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

Almost NY style bagel! it had so much cream cheese that I had to remove most of it. I only ate half.

YES! Deli's, coffee shops (etc) put WAY too much cream cheese on bagels! I thought I was the only one that had this problem. haha

I literally could make 3 bagels with all the cream cheese they use, I scrape most of it off. Even when I ask for light it is still way too much.

I haven't had a bagel since surgery, now I want one. haha

Yum!!! Reminds me of the bagels I used to get from the food truck when I was in college. Smothered in cream cheese, and I would eat the whole thing! LOL!! I miss that young metabolism!

Looks so good. I would also add some lox, capers and a squeeze of lemon juice. Ok, now I gotta go buy some bagels. I ran out last week.

Chicken and... waffles??

The waffles are mostly neutral like any other bread. But the dish is a savory sweet combination when you add maple syrup. My non vegan daughter refused to try it with the syrup and vegan daughter refused the vegan version altogether so this might be a dish fading into obscurity ?.

Some info on this dish:

I love love love avacodo!! I’ve never had avacodo with an egg?!
Fried or over easy eggs are the only eggs I can eat. Scrambling post sleeve gross me out. Smell of them cooking and the taste.
