Any WLS grill ideas?



Recommended Posts

I'm probably about 1 month out from having surgery-- and I'm evaluating everything that goes in my mouth at this point-- from a counting calorie perspective but also from a "will this fit on my life going forward" perspective. Today, we grilled for the first time this spring, and it hit me that I'll likely be in full liquid and soft food stages during peak grill season. Any suggestions for things I can put on the grill? Likely there are things for soft foods...? If not, I'll easily deal because compliance to new diet comes first, but it would be nice to have some social time with my friends and family.... Ideas?

Grilled whole fish is always tasty. I had the same thoughts and will be on soft foods as well.

Red Snapper...here is a link for a recipe I enjoy: http://www.foodandwine.com/recipes/roasted-whole-red-snapper
The Caribbean is delicious!

To cook on the grill just wrap in foil and grill for 25 minutes.

One of the fishes that we use is Sole and it cooks very quickly wrapped in foil. Spray the foil always with cooking spray so it won't stick to the foil.

Any kind of fillet would work cooking in foil.

I can't remember if shrimp is on the list for soft foods but if it is you can grill them too.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
