Food Before and After Photos

All these meals look amazing. I eat the most generic boring things at this point it's not even worth taking and posting pics of it. I mainly eat eggs or chicken breast.

So this might be a stupid question, but does everyone save leftovers for subsequent meals or is there a lot of food being thrown out? Seems very wasteful if you're not eating everything prepared.

With meat I'll usually make a portion that will last a few days. At meal time I'll take 1 to 2oz and eat that.

Honestly I’m still trying to figure out left over situation. I throw a lot more food out then I used to. That’s even with multi days of left overs... Especially fruits and veggies because I keep wanting to eat a lot of these or think I’m going to freeze em to do something with later.

I freeze and share foods. I only eat certain fruits and vegetables anyway but they tend to freeze well (even in recipes) and I give away meals to friends too. I'm always sharing meals.

Thanks all, I guess I'll learn what I can do once I go through this myself and adjust accordingly. My plan is to eat the same things I feed the rest of my family so I just take a little at a time.

No offense, it reminds me of the fake vomit you could buy at a joke store back in the day...

Drool. I heart me some PF Changs. Lettuce Wraps and Dan Dan Noodles used to be my absolute faves!!!

The chicken Lettuce wraps aren't a bad choice nutritionally. It's 660 calories, but the serving is pretty huge, 38 g of Protein. And it's great for leftovers. Not that I could take the leftovers ... sigh ....

Most of my pics are meals out, without the ability to take home leftovers.

At home I generally only serve myself what I know I can eat.

If I'm eating out near home, then I usually order leftover friendly food, and take it home. There is still usually a lot of waste though because you can only eat so many meals of the same leftover until you just want to throw it out.

Makes sense, I would imagine you can get sick of the same thing so many meals in a row. Thanks

My heart hurts. How dare you make fun of my glorious scrambled eggs. I worked for minutes on those and they tasted just as boring as every other scrambled egg meal I've made. ;)

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
