Why Trashy Eats?

Years ago there was a community on a social forum with this theme.  Recently post op (RNY July, 2007) I was intrigued. I was TIRED of eating shakes, yogurt and sweet things all the time. I needed SAVORY, yet so many savory things were hard for me to digest or too large because my new tiny tummy could only hold so much food. Because I love food, I got to be creative, to think of preparation of a meal (even if it was composed of leftovers, pulverized to mush and/or only a tiny serving) as part of the process of fueling my body.  The community wasn't about "bad" food, it was about making food flavorful, different, and "bariatric friendly".  The community was support for the sometimes strange things we eat in order to keep our protein levels up, ways to change up foods to make them better for our new way of eating, and often a place to find a quick recipe or ideas on what to do with all those leftovers; because with a tiny tummy there are always leftovers. So, welcome to Bariatric Trashy Eats, I hope you find something here that inspires you.
