What's for dinner?



Recommended Posts

I'm just more than three months post op and finding it difficult to come up with meal ideas. Post some pictures of your sleeve friendly meals, could give each other some ideas to keep the variety.

Tonight is bacon wrapped asparagus for me...

Eat some FF cottage cheese or yogurt and THEN explore Pinterest. It makes it easier for me to explore and plan recipes if I'm not starving. Lots of WLS recipe posts.

No pictures but tonight was smoked pulled pork, grilled onions and just a small amount of BBQ Sauce.< /p>

I've got a pork butt in the crock pot right now. Never made pulled pork before but I'm giving it a shot!

Been all over Pinterest, not much that I'd like or realistically want to make. Just wanting to see what things others are having. Gives me ideas that I can put together in my own way.

I keep chicken breast tenders in marinade constantly for hubby to grill. Pork tenderloin is easy to toss in the oven. Crock pot soup/stew once a week leaves plenty of leftovers. Frozen turkey meatballs for when I'm really not feeling like cooking, I toss them in marinara and bake.

I'm also doing chili right now. Perfect for cold weather and easy to eat. It also gives Fiber to keep me a "good ol regular" guy. We do pork butt quite a bit but we do it in the smoker. Good stuff!

Tonight was crab with lemon mayo, asparagus and coleslaw. Last night was Italian sausage with peppers, onions and spicy Tomato sauce and Tuscan-style white Beans. Night before was stuffed peppers (loving my new Instant Pot). New Year's Eve we're having people over and doing tacos and margaritas, no margarita for me. Chili sounds like a great idea for New Year's Day...

I had RNY gastric bypass surgery over 3 years ago. I found that softer foods such as chili and Soups went down much easier than harder foods such as steaks. As a result I relied on softer foods and to a large extent still do. The recipes for a few high Protein homemade meals that I used are attached at the end of the following article. http://www.breadandbutterscience.com/Surgery.pdf

      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.
