2nd Week Food Options

[NewAdventure2016 131]

What were some of your basic go to' for food options in your second week post op?

I'm mainly doing Soups and shakes. Would love to add at least a little variety.

shakes.

I thrived on shakes.< /p>

I had Carnation Instant Breakfast Lite many times, (and still do because I'm three weeks out tomorrow). This was on the list from my doc and nutritionist. Usually, I add a scoop of unflavored Protein powder, too. I finally figured out that using my Bullet smoothie-maker mixes the Carnation mix, Protein, and milk together better. It actually tastes pretty good, although I've had to play around with the amount of Protein Powder to add. Even though it's unflavored, it has a little aftertaste if I use the full heaping scoop full.

My doc also okayed Cream of Wheat during this full liquid period. I add milk to it, and it really hits the spot. I've also been able to eat sugar free pudding and yogurt. The Oikos Triple Zero is pretty good. I also have had cream of Tomato Soup a few times, when my tum-tum is feeling queasy.

I don't know what your doc had okayed, though. Seems like every doc is different.

I start tomorrow. I can have any cream Soups strained with skim milk, yogurt, SF pudding, small curd cottage cheese (mashed) and of course all my clears and Protein Shakes from week 1

My plan allows for scrambled eggs (with a small amount of cheese if desired), cottage cheese, the usual liquids from week one, and Soups. I've been doing a variety of soups to give myself something different and usually save those as my dinner as I am doing my shakes as Breakfast and lunch.

I've been struggling to get my Protein in so they told me to eat some Oikos Triple yogurt and add unflavored Protein. Still can't eat much, but I'm getting more in. A friend, who had the surgery awhile ago, also gave me some of the nectar protein that you can just add to drinks. I have the lemon-flavored one. I use some of that and add a little crystal light to a Water bottle.
