looks yummy except for the tomatoes lol I need to add some veggies to my breakfast plates. I have been scrambling a half dozen eggs every few days so I can heat them in a hurry in the AM and I usually grab some cheese or sliced turkey or rotisserie chicken for extra protein.

Are there a lot of healthy foods you can not tolerate after surgery?
Avery's Mom replied to paulamelton's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
So far me either. everything has been smooth. I do get nauseous if I overeat. was up last night with horrible stomach ache due to that very thing! -
YES and it is has HUGE potential to replace lots of other things you love but aren't supposed to eat. like loaded mashed potatoes......used the cauliflower.

I am at the 3 week stall in week 9 LOL I did not gain/lose anything this past week. very frustrated but I also ate Chinese food which probably has me holding water! Chin up...we all lose differently. check with your doctor.

Could very well be hormonal changes, could be depression. I too suffer from anxiety and depression. I take Lexapro daily and Buspirone as needed for anxiety. I have been surprised and how little I need the anxiety meds since surgery. Please reach out to your doctor just to be safe. HUGS to you!

Stress and poor food choices
Avery's Mom replied to amy6152's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
been having similar issues with my 11yr old special needs kiddo. he has been off his meds for two weeks and super aggressive. I have the bruises to prove it. I gained 3lb last week, my first gain since surgery, and I know it is because I have been stress eating. give yourself a break, take a deep breath and get back in the game mama! you got this! -
