My Lunch: A Pictorial Attempt To Show You Life Will Be Normal



Recommended Posts

I'm four months out so cleared to eat almost everything except I haven't dared too many raw veggies. Are you going to post your meals luminous?

As soon as I am consuming more than Water lol :) I love cooking and take pictures of everything I prepare anyway.

May not look very appetizing but it was quite delicious and satisfying. Barely able to finish it all.

Crockpot chicken curry with steamed zucchini. Yum!

Had 5 guys-bacon cheeseburger and cajun fries.

I am one who didn't have this surgery to give up my fav's.

So, I had the patty, cheese, bacon, grilled onions and like 6 fries w/ vinegar.

I threw out the bun minus 1small nibble.

I did not finish the whole patty. At 2 bites left I gave up bc afraid to over eat.

And yes, I did put it in mfp.

Lets be honest here.

I was really there for the cajun fries.

The burgers are good, but I'm a recovering fry gal.

To eat only 6, and only after my Protein was a major victory for me.

Yes, 800 cal is high but I'm ok w/ that.

Their fries must have crack in them. There is NO other explanation for what they are so good. I used to get them when I flew out of La guardia but only if there was someone with whom to share both the fries and the kids burger.

I do look forward to being able to do that once in a while as a treat. Right now, eating a burger patty doesn't appeal, and although I have a very accommodating sleeve, I suffer with potatoes so it's keeping me out of trouble.

For now.

Okay good example of what NOT to eat. I didn't have time to get Breakfast at the airport. Flying upgraded today, and this is what Delta gives you for breakfast. That muffin top? Aptly named. 31 gms of carbs. Practically my whole day's carb allowance! I will eat the top of the unstirred yogurt and get 8 gms of Protein, and potentially a little fruit.

In contrast my very delicious and sleeve friendly dinner. Jumbo sea scallops and grilled asparagus with edamame before. I was able to eat 1.5 scallops and 2 spears of asparagus. So good!

Breakfast in India (but western breakfast): scrambled eggs, toast, hash brown, sautéed mushrooms, roasted Tomato. Seem big? Here is a before/after. I'm quite full. Really enjoyed the mushrooms.

      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.
