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

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
