Has anyone made this? I get to go to puréed foods on Tuesday and chicken salad is on my approved list. I don't like mayo so I thought this recipe might work. Recipe is:

2 lb. chicken breast

16 oz cream cheese

2 packets of ranch dressing mix powder

8 slices bacon crumbled

Bake first three ingredients in crockpot for 6 hours, shred and mix in crumbled bacon.

A 4 oz serving is 20 grams Protein, 8 gr fat and 4 grams of carbs.

Now I doubt I can eat anywhere near four ounces early in but think this might be a good go to for me. Anyone else try this recipe?

I think it looks pretty good. chicken breast can be a bit hard to swallow at first, but it seems it would have enough moisture in that recipe. I like thighs instead for that reason. I made a crock pot Mexican chicken thing using salsa, thighs and cream cheese that was pretty good in the mushy phase.

Also, if you don't like mayo, Greek Yogurt is a good substitute for mayo in many things. Extra Protein, too.

That sounds great. I would probably leave off the bacon until you get to solids. I may try making this soon.

I agree with the leaving out the bacon, too. May be too crispy for your little tummy.

Super good. I actually add a half cup of milk to mine because otherwise I feel like it's too thick. Also left off the bacon and it was way better that way.

Sounds yummy. Use dark chicken meat to help also.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
