I saw this infomercial the other day about an Xpress Redi Set Go. Its like a george foreman, only seriously better. It looked like it would be very useful for when I can eat again (lol) and I just wanted to see if anyone already had one and could tell me if it was worth it. I think they are only like $40. If you don't have one, check it out, its pretty cool.

That's the one infomercial where I sometimes linger. If I had more room in my kitchen, I'd get one. Looks like a cool gadget.

I hope someone gives us a review.

No more kitchen gadgets that are bigger than a potato peeler! I just don't have room for them. But I will say that I use the gas grill in the back yard A LOT and what I usually do is when I grill a meal for the family, I will grill 2-3 extra chicken breasts/chopped steaks or whatever for my lunches.

I had seen the informercial of the original one and was doing some looking and what keeps coming up is that the nonstick coating peels off quickly and the lid blisters, some people have it and love it and others hate it, personally I will wait until it hits stores to check it out that way I am not getting the run around or getting charged for a bunch of stuff I don't want or need. It is a cool idea though.

I saw one at Target last night. It was silver, though, and maybe it was a different model. It did have the red-haired cook lady on the box. And it was $24.99. Didn't buy it. Don't have the counter space.

I think the red one is a new version of the silver one. I think the silver one only has the side by side cooking space. Its mostly an omelet maker from what I understand.

I have to admit I bought it and have used it only to make pizza. It was wonderful. I haven't been cooking alot since the band, but I like the gadjet and haven't had any problems with it. Hopeful one of these days I will get in gear and start using it. It came with a recipe booklet that looked good. I also have a small George Foreman and use it to grill chicken.< /p>

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

      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.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        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.
