Chinese Food



Recommended Posts

I'm eating some shrimp egg foo young today. With the gravy and eating one ounce at a time, I think the pouch will accept it. Will sprinkle some unflavored Protein Powder on it also so with the Protein from egg and shrimp and protein powder, sounds like a nice protein filled meal!!!!!

Good for you! Hope that you are doing well with your surgery. It's amazing that you are able to eat 2 weeks post op and lots of luck with that. I have to wait a while for my revision surgery and I am petrified of having it. I just do not want to give up sugar in my coffee (because I am allergic to the artificial sweetners) and the eating and drinking.

Hopefully, your acid reflux is now non existent from what I hear about this surgery! Best wishes to you always.

Stephen

I had Chinese food last night! Beef and broccoli with sauce on the side. Went down very well, and totally hit the spot! I am 4 weeks post-op. I think I'm going to eat the leftovers for lunch in a few minutes!

Egg foo young is LOADED with fat and fried in oil ... most Chinese foods are loaded with fats and oils unless you get the steamed healthy kind. I stay far, far away from Chinese way, way too many calories.

Same. I could really go for a crab Rangoon but alas, it's not good for me. Those are the kinds of foods I ate that got me to my heaviest weight. I will stay away.

I miss crab Rangoon too but it's so awful for us. Anything to avoid pain and nausea.

Yup. I did find a recipe for crab Rangoon dip that's made with light cream cheese. And you can baked the wonton skins. So it won't be as bad but definitely will be a special occasion food.

I absolutely can not tolerate any type of Chinese food and it used to be my absolute favorite. After two horrible experiences with it, I don't miss it or crave it at all.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
