Grilled fish and peanut butter....



Recommended Posts

Just a question for all your banders have been around the block for awhile. Will grilled fish be on the menu ever again as well as Peanut Butter? ? I would kill right now for a bowl of oatmeal with peanut butter and a banana mixed up in it... and if I can't have that ever again...I may just have dr b take this band right out...lol...ok..noooo..I won't...but I sure as hell will pout about it for a loooonnng time!

I eat Peanut Butter all the time on a spoon or on a piece of cheese or on a banana cant do the oatmeal though it make me hungreir, to many carbs , all I do is crave more carbs if I eat oatmeal and it goes through my band to quickly, not solid enough

Wanna hear something gross? I read your thread title and said "Yummmmm".

I eat fish and I eat Peanut Butter. I think PButter mixed into your oatmeal is a great and wonderful and healthy and yummy way to get in some good flavor AND Protien AND Fat (which you need with your limited calories post-op) Guacamole is good mushy, too.

Are you officially on mushies yet? Or still full liquids? If you can blend your Oatmeal with PButter to smoothie consistency (if you could suck it up through a straw) you could definately do it. YES! to Peanut Butter!!!!!!!!

Wait for mushies on fish (I would, anyway). tuna salad very wet with dressing is a great mushy. Blend and mash and chew to goo and eat it!!

Grilled fish is DEFINATELY on the list. I suppose you could even top it with PButter?

Well my doc told me to have alittle Peanut Butter for the protien. And for some reason oatmeal leaves me satisfied for a while. But its true to many carbs. Maybe try the wieght control kind its really good and it comes in bannana bread flavor i thought it was good!!!

LOL...Jack you are such a treasure!! Ughhh...no I wasn't actually considering putting it on my grilled fish!!!

But Kathy on the other hand...she may just be twisted enough to try it...(kathy you know I am totally teasing you!)

Yes, I on liquids of some sort for the next 4 weeks *sigh* and then I will be onto mushies...where I will get my oatmeal. I just wanted to make sure I could possibly eat some of my favs again.

Vegemite (Pronounced vegie-might) is an Australian delicacy - misunderstood by the rest of the world. It's yeast extract vegetable spread thing - a spread for bread, toast and crackers. It's completely black, similar to but not the same as marmite and promite (which may only be English, dont know if you have those there). It has a taste that is impossible to describe but is something all Aussie kids grow up with, most other people recoil in disgust at the look and the smell of it.

I love it. So really have no business recoiling in horror at Peanut Butter and cheese, or Peanut Butter and oatmeal or that latest one banana and mayo, eeeeew, LOL!

The jingle goes:

We're happy little vegemites as bright as bright can be

we all enjoy our vegemite for Breakfast lunch and tea

our mummy says we're growing stronger every single week

because we love our vegemite

we all enjoy our vegemite

it puts a rose in every cheek!

Oh my gosh, I have to tell my vegemite story!

I have a good friend who is an Aussie, and when he came to visit, naturally he brought his jar of vegemite. So one day we're making breakfast, and I'm putting jam on my toast, and he's getting out his vegemite...and I asked him what it tasted like. So he offers me the jar and I swipe a finger around the rim and get a little, and pop it in my mouth....and tried to be very polite! Ick!

I had to tell him I didn't think his mum must have liked him very much to feed him that! ;-) No offense intended to the vegemite lovers of the world!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
