What seasonings can you not live without post surgery? Give me a few ideas of seasonings I need to stock up on before I have surgery here in a few weeks. Those things that you use on everything that you cook that makes food taste amazing?

Curry powder, chili powder, Cajun seasoning, garlic and onion powder for almost everything, ginger, pumpkin spice for homemade shakes, once you get to solids again try dukkah seasoning.

I'm also using a southwest chili Protein Powder from the BariatricPal Store for tossing veggies in before baking or sautéing. So good!

Creole seasoning (Tony Chachere's), Everything Bagel (Sam's Choice), Garlic salt with parsley (Lawry's) and dill weed.

I recently bought a bunch of seasonings from Flavor God. Nacho cheese is good on pureed refried Beans and mashed cauliflower. Buttered cinnamon roll is good on applesauce (helps to cover up the taste of the GENEPRO Protein powder I add to is). pizza is good on the famous ricotta bake. I also bought everything seasoning, taco Tuesday, and lemon garlic but haven't tried them yet.

I like sugar-free caramel Syrup in applesauce and tea. And I like to mix chocolate protein powder and PB2 powdered Peanut Butter into Oikos Triple Zero yogurt.

WOW we all are in the same group - Cajun and Mojo

I am a trained chef but for some reason since the surgery go to the two above the most. One other new one in my army of rubs, sauces and spices is Smoked Salts! Never really used it pre Op but now love it

You might want to wait until post op. Your taste buds change a bit. I'm over a month out and sweet smells and sweet foods still make me nauseated.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      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
