I like to keep it simple.

1. Cottage cheese (or yogurt) and fruit

2. black Beans and sweet potato

3. Spinach and banana smoothie

Basically, the only things I eat (18 days postop) are:
-light and fit greek yogurt
-morningstar spicy black bean 'burger'
-cottage cheese
-premier Protein shake
-eggs

I can't think of anything else to eat either. meat gets stuck, even deli meat, so I'm not bothering with meat at this point.

But I too am getting bored with what I'm eating. What is everyone else eating?

Hello

i think you should try oatmeal. It is very soothing for your stomach. It works for me and may work for you. I also make my own Protein Shakes with Peanut Butter , half banana , strawberry or any fruit you like with Gogi berry and I add a scoop of organize greens powder. I hope this can help you.

I use oatmeal with a spoonful of peanut or almond butter and almond milk. If you need it a tad sweeter blueberries or a small amount of maple Syrup gets me through the morning

Protein Powder Mug Cake.< /p>

One scoop Protein powder. 1/4tsp baking powder. Enough liquid to just moisten--sugar free Creamer, half and half, mashed banana, milk of any sort, even canola oil--then microwave for about a minute. If your protein powder has no egg protein in it (syntrax matrix is the one I use and it does) then use an egg or egg white for the liquid.

For me during the weight loss phase things like oatmeal and the homemade Protein Shake above (am I missing another protein source in there other than the Peanut Butter? ) would have been way to high carb and sugar. But your mileage may vary.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
