Adding Foods

[cjoyce 187]

I'm allowed to add 1oz fruit/veg after eating my 2oz Protein now....I can't even eat the full 2 oz of meat so I am not being able to really add veggies yet (which I would prefer over meat right now)...will this eventually change and ill be able to hold more? Seems impossible right now...7 weeks post op.

Yes, it will change. Concentrate on getting your Protein ( I know it's hard ) and don't worry so much about the fruit & veggies.

It really does get better every week. Just don't overdue anything and you'll be fine.

Congrats and good luck

Hey! I'm 8 weeks and can't get the Protein in without the help of sakes, which are sooo gross!! I'm starting to eat salmon for Breakfast to start off with a few extra. Most people have recommended unflavored protein and put it in cottage cheese, Soup or pudding etc. it will help you double up. I'm not a big meat eater, so I'm working on alternative ways like Beans to get protein.
