I'm able to tolerate brown rice in very very small amounts. I make sure Protein is first, no drinking liquids 30 minutes before or after eating. I am post op May 2008...suffered a blockage and almost died 11 days after my first surgery. Had emergency procedure to fix and love where I'm at right now and would do it all over again!

Haven't had any yet and am 4.5 months out. My doc says it's not very nice to the pouch

I've had about a tablespoon of brown. I would not do more then that just out of fear it puffs up.

Rice = low protein/high carb. I stay away. Try a little quinoa if you're really jonesing for grains...

I make a "salad" with chicken, quinoa, herbs, spices, and citrus juices. I don't eat grains very much, but when I do, it's a small amount of quinoa or a little bit of oats...

This is what I made for a holiday grain dish:

Saute a bunch of chopped shallots/onions in oil and add spices ( I used garam masala, coriander, and cumin). Cook till spices are toasty. Add to cooked quinoa (I used red) with grapefruit juice, chopped pistachios and dried cherries, and chopped parsley. Everyone loved this...

Sounds good. I like quinoa but havent done much with it due to just being my daughter and I and she wont eat it. Sam's club has a big bag of it cheap. Maybe I should try it in meatloaf

      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?

      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.
