I need some meal ideas..I am so burnt out on everything I've had so far. chicken has been my go to food, but I need different things or different ways to cook chicken?

I'm 5 weeks and 2 days post op, so I can eat solids now. Any ideas? I really want the weight to start coming off more! I think my stall just broke, down 3 more lbs but I want more to come off! Thanks!

Gastricsleeve4me - not sure of the website name, but it is a blog with some great recipes. She is also a member of this forum.

Also, google "the world according to eggface" she has good stuff too.

My family practically lives off the Emilybites meals. I never knew that healthy food didn't have to suck. These are my go to recipe sites. Many of the meals are good for non-ops too. My wife is non-op and has lost 51 pounds since April this year eating from these recipes. And I'm down 105 now.

Good luck

Especially look at the "cupcake meals" on Emilybites. They are really good. 1 cupcake will either make a whole meal for a newly sleeved person, or be more than you can eat. My non-op wife and I have some form of cupcake meal for lunch everyday. I spend an hour on Sunday baking them, then we have lunch all week long and don't have to think about it. I either pop them in the microwave for 45 seconds, or if I'm in a hurry or on the road, they're even good cold.

Good luck

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
