I love salad. I know we are supposed to get our Protein in first, then veggies and fruits, then carbs, but I'm wondering how many of you get a chance to eat a nice veggie salad with protein added. Is it tolerable or does it not go down well? I dont see it mentioned much.

I have one couple times a week. I have no problem with it. I use kale & spinach with grilled chicken. Sometimes i add quinoa to it and low fat cheesw.

5 months out and have just started eating my Protein on a bed of spinach with a few carrots and sunflower seeds. I still measure everything out to equal 3.5 ounces. I LOVE salads and this has helped a lot. I eat it everyday for lunch now.

Well, I'm three years out so I eat a lot of salads as well as lots of Protein. I think I was about three months out when I started eating salad.< br>

I eat Cobb salads all the time. My hubby and I share one. I always make sure I get my Protein in before I fill up on lettuce. I love lettuce wraps. I'm almost 6 months out.

salad with Protein is my favourite lunch. I'm 4 months out and know how much I can eat at a sitting, so I measure out my protein and veggies and eat them together.

      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! 😞
