I used canned black Beans (dried works but you'll have to soak them forever) any type will do that are unseasoned, I prefer organic, but can't remember the brand (maybe 365 from whole foods?)

Toss in your favorite spices, mine are onion,garlic ,tumeric ancho chili, black pepper, basil, cayenne, parsley, etc

Add a serving of oil continue to stir to coat all beans (I use either macadamias, hazelnut or Olive / whatever I have on hand)

Add boiling Water until covered, stir slightly. Then let it marinate.

Fin.

Oooo, this reminds me. Thank you for the recommendations of cocoa nibs and hemp seed in your yogurt parfaits! I've started eating fancy yogurts of my own. Today was Light and Fit caramel apple yogurt with unsweetened coconut, hemp seeds, chia and a sprinkle of sliced almonds. Thanks for the tips!

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. ;)

I was just jealous of their glory and had to resort to insults to conceal it....

Yeah that's what I figured after I had some time to think it over.

Fresh poached/pouch/canned salmon, 1 egg, 1/4 cup flaxmeal, 1/8 cup chia seeds, 1 cup chopped spinach, various seasoning, dash of soy sauce

Mix, form patty, pan fry in 1/4" oil until browned on both sides

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.
