well everything with my surgery has been going well so far... ive lost 20lb in my first 3 wks!! which i am a little excited about lol. I am currently staying in the dominican republic for the first 6 months after my surgery.. reason being I can follow up with my doctor and also to be close to my father.
well... i havent really been following recipes, now that i started eating "real foods" Ive just been modifying it. for example.. I have my chicken cook with sofrito and adobo I just ask them to limit the salt and not to use oil. The chicken soups and sancochos are the best!! lol even if i dont get to eat the meats yet. and I do take the beans they make at home and just stick them in the blender.. como una crema de habichuelas.. i am still in an early phase so i dont have much options but eggs, chicken, and veggies.. for me leaving the rice hasnt been that hard. i think i am adapting well to eating healthier foods.. Ive learned within this process that the stomach doesnt distinguish taste(lol) the mouth does.. so regardless if you put a piece of fried chicken or baked... the stomach feels the same : full!. lol point is as soon as i start eating ill get you some yummy recipes!
Orlando in the house!! Welcome.. I am one year out and do not regret my decision..I am cuban, but girl I am more PR/dominican because i ws born and raised in Brooklyn!!

I am looking for weight loss surgery recipes including "our type" of foods.. I might try to start a form page with recipes with carribean food.. whenever i post asking for latina food they send me mexican.. there are some mexican foods i like but i am looking foods that we are used to but modified for our new lifestyle of eating..
girl stay encouraged!!
