i do a lot of stir frys - chicken/pork with LOTS of veggies, all kinds.

i use either spaghetti squash / brown rice / saba noodles as replacement of the "white starches".

one pot meals in a crockpot (do a search on crockpot here) are also very easy.

This is a fabulous recipe. I served it at a dinner party. It's super easy (much easier than the title sounds) and it tastes great!

Whisk the following ingredients in a small bowl

  • 1 t wasabi paste (can find it on the ethnic food aisle in most grocery stores)
  • 2 t light soy sauce
  • 2 packets Splenda
  • 1 T lemon juice
  • 1 large clove garlic, minced

Heat fry pan on the stove on a medium heat. Once the pan is hot, spray pan with cooking spray.

Dip the 1 pound salmon (I have mine cut into serving-sized filets) in the mixture, and put it in the pan. Spoon the remaining mixture on top of each piece of salmon. Cook on each side for 4 or 5 minutes until cooked to your liking.

It's great just like that. If you want to make it extra special, you can make a Creamy Wasabi Sauce to eat with it. Just mix the following in gredients together and serve on the side:

  • 1/4 c fat free sour cream
  • 1/4 c low fat mayonaise
  • 1 1/2 t light soy sauce
  • 1/2 packet splenda
  • 1 t wasabi paste

I promise it's really easy and people will be very impressed! Better yet, 4 oz of salmon prepared has 199 calories and 24 g Protein. 1/4 of the creamy wasabi sauce has 37 calories.

(It'sfrom the Eating Well After Weight Loss Surgery cookbook)

      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

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
