FitnFabfor2014 358 Posted January 19, 2015 I was able to eat shrimp....at first only 1. Now I'm able to get down 3-4 jumbo and feel full. There is actually this shrimp cocktail Soup at the Mexican restaurant near my house that is incredible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PaulaleeB 88 Posted January 19, 2015 My first "hankering" was for shrimp. I'm on mushy, chew like there's no tomorrow, soft foods. So last night I ate 4-5 med sized boiled shrimp. They were wonderful and not painful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tomi71 581 Posted January 19, 2015 (edited) I think I had shrimp around 8 weeks out. I was able to eat 2 jumbos. Now I can eat 4 big shrimp or 6 med sometimes not even that as shrimp tend to stuff me. I only do steamed, bbq, or broiled. I particularly like them bbq'd over cedar, pecan, or apple woods. I used to love sweet grilling sauce but stay away due to sugar. Like red meat and chicken, I have to eat it slowly. Otherwise my sleeve will get angry and turn against me. Lol!
