Starting Softs & Cravings



Recommended Posts

I had my lap band on 01/25/11 and I start my soft period in a few days. I already have some ideas of things I can eat such as yogurt, tuna packets, cottage cheese, oatmeal, etc. but i am looking for some more creative ideas. I have been craving italian food, specifically pizza nonstop for weeks now. Any ideas for food that I can actually eat that will curb this craving?

Thank you in advance!

A lot of people have said that baking ricotta cheese covered in spaghetti sauce and mozzarella is yummy. That might help the pizza craving! You could even mix a little pesto in the cheese for extra Italian flair!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
