Sleeved 12/5/14...post op diet

[beehappy5 2]

Hey any recent post op sleevers? Having trouble with everything being so sweet...protein shakes, yogurt, pudding, flavored water. Any savory ideas?

You can have broth and add unflavored protien to it.

Unjury makes a chicken broth flavored Protein Powder that is fantastic. (High in sodium though)

Syntrax unflavored is really good for adding to things also.

Thanks for the ideas!

The chicken Soup flavor from Unjury is excellent. I can't handle the unflavored broth. It does have a flavor and it isn't pleasant.

I really liked Tomato Soup with a scoop of cottage cheese. Also, I've been eating plain ricotta cheese, and I love that too.

Also, I saw this recipe for pureed chicken (I used turkey instead) that gave a great savory flavor. It's so simple:

Take a pound of ground turkey/chicken

Cook it plain. Bake, broil, whatever, just make sure there's no pink left.

Put it in the blender (I love my vitamix)

Add 8 tablespoons of chicken broth

Add a bunch of salt and pepper

Blend until pureed

Divide into quarters

Each quarter is a meal. Freeze the other three.

It's ridiculous how satisfying this has been.

Also, my wife has been making me scrambled eggs, and those are great, too. Just make sure they're really mushy.

I had my sleeve Dec 3rd. Just crappy Protein Shakes and thin Soups. Thinking... Or wishing rather their was something out there to just chew lol. Any other recipes or ideas people have tried beside Soup? Dumplings? Soft enchilada? Something to swap from the norm? Or am I just screwed for another month lol? Never realized how mentally tough this would be. No regrets just searching for ideas.

I bought a small cookbook from Amazon: "Weight-Loss Surgery Cookbook, simple and delicious recipes for every stage after surgery". It is making full liquids bearable (soft set egg custard and more). Out also explains what needs to take place at each stage. I hope this helps.

Oh wow.. Thank you so so much. This is probably just the thing I need!! You have been a Godsend!!

If you like Mexican food, I just made this and it's very good. Blend I can retried Beans, one cup salsa, and 2 garlic cloves. Add in 1/2 cup chicken broth slowly. It makes it a pudding consistency. Heat and enjoy! Great Protein source. Enjoy!
