Hi everyone!

My surgery is Monday and I am looking for some yummy post op recipes.

PLEASE, post all your recipes!

Ps. I'm on day 3 of the pre-op diet and I want to eat my whole house! Lol.. Any pre-op recipes for my lunch time meal?

Thank you in advance!

You are not going to care about recipes next week!!! But , I have to say, pepper on my chicken broth and strained cream Soups was awesome, and a great change from sweet shakes. Get supplies together if you haven't for your first week or two home... Protein, ready to drink protein (vanilla allows the most creativity) sf Jello and Popsicles, broth....my fav is swanson's Mexican tortilla which I mix with cream soups, and pepper.. sugar free apple cider, hot chocolate, instant Decaf for flavoring, freeze some banana to add to shakes, crystal light and miso, chewable vitamins You will have time to gather recipes, but mostly, you will be flavoring up your shakes ( orange jello powder and vanilla protein makes nice creamsicle when blended with ice). pumpkin and or spices to vanilla then frozen makes a fake ice cream. Good luck and keep us posted!!

For puree/soft, my favorite thing is pintos and cheese with a scoop of ground beef from Taco Bell. Tastes like heaven after a few weeks of only liquids.

I also bought Tomato Soup At Hand which is pre-made and just needs heated up. One can would last 4 meals for me. Add a little pepper or a little shredded cheddar and it's delicious.

      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.
