Recommended Posts

Boy... You guys are eating GOOD!!

And VegasAngel.. I'm with you.. I hate to cook!!

I can't stand lunch meat anymore.... havn't had bread since Jan. I don't eat Pasta.... so now whats left??

I do like turkey cutlets- I'll use that 30 minute marinade and put them on the grill and then I either have them for dinner or luch thru the week.

Pretty much it's chicken or fish and oh yeah.... SHRIMP!! I loveeee shrimp and it was one of the things I could eat early. ( strange huh>?? )

Lots of good ideas from you all tho:thumbup:

VA, you crack me up!

Today, I took a piece of Boar's Head roast beef (major yummy) with a piece of provolone cheese wrapped up in it. It was yummy and satisfying.

I've been craving roast beef, but wasn't sure I'd be able to get it down and keep it down ... maybe if I got it sliced really thin?

I forgot how much I love provolone cheese.

I definitely need to pick some of that up next time I venture out to the store. I tend to eat the cheese that comes in sticks. I love the low fat colby jack. I think I eat too much dairy.

Today I had a can of slim fast low carb for lunch. Popping open a can was the best I could do today.

Vegas, I get mine sliced really thin and it goes down great. I have been eating it since I was about six weeks out without any problems.

Guess I'll be making a trip to the deli :001_smile: Strange that I am craving red meat, as I am not a big red meat person - I do love my filet mignon; however that is about the extent of my red meat eating ... roast beef just sounds really good for some reason.

Hey Susan,

I have never been a Soup eater; however, knowing that I was going down this trail I started tasting my way around...there are 3 that are very yummy to me.

- Pacific Organic Creamy Tomato & Roasted Red Pepper and Tomato (Publix)

- Imagin Bistro Organic Cuban Black Bean Bisque - This is AWESOME by itself...I usually cut up a fresh tomato, cilantro and maybe a green onion....

You could easily add some of the ham and cheese roll ups to the tomato Soups for more protien...

Hope this helps....

      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.
