You all know I talk about weighing, measuring, journaling your food and planning and preparing it for long term success after weight loss surgery. It sounds like a lot of work to many of you, right? It really isn’t though.
Wherever you choose to get your recipes, I encourage you to make it your business to eat REAL FOOD that tastes good AND provides you with the nutrition required to get to your goal and maintain it.
The calorie load on this cake was 6,193 calories. Oh MY! I had not even thought about this as I was measuring and mixing. I was having too much fun in the making.
I have a busy life. You have a busy life. We all have obligations that require our time and effort and yet we all still need to eat. Right? I have found a way that works for me to streamline some of my meal planning and prep.
I love food, I love to eat, and I love to write. My love of food has transitioned into a way of being since I had my Lap Band surgery in 2004. That love has resulted in our newly published cookbook.
So I am a Weight Loss Surgery patient, I eat burgers (black and blue burgers are my fave) and pizza, and maintain my 270 pound weight loss, my tool is in perfect working order and my new cookbook, co-authored with Wendy Campbell is at the publisher.
Over the past 11 years I have morphed from a junk food junkie to a picky foodie. I only eat food that tastes good. If it doesn’t taste good I don’t want it.
There are so many ways to use one simple high protein low calorie product and wind up with a sweet or a savory food or condiment. Which ones are you going to try?
What I love about this is it’s real food, not canned, and can be altered slightly for different tastes. I can eat it over a handful of baby spinach and sliced cucumbers, or eat it right out of the container, or make a lettuce wrap with it.
Folks often ask me what I eat and when I tell them they then ask for the recipe. Today I will share a recipe with you step by step for an amazing breakfast.
I have said many times before that I am NOT on a diet although I track my calories and protein. I do that to live in awareness so that if the scale goes up or my clothes feel snug I know why.
