lunchables. ...



Recommended Posts

Have any of you ever thought about taking these to work for lunch or a snack? The ones with the turkey cheese and crackers and small piece of candy? I thought about this and just eating the meat and cheese cuz it's portioned perfectly for a sleeve. And they very cheap at the grocery stores also.

Here's my opinion of lunchables: Way expensive for low-quality food... throw a piece of meat into a zip lock bag with a cheese stick and save a bunch of money.

Read the label for calories, sodium, preservatives and fat. Crap food. Since we can eat so little, make it count nutritionally.

I agree and the meat and cheese in a lot of those have extra preservatives and imitation cheese. It's just as easy to put a slice of meat and a slice of cheese in a ziplock.

Get a bento box. Cook yourself a turkey breast, chicken breast/thigh or ham steak and cut it up. Ditto for some real cheese (vs. "cheesefood") - slice it yourself. Throw in some blue berries for good measure. Bam, you have your very own do-it-yourself lunchable with a ton more nutrition. AND I promise that it will taste way better!!!!

I think occasionally it would be fine. Not the best quality of food, but as long as you don't have them all the time i don't see any harm in it.

The actual lunchable tray is perfect for sleevers, for sure.

      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.
