Finding myself:

Hi all! I don't know about the rest of you, but I am finding myself not wanting to eat....and when I want to eat....it isn't good. I don't have an appetite for anything that I should have, and when I eat protein I am nauseous for about 15 - 20 min after I eat. I also need help getting some better protein recipes....we have always eaten a lot of carbs, which I am trying my hardest to stay away from. Any ideas, please! ~~em

Hi Emily, Check to see if your library has or can get: "Eating Well After Weight Loss Surgery" I took it out before my surgery and liked what I saw, so I bought myself a copy. It has TONS of what look like great recipes for proteins using eggs, different meats and desserts, etc. It's worth looking in to for new recipes. I looked back at it last week and bookmarked a ton of pages to try in the next week. I just have to decide what to make and get the right ingredients for it! I know how you feel! paula

Paula, Do you know who the author of that book is by any chance? Thanks, Christine

I bought this book on Amazon.com last week...I am just waiting for it's arrival. Can't wait to read it.

How about the lady who runs that bariatriceating.com site? I've bought the sampler protein shake pack, and so far they're really good. I noticed she has a recipe book, sugar free marinades and all sorts of stuff. Shannon
