Cooking for your family while restricting is just frustrating. What do you mean I’m pouring my soul in making the masterpiece, and I don’t even get to eat it. Anyway, I’ve eaten like 200kcal, if not less, but I think I’m done for the day. I want to save cals for tomorrow I have an oral exam, and I don’t want to faint due to my lack of energy / sleep and stress, so I’ll probably omad before my oral, maybe around like 500 kcal

Details of What/When/How

The last typed post already told you the why of it all. Now I'll tell you more about the what, the when and the how.

I'm having a gastric sleeve surgery done.

For those that don't know, the best way to describe it is this:

Your stomach, when full, is the size of a football (North American football for my international followers). After the surgery, which is completed with robotics, it will be the size of a banana. I will lose 60% of the stomach. I will be able to hold 1 cup (240g) of food at a time. This must be split evenly between proteins, veggies and carbs.

I have lost 41.7 lbs since starting the program back in November 2022. It doesn't seem like a lot but think of it like this: some old vacuum cleaners (the bag style ones) weigh ten pounds. I lost 4 vacuum cleaners worth of pounds.

That figure doesn't even mention how much I lost since I started dating my now-wife. She helped me drop from 600 down to 527, then the weight management team helped me drop from there down to where I last weighed in at 479. That is accounting also for weight gains because, let's face it, I'm not perfect and I messed up a bit here and there.

My insurance approved my surgery and my date is October 2nd, 2023.

I start what's known as a liver shrinking diet on Monday, September 18th. That means the following:

At LEAST 64 fl oz of water (flavored is okay under 10 kcals) per day

2-3 cups of low sodium broth per day (beef or chicken)

Cucumber and celery (as much as I can stand of either)

4x Protein shakes (over 15g of protein and under 200kcals) per day

Anything not listed is not permitted. I'm on that until surgery day. Oh, and no salt, even as a seasoning. My biggest issue will be the cucumber. I've never liked it. The celery I can do maybe in the broth? Will it lose any nutrients when cooked in the broth? I should research that.

Bye for now.

Someone tell me why everything in the store that’s good is also 300+ kcal per 100g. Tell me how I hit my daily intake with one meal, one snack, and four non-water drinks.

Recipe: 200kcal peanut noodles

i wish i had taken a picture of them lol but they were so good!

so you just cook the vermicelli rice noodles until they’re soft and drained them and set them aside. in the same pan brown 10 chopped peanuts, chilli powder, ginger powder and some garam masala powder in the oil spray then add the vinegar. then just stir the noodles in and add a teaspoon of satay sauce.

they’re literally the best thing ever if you like nutty and spicy food!

(for the measurements i used 40g vermicelli rice noodles and just a pinch of each spice)

Nov 27th

I thought I binged so much today, turns out I'm still under 2000kcal. I can do better tomorrow, plus it's raining out, cold, and almost midnight and I don't feel like walking around the city.

I was doing so well until I made potato leek soup to use up the rest of my veggies from Thanksgiving. I wasn't planning on eating any but my legs were getting shaky and I still need to study tonight. Then of course I had to go and have a roll to sop up the rest of the soup which ended up being 4 rolls. On top of that, my roommate and I made eggnog (with rum ofc) which is well over 200kcal/serving...and I had two.

The soup is actually great for the winter and can be low cal if you make it like more of a stew rather than a creamy, puree. It's just 3 leeks, 1.25 lb potatoes, 1 onion, 6 cups broth/stock, 1/2 cup dry white wine (use more if you're using cooking wine), and whatever seasoning you like. I add cayenne pepper and it's delicious. The recipe I followed said this makes about 6-8 servings, but you can definitely stretch it out. Plus, any recipe I've found for potato leek says ~130-150kcal/serving, and that's when people use heavy and/or sour cream.

I normally skip breakfast or just have a piece of fruit and then eat small portions throughout the day, but I've been binging at night sometimes. I think from now on I'm going to make soups for my dinners each week that way I can still eat but not actually be eating anything that might trigger a binge (*ahem* bread).

Nothing stacks up to guilt-free pancakes. 😋 The recipe is suitable for step 3+ and it is only 200kcal. Ingredients: - 60g plain flour⁣ - A pinch of salt⁣ - 1 small free-range egg⁣ - 150ml skimmed milk⁣ - Spray oil⁣ - Ground cinnamon for dusting⁣ (for the apple filling) ⁣ - 2 medium dessert apples, peeled, cored and sliced or cubed⁣ - 1 tbsp water⁣ - Artificial sweetener, to taste⁣ - A pinch of ground cinnamon⁣ - Grated zest and juice of ½ orange⁣ ⁣ Method: ⁣ 1) Sift the flour and salt into a bowl and beat in the egg. Add the milk, a little at a time, beating until the batter is smooth. Leave to stand for at least 10 minutes.⁣ ⁣ 2) Meanwhile, cook the apple and water in a saucepan over a low to medium heat, until the apple is soft but keeps its shape. Add artificial sweetener to taste and gently stir in the cinnamon, orange zest and juice.⁣ ⁣ 3) Lightly spray a small non-stick frying pan with oil and place over a medium heat. When the pan is hot, add one-quarter of the batter. Tilt the pan and swirl the batter around to cover the base evenly. Cook until the pancake is golden brown and set underneath, then flip it over and cook the other side.⁣ ⁣ 4) Slide the pancake out of the pan onto a plate and keep warm while you cook the remaining pancakes in the same way.⁣ ⁣ 5) Divide the apple filling between the pancakes and roll up or fold over. Serve immediately, dusted with cinnamon.⁣ 📸 @one2onedietaustralia ⁣ #one2onediet #healthypancakes #pancakesrecipe (at 𝖣𝖨𝖤𝖳 𝖬𝖴𝖬 𝖱𝖤𝖯𝖤𝖠𝖳) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cd-MxBwts48/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
