So tired of eating the same thing daily! any help out there?



Recommended Posts

So here I am almost 6 months post op and the last month has been good I haven't been sick once and I have been eating good but now I am sick of all food again and I don't care 2 eat! I am sick of chicken, pork,shrimp,eggs and cheese. I can not eat 2 much dairy because I am lactose intolerant and the lactaid can only help so much. I enjoy fruit and a few veggies that my stomach will tolerate but I know I need Protein but my protein intake is becoming less again because I am sooooo tired of eating the same old same every day!! any advice or recipes would be very much appreciated! I am also learning 2 tolerate some more seasonings besides salt,garlic powder and onion powder, But I am not very daring when it comes to food as I was sick for te first 4 months after surgery!!

what do you love to eat? There are so many ways to make chicken, pork, etc, but it's a matter of what you love to eat.

What about chicken curry? shredded BBQ chicken? Shredded taco chicken? How about fish? mahi Mahi is nice. Meatloaf. Various flavors of sausages (yummy and convenient).

Mix it up and don't be afraid of seasonings.

Oooo or how about Lamb? Or Venison? Catfish? Veal? How about Duck or goose? That's yummy. MMmmm...ham.

How about a roast?? I take one and cook it all day in a pot add a little carrots and greeen Beans and potatoes..Try cooking a steak medium rare or medium.. I have learned that the less done the steak is the better it is to chew up and go down(it has to be a good steak though).. Also you know that you are not going to learn the foods that you can eat until you actually try them.. Get to sampleling it don't hurt you just don't eat too much of one thing until you know that it wont make you sick.

what about fajitas in beef or chicken or ribs, double yum! would oatmeal with protine mixed in be too much? (I'm still pre-opt till the 29th of this month.) that would be a good question, because I really enjoy oatmeal. egg white omlet with a little bit of ham and tomatoes, or those real bacon bits, that's good too. I make deviled eggs with slenda and put them in the fridge and eat those as a snack.< /p>

Try different seasonings. That's what helps me. When I get bored, I'll go to the store and find a different seasoning, then try it on everything. My latest one...Creole Seasoning. Love it!

I hear the lactose intolerance can just be temporary for some. You might try again off and on to see. A lot of folks really like cottage cheese or greek yogurts with sf puddings or sf syrups added. I know you can google low carb recipes and get a lot of hits or just adjust your old favorite recipes. Good luck!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
