This is the basic recipe I use with a few changes. I purchase frozen cauliflower rice from Trader Joes. I have made it myself with the food processor in the past and it is just a PITA and gets EVERYWHERE and my poor little dog goes haywire :rolleyes:. I also use frozen stir fry veggies from Sams instead of peas and carrots. I also add extra Water chestnuts because I love them. Super easy and really good....husband loves it as well. Next time I am going to use shrimp instead of chicken.

This looks fab! I can't wait to try it. Ty for the recipe!! ((Hugs))

Salmon croquettes

*Disclaimer: these are fried, so no way to estimate the real cal count but each one has ~15g of protein

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

If you really wanted to you could weigh the frying oil before and after, to know how much was absorbed. I personal am good with guesstimating, but just in case you're not.

This is the type of thing an airfryer is great at cooking, and also reheating. :)

I'm feeling like I'm doing the puzzle from the cartoon pages: Find 5 differences between the pictures! I'm not sure there's 5! Looks good, though!

All of your foods look so good! This is not as interesting but this is breakfast: 1 scrambled egg, 3 turkey sausage links, strawberries and bananas...the restriction is real and I’m happy 😃

I finally have a before/after. :) Sometimes I can't "edit" myself cuz something looks so good. I usually only put what I know will be eaten on my plate and weigh everything. That way I have a clean/healthy plate without leftovers. But I served 3.5oz of salmon + 3.5oz broccoli + 1oz ea avocado and Tomato. (Ended up finishing the avo, cuz I didn't want to throw it out or waste it.)

Ended up eating 3oz salmon, 2oz broccoli, 1oz avo, 1/2oz tom--pretty much what I always eat (by weight). LOL. There is comfort in predictability. I'm a little over 8 months out.

      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! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
