One of mine and my families favorite chicken recipes is to throw some chicken breasts in the crockpot, still frozen. Then I add in a can of low-fat cream of chicken Soup, low-fat cream of mushroom soup and low-fat cheddar cheese soup. I let it cook for eight hours. It is simple and delicious. My family loves to use the soup combination to pour over mashed potatoes as it really makes a tasty gravy.

Susan I like that recipe too.

one of my favorite places to get recipes is those little recipe booklets in the check out lines at the grocery stores.

They are usually quick, fast and easy . also i found this site the other day and she has a TON OF band friendly recipes.

Sometimes you have to just try these recipes see if you like then , like the ingredients and go from there.

My favorite thing right now is: Use those frozen chicken breasts in the bag, they have lots of added Fluid, when cooked they stay very moist. I put two frozen chicken breasts on the pan of my toaster oven and cover with foil. 20-25min at 350. They are wonderfully moist because they've been steamed under the foil. Shred the chicken a little in a bowl and put some of your favorite barbeque sauce on them. I put this on half of a well toasted whole grain english muffin with a sprinkle of sharp chedder reduced fat cheese. Back into the toaster oven or micro to get all warm and gooey. Pair with some veggies, cooked or fresh and you've got a very well balanced meal. Lovely lunch or dinner. I'll eat the chicken cold too. It lasts me for several days of quick lunches.

well i'm a fan of homemade quesadillas and i was thinking about trying a new thing when i'm on phase 4 diet.

grill one chicken breast.

shred it then put some taco seasonings and Water in a pan -use the packets directions- cook for 5 minutes.

then drain some of the sauce off the chicken then plate it.

If you like black olives sprinkle a few on top of the chicken.

Sprinkle some low fat colby/jack blend or your favorite cheese on top of the chicken.

If you like low fat sour cream then put a dab on your plate and just stick the prongs of your fork into it and take a bite instead of smothering it.

Voila no tortilla chicken quesadillas.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
