Has somedody cheated in the post op diet?



Recommended Posts

I'm on the third week post op and I'm getting crazy with the purée food! I've lost 7kg post op plus 6 pre op.

Today I had half slice of bread with mushed turkey ham. I didn't feel bad or pain on anything. Does anyone knows when I'll be able to eat normal food or something different I'm mostly allow boiled veggies with chicken or fish (so boring) can come body give me recipes or ideas maybe more tasty. Thanks

I made up a lot of dishes but that is how I roll.

I would sautée chicken breast, onions, garlic, shredded carrot and then use a low sugar marinara sauce or make your own with pettite diced tomatoes, Tomato sauce, basil, Italian seasoning. It was my version of chicken cacciatore and it was delicious, not boring at all. If you like it spicy add some red pepper flakes.

I also made taco meat and topped it with cheese and a dab of low fat sour cream. Once I could eat raw veggies I started adding lettuce, tomato and black olives. You can make the taco mean with ground chicken, turkey or 90% or better beef.

Soups - I ate a lot of chicken and veggie, beef and veggie, chicken tortilla Soup sans tortilla.

There are many many recipes on Pinterest if you search Bariatric foods. I know I have a whole board of recipes I found and new I could change to meet my needs. It has worked wonderful.

I will caution you on eating bread, rice, Pasta, sweets or any kind this early on. It's up to you but at the end of the day those types of carbs can cause stalls as well as set you up to crave them.

Yes, you will likely go a very long time before you eat a sandwich again but you begin to crave what you eat so please be careful. You did not go through all of this pain and change just to fall into old behaviors.

You can do this! Keep your goals front and center and it will happen.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
