Refried beans and cheese



Recommended Posts

Ok! I get to start puréed tomorrow and I'm looking forward to having refried Beans and cheese, but I have a couple questions:

Do I use low fat Beans, low fat cheese?

I'd like to hear some of your favorite things you add to them, if anything?

Thanks!

I lived on refried Beans and cheese (along with scrambled egg) for a while. I used low sodium Beans. Make sure nothing is added to them. ( they are naturally low fat) I added fat free cheese and sometimes a small amount of fat free sour cream. ( if the beans seemed dry or I just wanted the change) A small can of beans made 4 or so meals back in the beginning. I do remember they tasted like heaven, I was so done with the sweet Protein shakes! LOL

I add a drop or two of hot sauce so it's not but adds a little flavor. After about 4 small bites I feel like I've ate a huge thanksgiving dinner so I've been stopping at three. And I add fat free cheese.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
