O.T.R. sleever 3,386 Posted October 8, 2012 Smoked turkey leg & collard greens. If that ain't good eatin' I don't know what is. Pre-op it would have also had Mac-n-cheese & a couple rolls. And it would have all been 1 meal. (after lunch & dinner somebodies dog will likely get a bone with about 1/3 of the meat left on it. 3 aroundhky, carolinafan and cmayfield85 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PdxMan 4,292 Posted October 8, 2012 Looks yummy. I had one of those turkey legs at Disneyland. Man, they are good. Just curious ... how much of that will you eat and how long will it take you to eat it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Debra StC 2 Posted October 8, 2012 That does look good! I love greens, any kind. Good choice for lunch and dinner! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StormWarning 194 Posted October 8, 2012 O.T.R- I see you with your collard greens. Do the veggies feel good on your tummy? And When did they start feeling good on your tummy or was you always able to eat them after surgery? I was always a veggie eater before surgery, but now they make me feel nauseated like my tummy is doing flips. meats are the only things I can handle, except for BBQ.

happilysleeved 114 Posted October 8, 2012 I'm still on pureed for another week, but my lunch was still yummy! I had about a 1/4 cup of pulled pork with some broth pureed, and a couple of bites of black-eyed peas pureed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ForMyfamily 84 Posted October 8, 2012 I'll see your turkey leg and greens, and I raise you sirloin skewers and asparagus. I haven't tried a veggie yet since before prop diet. How do they sit compared to meat with the sleeve. Yeah, meat and cheese are already getting boring. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I progressed and got to harder stuff at about 8-10 weeks. Cooked veggies are really a rarity for me. They do cause a bit of gas, but they've always done that.

crystalintville 66 Posted October 8, 2012 I love me some greens and vinegar, yum! I can eat veggies, raw or cooked no problem. For lunch I had about 3 oz of steak and some grilled squash. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Katie713 423 Posted October 8, 2012 BTB...I had forgotten about skewers! Whoop-di-do...I'll be adding that to my reportoire!! Love the steak and veggies, but also love cajun spiced shrimp skewers! OTR...are your routes nationwide or are you traveling in the south? Don't often see smoked turkey legs and greens readily available here in Los Angeles.....My brother drives a big rig from his home base in Dothan, Alabama and he would love that meal and he's not even sleeved.
