Recommended Posts

I have been reading up on some foods for post op, I am still on liquids till next week then mushy. But was thinking about trying this when I can get to the crunch phase. I see these dry roasted and then I have seen you can eat them steamed. Wanted some opinions. They are high in Protein.< /p>

I'm preop still and loved it as an afternoon snack. I've wondered about if it was a sleeve friendly item. I certainly hope so

They are better than most snack foods. I eat them steamed and shelled in salad and I eat the steamed in pod as a snack. I will eat too many of the dry roasted, so I don't buy them.

I love them both steamed and dry roasted. Sometimes I get so busy at work that I can forget to snack like I know I should, so the dry roasted come in handy in a pinch. I keep a small bag in my purse in case I get stuck in traffic, too.

I love them bit some people don't like the fact that they have soy in them.

Specifically, they are soy Beans. Edamame is the Japanese name for them. In Japan, they are the bar snack of choice, kinda like pretzels or peanuts here.

Looks like I will be putting these on my list of food once I can have them! Going to try them both ways.

I buy the frozen bowls of them at costco, 12 to a pack and we steam them and sprinkle with salt and cayenne pepper. Nom nom nom. We used to eat them instead of popcorn while watching a movie, because they take a while to enjoy, and fewer calories and carbs than buttered popcorn.

Can't wait to get to enjoy them again.

I eat these daily for a snack. They also have spicy ones. I eat the steamed as well.

They are awesome, but do not have to be dry. melons are excellent Snacks this time of year, and cucumbers with a tart yogurt are most awesome. Hummus, seaweed, nom, nom. dates pureed and a dollop on a frozen peach sliced thin is just perfect in the heat.

      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.
