pirate's booty cheddar puffs

[latido 178]

I have been craving salty foods the last few days (I am 3 weeks post op today). I finally looked the the pirate's booty cheddar puffs and they have 2 grams of Protein per ounce serving. I dropped one piece into my chicken broth and it melted. I wonder if that can be motivation to work through the broth for liquid Protein. It doesn't even need to be chewed

Hi -

I am week 2 post surgery…..I think the issue with it might be carbs, artificial ingredients and non nutritional caloric intake, plus it's in a new tummy. I am on a strict 2 week post op full liquid diet, then soft foods (cottage cheese, applesauce, canned tuna, canned chicken in little tiny flakes. Grains and carbs aren't entering back into the picture for 4 more weeks and those are healthy choices only. Raw foods not until late September and October.

I know everyone's Dr. does is a little differently, so what I am following may not be what everyone is following.

In support of what you are feeling, I am sick to death of sweet Protein shakes - UGH and so I leave broth for my salty choice. I am dying to chew something - celery, carrots - anything!

I don't think what you did will hurt you and so understand why! I am really trying hard to focus on forming the good long term habits that I never had before. This surgery has given me the chance to start over and I know that this is my last option.

You keep on going and know we are with you!

I've been on purees for a week. I've had some saltyish foods, but it has hit me so hard that I needed to satisfy it. It honestly helped.

I am pre-op and confess I just ate some. However, I know I will be purging my home of ANY temptations before the surgery so that even if a crave it, I won't have access to it.
