Do you have a favorite food as a "sleever?"



Recommended Posts

Depending on what stage you're at, do you have a favorite food?

I'm on full liquids, but one of my favorites has to be: 3 tablespoons of mashed potatoes, 1 tablespoons of melted shredded cheese, and 1 tablespoons of Tomato sauce. Soooooo tasty!!!

Clear liquids: Sleepy Time Tea

Full liquids: Greek Yogurt thinned with Water and sweetened with Splenda

Early restaurant meal: Crab cocktail

First veggie favorite: frozen mixed veggies

Nowadays I don't really have a favorite. I rotate among a pretty wide array of Proteins, veggies, fruits, and whole grains.

I don't know what stage exactly I'm on yet but my favorite food right now is salmon sashimi. I LOVE IT! I did not like sashimi before surgery but now, dipped in some soy sauce, I'm in heaven. :)

Second favorite, though not asked, is chicken Soup (made with mixed vegetables, lots of great seasonings, and a little gravy).

I have always liked seafood, but since I've been on a regular diet, I cannot get enough king or snow crab legs. Such a yummy treat and high in Protein, too.

Last night we had baked salmon, mixed veggies (bok choi, zucchini, squash and chinese cabbage) and some whole grain brown rice. Yes, I'd have to say this is my favorite.

My tastes truly have changed a lot. I do crave bad things but I end up feeling sick when I eat them. Yes, I eat bad stuff... I'm not perfect. ;-) But, I really do love and crave good healthy and nutritious food now more than ever.

Pre-op I hated cottage cheese and now I can't get enough. Darigold pineapple cottage cheese mixed with black cherry Greek yogurt... I could live off it!

Question? How do you cook bok choy? I have always wanted to try it but I'm clueless as to how to cook it

Sometimes I will boil it, just like spinach. If you get the large size cut them up a bit smaller. The end part looks like celery, I cut that up the same. When I do mixed veggies I'll do it as a stir fry using EVOO. Don't need a lot because it creates it's own juices too. :)

Clear: sugar free Gatoraid

Full: 6 Star whey Isloate chocolate Protein mixed with Water and heavy cream

Mushy: Black refried Beans, pineapple salsa, chipotle aioli, and goat cheese mixture.

Now: Basil Fried Rice-but instead of rice I make cauliflower rice(I cut carbs/sugars). It is amazing and filling. Below is the you tube video telling you how to make it.

      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.
