10 weeks out diet?



Recommended Posts

By 10 weeks I was cleared to eat all foods except crunchy things. I had switched to Protein Bars instead of Protein Shakes (was SOOOOO over shakes by then between pre and post-op diets!). I basically ate the same way I eat now. cheese sticks and/or greek yogurt for Snacks. A few ounces of meat for lunch and dinner.< /p>

I am 12 weeks out and have been cleared for a general diet since 7 weeks post op. The only restrictions are fibrous vegetables must be cooked and refined carbs are a no no. They recommend 1 cup of food total per meal 3 times a day and 3 Snacks a day. I can not even come close to eating a whole cup of food in one sitting. 1/4 to 1/2 cup max per sitting is about it depending on what I am eating. I still can't eat 1 whole egg at a sitting no matter how hard I try. It is a challenge every day to meet my Protein goals because of my limited capacity. I am interested in seeing what others are eating and quantities!

I am on a general diet and typically get about 1/2 cup down at each meal. I try and stick with Proteins like chicken, Shrimp, salami, cashews etc for the primary portion of my meal and will add a fork full of vegetables. I snack only sometimes and when I do it's a Protein Bar or veggie straws.

I was sleeved on 11/19 and have lost 62 pounds total - 50 since surgery.
