Hoping to have surgery by July and I loved the boxed bran muffins. Not sweet but good. I too would love to know there was some kind we could have but don't see that happening. I hear it'll be awhile before any carbs are started up again
Those sound good but I can bet my dr would say no. He got on me today about eating banana's. Said they are full of fat. And we all know juices are full of sugar. Guess I'll learn about liquids right before surgery I hope. I've bought only one brand of protein powder from walmart and it's nasty. Wondering how many I'll have to try to find a good one? They get pretty expensive.

Try putting an avocado in a food processor; add about 1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder, a bit of vanilla and either some 'fake' sugar or a bit of maple sugar. Whirl until smooth and creamy. Eat. Enjoy. (adjust any of the ingredients to your taste.......).
Spaghetti Squash Hash Brown
Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked & shredded spaghetti squash (about 1/2 small cooked squash)
- 1 tablespoon oil
- Salt, to taste (optional)
Directions
Heat the oil in a large non stick skillet over medium heat.
Press the water out of the squash with paper towels.
Form little patties (2 tablespoons or so) by pressing the squash firmly between your palms.
Place the patties gently on the warmed skillet and let cook for 5-7 minutes per side. Only flip these once if possible to get the nice browned effect.
Transfer to paper towels to drain, then serve warm. Sprinkle with some salt if desired.

I found that my doing a search for bariatric sleeve or bariatric weight loss surgery recipes, you will come across a lot of sites that have them. I have a new computer and don't have my old links :( otherwise I'd share them.
I also know that Froedtert Hospital bariatric center has some good recipes too
