Kmgaustin 6 Posted April 15, 2015 I need snack ideas. I eat the same thing every day in between Breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and I am bored. I can eat anything at this point. I am 7 weeks post op Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JamieLogical 8,710 Posted April 15, 2015 My Snacks are usually reduced fat string cheese, Dannon Light & Fit Greek Yogurt with some granola or Kashi Cereal mixed in, 1 oz. of dry roasted lightly salted peanuts, some sort of meat stick (like a beef stick, but usually turkey instead), and Protein Bars.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Edavidson 84 Posted April 15, 2015 I have light and lively greek yogurt, it's only 80 calories and they are so good. I have snack bags of thin pretzel sticks, 100 calories per bag and if I want something a little sweet I get animal crackers, 16 crackers are 120 calories. I know they have carbs, but I am still losing weight so I am good with them. Every now and then I will have 2 oz of ice cream but that is not much. I can't eat much at a time so when I want something I eat it but only a small amount. If you don't have something that you want every now and then you will get board and do things you should not. This is a lifetime change and it is not easy for any of us. It is depressing some times when I am out with family and friends and I can't eat. My family understands and they are an inspiration to me. I eat anything that I want to eat after I get my Protein in and it is working for me. Try different things, I found that my taste buds have changed. I can't eat the bad things that I use to because it tastes bad now. I think that is normal to. I keep my calories at 800 - 1200. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Edavidson 84 Posted April 16, 2015 corkyg: I hurt when I first take a bite of something. The Dr. gave me a prescription for hyoscyamine I put one under my tongue 1 hour before I eat and it really helps with swallowing and it eases the pain when I eat. They did an upper G.I. and found that when I eat my stomach has spams. You might want to discuss this with your surgeon. I don't know if it is common after sleeve surgery. I hope it gets better for you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
