Like weight loss before and after photos but of your new diet !

I'm especially interested in before and after meal photos (take a pic at the point you feel restriction) but it can be of recipe substitutions, your refrigerator/pantry/shopping cart/etc

Been a voyeur on this thread for a while but today I baked these great tuna, sweet corn & sweet potato frittata muffins again. They’re so yummy & freeze really well.

I threw in a stalk of finely chopped celery. Was going to add some capsicum too but it had died in my fridge.

About 100cals each, 9g protein, 8g carbs & 1.3g fat.

Found the recipe in the guide to weight loss surgery nutrition my surgeon gives all his patients.

Breakfast this morning: scrambled eggs with a side of Dominican salami and cheese. Ate two slices each and one bite of the eggs. My bf ate the rest.

What kind of cheese is that? Yum!

Its one meant for cooking ☺️ I usually fry it with a little 0 cal. olive oil spray. I tried it in the foodi not too long ago and it cooks well in there too!

@Arabesque thanks for the recipe! I'm making these tomorrow sans the oats cuz I'm a little carb-phobic, LOL

Id have to get back to you on that lol I've never tried Halloumi cheese before. I did a google search and this is what I found:

I'm adding Halloumi to my grocery list! I'm curious now

I loooooove Dominican salami and cheese made just like that. My husbands family likes to eat that with yucca. It’s sooo good. Sadly, I like in Kansas and I haven’t been able to find either of those for sale here. We have to wait until someone goes to either New York, California, or Florida to get some. But it’s such a treat when we do get it!

Omg yessss its delicioussss. I love it with yucca too and the purple vinegar onions on top! I will say though, my preference is eating it with mangu.

Awww that stinks! Have you tried checking Walmart? I wonder if there was some way you could get them shipped cold.

New York has some great spots for Dominican breakfast. I live in RI and I'm lucky because there are like 5 or 6 Dominican corner stores within walking distance from my house that sell the ingredients and sell it cooked.

Pre-op I would go to one of the stores before heading to work and order a small container of mangu con los tres golpes (mangu with the 3 hits). $5 bucks for two pieces of cheese, two pieces of salami, two eggs, the mangu, and onions! All hot and freshly made at 7 am. It would fill me up for the whole day lol. Im glad im able to make it a little healthier now but its definitely a dish that needs to be eaten in moderation.

That sounds delicious! We don’t have anything like that here. I have tried Walmart and they don’t sell it here. It’s crazy cause when I was in Miami a while ago, they sell it at their Walmart but not here. It’s probably a good thing for me though because I like it so much and would probably go overboard with it.

LOL good for you for stopping (am assuming you were full)...I would've just finished that last bite off regardless!

Same here for some reason even if I'm full I "have too" finish the last bite

It looks small but it was about 1/5 the wrap left

I never eat beyond my capacity no matter how small the bite is... Recipe for disaster
