My Favourite Lunch



Recommended Posts

I take a 6 oz. can of Ham

Flake it with a fork

Mix in: Chopped sweet pickle or relish if you have it on hand

1 Tbspn Low Fat Hellmans mayo

Then I just eat 1/2 of it with a fork for lunch, sometimes I'll follow 1/2 hour later with glass of V-8 juice...

YUMMY and EASY

Laura...

What brand of canned chicken do you use? The stuff I have tried is nasty! It's like weird little twigs, gross.

That does sound gross.. I get 3 different brands.. big cans from Sam's (I don't know the brand), some normal size cans from Wal-greens (don't know the brand), and then smaller 6oz cans from a grocery store are Swansons.

One of the brands from wal-green boasts the Protein content on the front. And they're all white meat, I haven't been able to find the supposedly mixed dark & white meat cans.

The meat looks/smells JUST LIKE tuna. So you have to flake it.. but it tastes better than tuna :)

I'll look up the other 2 brands when I get home. I haven't tried the swansons yet, the other 2 are the ones I love, but the swansons looks like the others.

I also bought canned turkey the other day, haven't tried it yet but I plan to mix a little cranberry sauce and see how that is.

I was afraid canned meats before, but this chicken stuff rocks my socks!

I discovered I like the canned chicken too!

I buy the generic brand at Wal Mart or Swanson's from the groc store. They both taste the same to me but the brand from Wal Mart has (in a 2oz serving) 10 calories more but 1 gram more of Protein.< /p>

It does smell like tuna when you open the can and drain it but not fishy when you eat it.

I always just mix it with a little miracle whip light and relish and eat it with a fork or crackers. I have either canned tuna or chicken 3 out of 5 days days a week for lunh...it is the quickest and easiest to pack on the way out the door. My classroom always smells like tuna!

Pickles are great for stemming cravings I've found... same with eggs..I find 2 boiled eggs in the morning tide me over much longer than cereal...weird huh?

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
