I am not a Doctor or Nutritionist. So, please follow what they suggest.
I have made this list of meals to show that you can cook for your family and still
eat healthy. Most all meals on my site can be Bari - Friendly.
I do use breadcrumbs in a few of my meals. But, I stay away from the Pastas, rice etc.
Bariatric Friendly is mainly to eat Protein and low carbs or good carbs coming from Veggies,
and NOT TO EAT Pasta, Rice, Breads, Cake/Sweets with gluten-wheat.
So, meals can be made without these ingredients. (also, depending on your workout routine some might need more carbs. but again from good sources not stuff that's made from flour. or pre-packaged foods from supermarkets).
I had the Bariatric Sleeve Surgery on July 26, 2016
Went from size 16W to a size 8. Workout 4x + a week. (always did)
My Diabetes is under control. No meds! My blood count was 8.4 now it's 5.5! Normal!
I use to take Synthriod for a Thyroid problems. Off those meds 2 weeks before surgery and didn't need them afterwards. Off water pills.
I don't take any meds except for my Vitamins. B12, Biotin, multi vitamin and Calcium citrate with Vita D and Magnesium.
I only eat 1 cup or 4 oz at every meal. No more that the palm of my hand or as big
as my Iphone. and No! Not the huge Iphones. lol
I track my meals on My Fitness Pal and stay btw 1000 to 1200 calories a day.
I cook and freeze most of my meals. Easy to grab and microwave.
Especially, when family wants to eat fast food. I have a freezer full of delicious homemade food!
