I don't get why my doctor wants me on a puree diet for four whole weeks! I know, it will pass fast, but it's sooooo boring!

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!!!!!!

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.

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.

      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.
