Not Eating Solids For almost a month.



Recommended Posts

I am not starving but I miss eating solids. I did not have to do a liquid Pre op diet so its been a challenge getting use to post op diet. I have been wanting to eat salads so bad or even something with flavor. I am getting annoyed with the yogurt and Protein shakes I was cleared to have tilapia but no veggies on the side not that I will have room I know Protein is first just venting.

Just my thoughts on this. If you were cleared for talapia I'm thinking you could possibly have pureed sides. No RAW Veggies. I can't even have those yet, but I do run cooked veggies through the puree cycle. Sometimes I will have just a couple bites of Protein and then a couple bites of veggies just so I feel like I have variety. Just a suggestion... I too miss salads. Never in all my years of dieting did I ever think I would! :)

If you've been cleared for Tilapia I don't see why you couldn't have something like Cream of Wheat or Refried Beans with melted cheese and chicken broth to make it more watery. Both are delicious.

I feel you pain. I did purees for 6 weeks post. Part of my problem was fear of progressing to solids, though. But when I was eating tilapia, I was also eating tuna whipped with ranch dressing. I would put this on a thin piece of sharp cheddar cheese. It was heavenly. This first thing I ate which had bold flavor and a semblance of texture.

Talk to your NUT, take small bites and chew ridiculously well.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
