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!

      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.
