I know eating is important. Trust me, I do. I’m just not hungry.

i'm sorry i've been rambling. as i've said before i have an appointment at the hospital that did my surgery in a week and they want to have a blood test result so i went to get my blood test taken BUT and i'm quoting my doctor here: " you're still so fat that i can't see and feel your veins. i can't find them" also he said that after he poked both arms with needles and i nearly fainted. i'm now scared to go and try to get my blood test taken again but i'm also scared of going to the hospital without one. HELP.

2 recipes one week. I am NAILING this! Zucchini noodle chicken alfredo AND sugar free cheesecake! My tummy is SOOOO happy.

Here's #whatiatewednesday ! Coffee, ricotta on salami, coffee, water, coffee, taco bowl! I drink A LOT OF COFFEE. Absolutely a lot. Don't even wanna hear it if you have some opinion on that, just saying I do! Decided to do the gallon water challenge for the month and I've gotta say I'm loving it. Knowing I need to drink that much seems to make me more likely to do it. It's silly but it works! Probably going to have a bit more water before bed, but ending on these stats: . 1,128 calories 59g protein 8g net carbs 94g fat 151oz water . I'm of the opinion that if you can exceed your water intake for the day, you can have as much coffee as you want (assuming you're not going over carbs or cals). Do your own thing people! Whatever makes you and your body happy is what you should do 💖 . . . #weightloss #weightlossjourney #wls #vsg #vsgfamily #wlscommunity #weightlosstransformation #wlslife #vsgcommunity #vsginstacrew #vsgjourney #bariatric #bariatricsurgery #bariatricbabes #bariatriclife #weightlosssurgery #weightlossmotivation #extremeweightloss #weightlossprogress #bodytransformation #weightlossstory #keto #ketogenic #vsgeats #vsgfood

::story of my life::

This weeks meal prep! I baked three chicken breast. One is plain, one is taco, and one is pizza. I also baked a few pork chops! And to go with I have squash and zucchini! So each meal is 2oz protein 1oz vegetables. I ran out of squash and zucchini so some days I will have the sweet peas. For snacks I have protein bars, edamame, p3 packs, etc. I will choose in the moment. #vsgfamily #vsgsupport #vsgcommunity #vsgjourney #vsgpostop #vsg #vsgeats #wls #wlslife #wlsfood #wlsfamily #wlsjourney #wlscommunity #wlssupport

Oven Baked Chicken Shawarma with Sautéed Onions & Peppers on top of Mediterranean Cauliflower Rice with a dollop of Garlic Sauce So after eating like crap for the last few months I decided to start the year off on a better note meal prep... the only recipe not listed below is for the onion and peppers... I just heated up some oil, threw in the onions and peppers, seasoned with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Sautéed until tender with bit of a snap. Oven Baked Chicken Shawarma - 3 chicken breasts, boneless and skinless 2 tsp smoked paprika ½ tsp turmeric 2 tsp cumin powder ½ tsp cinnamon 2 tsp ground black pepper 1 tsp salt juice from 2 lemons ½ cup olive oil 1 tsp red pepper flakes 1 large onion, sliced fresh parsley for garnish 4 cloves garlic, minced Directions - In a large bowl add the lemon juice, olive oil, salt, cumin, black pepper, paprika, turmeric, red pepper flakes, cinnamon, garlic, and whisk well. Add the chicken and toss making sure the chicken is well coated in the marinade. Cover with plastic wrap or foil and refrigerate for at least an hour. The longer the meat marinates the more flavour you'll have. Preheat oven to 425 F degrees. Add sliced onion to bowl with chicken and toss well so that the onion is fully coated in the marinade. Add everything to a 9x13 baking dish. I didn't have much marinade leftover since the chicken absorbed most of it, so that's why I added everything to the baking dish. Spread everything evenly over the baking dish. Bake in the oven until the chicken is browned and crisp on the edges, for about 40 to 45 minutes. If you want the chicken crispier on top, turn the broiler on to high and broil for 3 minutes until nice and crispy on the outside. Let the chicken rest for about 5 minutes, then slice it into bits. Garlic Sauce - 1 cup vegetable oil ⅓ cup lemon juice 6 cloves garlic, peeled 1 egg white 1 tsp salt Directions - Add all the ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth, it should take 1 to 2 minutes. This recipe will make about 1½ cups of sauce, refrigerate leftover sauce. Mediterranean Cauliflower Rice - 2 cups cauliflower, roughly chopped into 2" pieces half an onion 1/2 tsp garlic powder 1/2 tsp cumin 2 pinches sumac coconut oil or olive oil salt to taste Directions - Pulse cauliflower a few times in the food processor until 'rice-like' and transfer to a bowl until you’re ready to cook it. Heat the oil until glistening over medium heat, then throw in your onions and garlic, cooking until they’re aromatic and softened. Then add your raw cauliflower, stirring to coat in oil and onions. Add spices and sautee a few minutes longer, until everything is evenly combined and heated through.
