Thai wrap (some carbs)



Recommended Posts

My wife and i had a wonderful light fresh spring roll meal this evening for dinner at home. Very tasty and healthy.

This is more for post ops that are further along because carbs are approximately 9 carb / 35 cal per rice wrap. If you want to eliminate carbs completely as low carb post op, use a lettuce wrap instead of a rice wrap.

Wrap filling Ingredients:

poblano pepper

Thinly sliced cucumber

Shredded carrot

3 prawns, large shrimp or chicken

Thai basil leaf

Cilantro

For post ops, Wrap 1/4 cup of ingredients into a Thai rice wrap, fresh Thai spring roll o lettuce wrap ( if you want to cut carbs).

Add 2 tbsp Peanut Butter sauce for dipping wrap into.

Peanut Butter wrap ingredients:

light coconut milk,

lime juice,

Fish sauce,

brown sugar,

Thai chili paste

The following is my wife's portion for dinner. I had 2 wraps with 2 tbsp peanut butter sauce. It has a little kick. Yummy!!

Enjoy! Let us know if you like it.

      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.
