HEYLP! Blue collar lunch?!



Recommended Posts

Does anyone have good lunch ideas for someone who works outside?? I need something that will survive about 4hours in a cooler with cold packs. I go back to work tomorrow and I'm stressing out over what to pack/eat!

What phase are you in for foods?

Hard boiled eggs or edamame and garbanzo bean salad. Soups in a thermos. Yogurt frozen before you pack it. If you can stomach it at the point chicken salad made with plain Greek yogurt or smashed avacodo.

YES!! Thanks. Just picked up some Starkist. Also some stuff to make turkey salads. My VSG date was 7/11(almost 5 weeks) and I'm on solids (no red meat/pork yet) and I'm doing great but I've had the luxury of a microwave and fridge at home. Tomorrow I'm back to the grind (although I'll probably spend the day in retraining at my garage). Got a nice big 36oz RTIC bottle and a case or Propel to keep me liquefied. B)

      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!
