Looking for suggestions on foods you enjoy



Recommended Posts

Ok. I'm 5 months out lost 80 lbs and close to goal. That being said I am very selective on what I eat and would love any suggestions on snack foods that are healthy to expand my Snacks. It's always nice because there is si much out there I will start. I found these bean crisps made if fava Beans, yes fava beans. they are decent in Protein 7 grams and Fiber 5 grams. and 100 calories for an oz.

and go....

I've been making deviled eggs and egg salad (low fat mayo) to snack on-very filling.

String cheese is always good.(Low Fat-Part Skim)

Pre-Portioned Bags of Nuts (Almonds & Cashews are my fav)

Good luck on your journey!

Pork rinds

Pepperoni and cheese

Pepperoni chips (you can microwave pepperoni between pieces of paper towel and they come out crispy and delicious)

Nuts in the shell (it takes longer to eat them if you have to open them)

My go to snacks:

My current favorite snack is toasted walnuts and pecans. I put the raw nuts in a pan, spray with Pam, add some Stevia and some salt, mix, and cook them on median heat until they start to brown. Let them cool and store them in the fridge. I use them on yogurt or just by themselves as Snacks.

My other go-to snacks: Deli meats with a slice of cheese, cold, leftover chicken, or a little salad with avocado and shrimp.

bacon. Hormel pre-cooked black label bacon. heat up in microwave, dab off all the grease. YUM!! Two slices of those and I'm happy. Not much fat or sodium in just two slices. I like to crumble them over some avocado sometimes too.

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
