dhrguru 1,238 Posted June 25, 2015 Which surgery did you have. I'm kind of at a similar place-- I'm 8 weeks out RNY, and am bored with eating/have no appetite. Outside of eggs for Breakfast i'll eat turkey sausage, oatmeal or cold Cereal. I don't do the cereals often, but do have then occasionally in small amounts just to offer variety. I don't like yogurt so Breakfast get boring fast for me. lunch I'll eat tuna fish over spinach, with a baby bell cheese; or sometimes I buy a grilled chicken/pepper/avocado wrap and just eat the insides of the wrap. lunch meat/cheese & tomato.Or a turkey burger w/cheese (no bun) and sliced peppers and Tomato on the side. dinner I'll have whatever Protein I'm cooking for the family, pork chop, chicken, etc. I just usually leave out the starch (rice etc) from my plate. I'll also eat spaghetti [meat] sauce, w/ no Pasta, but add ricotta to it. Tonight I'm baking chicken fingers for dinner. I don't snack much, but unsweetened apple sauce or canned peaches are my go to's. Hope that gives you some ideas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shalotta1974 5 Posted June 25, 2015 Hello, I had the Gastric Sleeve procedure I just started eating activia sugar free I found it at Wal-Mart l. As far as eating I tried Turkey Burgers, and chicken it doesn't sit well with me at all. I tried spinach salads and any green vegetables just doesn't do good. Recently I had to go to ER because I was constipated because I'm not able to get in all my Protein and nutrients. It really has been a struggle but I'm goung to keep hanging in there because luke you I don't have an appetite. I was eating alot of cheese to because that help keep me full so now I have to stay awsy from the cheese for a while until I get regular. My coworker suggested that I drink detox tea to keep me regular and take a Fiber supplement. Thanks for relpying to me and if you have any recipes please share with me. The only thing I can tolerate right now is Soup and it's been 100 degrees in NC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Inner Surfer Girl 12,015 Posted June 25, 2015 Have you talked with your NUT? It seems early to try spinach salad and raw vegetables. You may need to stick to cooked, mushy vegetables for a while. By the way, you posted this in the bypass forum. Although bypass food programs are similar you may get some good ideas from Sleevers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
