tsxo821 3 Posted February 23, 2013 I'm running out of ideas of things to eat. I don't like seafood' date=' and I feel like I'm eating the same things over and over and that's always been a pet peeve of mine, I like variety, and when you're so limited it's hard to switch things up. I guess maybe I'm just frustrated because my husband got himself a pizza for dinner and I'm like "mmm...soft chicken....again"[/quote'] I'm so with you. I'm sick of shakes and I can't eat chicken since it doesn't sit well. I hate seafood and red meats get stuck. I ran out of ideas too. It's so hard going out to dinner, everyone's eating and enjoying their food while I get a Soup and have to go super slow, so it's hard to enjoy it. I have buyers remorse and I hate to be Debbie downer. But it's true. People keep saying in time it will pass but I'm so impatient. I just want a slice of pizza!!!!!! 1 vachick64 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chrishalas 11 Posted February 24, 2013 Anyone have a meat loaf recipe without using ketchup? DOS 12/17/12 They make a reduced sugar ketchup. My boy friend just made a chicken meatloaf with it. So good. Also you can sub salsa and it works really good. Sent from my iPhone SD - 1/28/13 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chrishalas 11 Posted February 24, 2013 You ladies are brave!! I still haven't had anything crunchy like chips or crackers or any kind of starchy thing. I think they may be my triggers any way so don't miss them lol I did but some seaweed chips for next week and some edamame I'm going to roast- one more day on soft foods! But honestly' date=' I don't think my eating will change much for the next few months. I mostly eat a shake for Breakfast, an ounce of shaved deli meat and slice of reduced fat cheese for lunch, same for snack... And well usually the same for dinner lol I don't see how I could get my 60g of Protein and 60 oz of Water in if I ate anything else lol Any advice?? I'm a month out tomorrow. I'd love to have one or two crackers or a whole wheat tortilla one day lol also how much fat/ day does your doc advise? I eat a lot of cheese lol even if it's reduce fat it's not fat free <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />[/quote'] Look up on Amazon simply protein chips. The chili ones are really good. Also, Quest Protein Bars are really yum. I'll have 1/2 of one as a snack. Sent from my iPhone SD - 1/28/13 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
