Whats for dinner tonight?

[jodimc 117]

9g of fat in the oh yeah shakes. Is that too high? (I try to stay under 5g per serving)

[KCItalianGirl 24]

I originally thought 9 grms fat seemed high, but I'm not eating any fat so figured the Protein out weighed the fat.

Just remember' date=' if your full, you do NOT have to finish it all. We are so used to needing to finish what's on our plates. Do measure but its okay not to finish. It's a new thing to get used to. Good luck.

You know what gets me... Yes I know, stop when you're full, but how do you ever know if you're getting enough Protein?

Probably 3 sea scallops, pan fried in a non stick pan, half a small potato and a few sugar snap peas.

Couple saltine crackers, 1/4c Tomato Soup, 1/4 grilled cheese.< /p>

Made buffalo chicken tenders . Found the recipe on the Hurley medical center website when I was googling gastric bypass friendly recipes. Had 34 g of Protein per piece and I could eat about 1/4. Easy to make and really good. My focus now has been recipes the whole family can eat. That's pouch friendly

Hubby got me a cup of broccoli and cheese Soup, only had 4 spoons of it till i felt full. Also had mrs vickis vinegar and sea salt chips. Ate about 10 of them. Stuffed now. I am having problems with the Protein Shakes. Just about any of them. The smell nauseates me. Mostly have used Unjury. Got muscle milk light that says no milk. Well it still cramps my stomach. When can we have salad i miss salads,

I'm a single mom to although a 16 yr old. I suggest simple dinners for your son. Your senses will be off and you might not be able to stand some smells. The real non processed breast chicken fingers. Soups, grilled cheese (for him) tuna or chicken salad sandwiches if he likes them. Individual pizzas like the Digiornos. Something that is easy for u to make. Does he like shrimp poppers, sandwiches w veggies. Many good skillet meals for him out there. But much of my suggestions, you can't have :-( Sorry I couldn't come up with more the two of you can eat together. I guess what you could do is getting him to a Protein based diet that way when you're on regular food again about a month out, it will be easier.

Oh no, short term we're good, I've got all kinds of quickie stuff in the freezer ready to roll little effort from me (honestly I could give him Cereal every night and he'd be thrilled!!). I'm thinking down the road once I'm back on regular-ish foods. Thanks for the ideas though!

I had steak, yes steak to see if I could and yes, I can! I ate about 1/2 with mushrooms and I feel fine, I thought I'd be vomiting or feeling over stuffed but to my surprise, I'm good.... Is that normal??

[Ms. Mandy 14]

Omg! Had steak tonight ... It was good going in and bout 15 minutes later ... Not so good

Throwing up after surgery hurt even worse than normal ...
