I'm definitely making that seitan. It just sounds good. Like I'd be eating it all by itself.

Happy 3 Months Post Op Ya'll! I hope everyone is doing well. Even though my doc follow up isn't until tomorrow, I weighed in anyway. I'm now 206. I went down 12 pounds since our 2 month mark (6 of those in this last week). Crazy huh? So, I took a pic this morning, will upload it sometime during the day. I don't feel like sending it to my computer nor do I feel like logging on my phone...but I'll do it eventually. So, you'll see my stats on the signature/ticker on the bottom of my post. I've lost 60 lbs from my highest weight, 52.4 lbs since starting, and 38 lbs since surgery. The best part of all of this is changing my diet and getting healthier. I'm truly happy about this.

You look fabulous? So nice to see your photos. I am working on mine.

Ok, I downloaded a program to help me with the photos. I realized I did not take a 2 month photo?, I did find a photo of myself from last year around this time to compare. I cannot believe how big I was.
