Salmon (Freshly poached/baked or pouched or canned salmon) hand mixed with various spices, a whole egg and binder of your choice (I use ground almonds, whole chia seed ,flax meal and kale) form into round Patty and pan fry med temp in 1/2 inch or less of oil until golden brown on both sides. Voilà.

Have you ever tried an airfryer? I was surprised how much I like and use it, It's super versatile and easy clean up. IMO, the results are even better than frying. I turned my mom and neighbor on to them, and they love it as well.

I sound like an infomercial, lol!

No I still have not bought one but I don't think this is one of those things that would work in an air fryer, its loose ingredients . can you make falafel or meat balls in an air fryer? If so maybe it would work...

Disclaimer: I pan fry foods, olive oil, grape seed oil, etc. I never intended to give that up, ever...

I actually have made falafel in the airfryer. As long as it will hold together somewhat it should be ok.

Although I do appreciate the fat free aspect of the airfryer, I also appreciate to no mess aspect vs. frying and the "set it and forget it" aspect.

My mom and my neighbor do a lot of wings in their airfryer, they both claim (and I agree) they are superior to pan fried. In fact my neighbor whom used to fry a majority of his meals (chicken, pork chops, etc) told me he has barely turned his stove on in months, and his last gas bill was $8. He is definitely not motivated by the health benefits either.

I will have to look into it. I was interested a while back but the small chamber size turned me away , I have teens and I would have to make batches and batches, so I took a hard pass. But I'm not in willing if the right one came around.

thanks!!!

Yeah, the capacity is a huge downside. For just 1 it's fine, for two, it can be a challenge sometimes, for more than 2 it doesn't work at all. My mom and neighbor have two each, lol, my neighbor talks of getting a third one.

I saw an infomercial for this one while I was in a waiting room. I have to admit I was sucked in and totally want it. Which is ridiculous considering I'm single, no kids and have a 2 oz stomach capacity :lol:

Strawberries yes! Sliced and slightly smashed and tossed and keep in a container in the fridge with the balsamic and swerve!

I finally figured out how, I wanted to from the start, I never did it correctly. This was always supposed to be my name but I left it.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
