Going to girls night, dinner and a movie on Saturday. We are going to Mexican (Azteca) for dinner. I'll be exactly 32 days post op, and tolerating most things well. Anyone have ideas of what to order? Or should I play safe and get Soup, or Beans and cheese? ?

What's on your surgeon's approved list for your stage? I was allowed refried Beans fairly early. We eat out Mexican every week and I order a side of Beans and cheese. Yummy!!

I've been eating lots of refried beans! I will JUST be starting on solid foods... Just don't want to end up feeling icky. I really want to try some shrimp of some kind... Wonder if I should wait longer though...

If you are tolerating things well try a chicken taco and some Beans. Whatever you like! You can bring home what you can't eat.

Refried Beans

I had a similar function about the same amount of time post op. I went the safe route with chicken tortilla Soup. I couldn't even eat half the cup but it was easy on my tummy. Since I had kept my WLS private, I didn't want to try a new food so soon and risk a bad reaction in a public place with people I knew.

Beans and cheese would also be great. I chose the soup for the added Protein, and less carbs.

I LOVE Mexican food. Sooo When I started the solids phase a single cheese enchilada was a very good friend of mine. That early out I was able to eat about 3/4 of one. Now I will eat one with a little refried Beans.< /p>

I started eating cocktail shrimp at about 4 weeks. I do eat a lot of Beans and cheese with taco sauce and a little bit of taco meat. It's really satisfying for me. :-)

      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.
