Running Out of Options

[Memecita72 21]

I was sleeved on June 27. PS-284, Surgery Date/Post liquid Fast-265, Today-248

I'm in Phase 4 and one week from Phase 5, when I can eat just about anything I want. I've been absolutely perfect up until now and I know it's because I'm ONE week from nuts, raw veggies, garden burgers, and bread that I'm ANXIOUS to eat these things now. I'm also running out of options and getting pretty bored. I had a garlic knot yesterday and it was SOOOOOOOOO good. Tolerated it fine.. .and I had some lettuce today.. just a little. But here's what my day consists of usually.

Breakfast is usually a 30 gram whey isolate shake

lunch is a Lean Cuisine or Healthy Choice (don't know if I'm supposed to be eating these or not but when I don't cook, I have to eat something) or baked chicken and fish and a steamed veggie

Afternoon snack

Applesauce or pudding and another shake

dinner

More fish or chicken

steamed veggies

I'm BORED!!! HELP!

I do like Indian. I haven't tried it since I've been sleeved so I don't know how I'd tolerate it.I'll try it though! Thanks!

Ground turkey or chicken or beef? I love the chicken burgers with carmelized onions from Sam's Club ~ I can't remember the brand name but they are delish! I'm not up to that stage yet as I just entered the pureed stage. :-( I even love those black bean burger patties from Costco! They're very tasty! Also, how about grilling veggies after marinating in low cal Italian dressing? I love grilled veggies, especially zucchini & red peppers with just a tiny drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. Hoping I can eat all that stuff soon! Especially before BBQ'ing season is over!

What about meatballs?

[GreekGirl 20]

_{We usually do grilled chicken and veggies at the beginning of the week. Sliced up squash, zuchinni, and purple onion with balsamic vinegar and then grilled has been great! I also eat saltines with sandwich meat and cheese stacked. String cheese. The weight watchers ones only have 50 cals. Hummus. These are just a few ideas of the food I eat a lot! I know it can be hard to come up with different things.}

My Breakfast today! it's a rolled omelette with spinach, sun dried tomatoes and goat cheese. You can find the recipe on Pintrest! You can put anything you want in it, using the egg recipe ad the base. It reheats really well too! My turkey bacon is 6g Protein per slice from Trader Joe's.

Yep- low carb recipes, or just look under the health and fitness section- lots of valuable

Stuff there. For the omelette recipe search for "rolled omelette".

Thanks for all of the suggestions! I made ground turkey and ground chicken Italian meatballs a few days ago, with wheat Pasta and Newman's Own Marinara! Phoenix79... thanks for posting a pic of your Breakfast. That omelet looks amazing. I don't use my Pintrest account, but you've given me a reason to. Thanks again!
