You'll be eating very small amounts. I wouldn't worry about white/dark meat unless you just prefer it. In fact, the dark meat tends to be less dry which helps a lot.

Things I enjoy at 3 1/2 weeks out are about a 1/3 of a hamburger with ketchup, some grilled chicken breast with BBQ or Teriyaki sauce, tuna salad, grilled salmon, 1 strip of bacon and 1/4 cup of scrambled eggs, deli turkey meat with a slice of cheese, and throw some veggies or brown rice into any of the Entrees and you got a meal. Anything with Protein keeps me full for a while so I try to always have some meat first before I eat anything else.

I'm almost at week 3 post-op. I have tried a few things, but my favorite recipe right now is Ricotta Bake. It's like lasagna without noodles. Recipe is below. The serving size is for a regular stomach so of course our serving is about 1/4 of that. I also added turkey pepperoni and zucchini with mine.

INGREDIENTS

  • 8 ounces ricotta cheese
  • 1⁄2 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • 1 teaspoon italian seasoning
  • salt & pepper
  • 1⁄2 cup marinara sauce (or alfredo sauce)
  • 1⁄2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese


DIRECTIONS

Mix ricotta cheese, parmesan, beaten egg, seasonings together and place in a oven proof dish. Pour marinara on top.

Bake it in the oven @ 450°F. Before putting on mozzarella, bake for 10 min. then add the mozzarella and put it back in the oven for about 15 more minute. Total bake time: 20-25min.
