Recommended Posts

Woke up this morning on the 1st day of Soft food. decided id see how bad having fats affect me. ( had whole egg on day 1 of my very soft, did not go down well but not bad. ) and I am happy to say, 1 cup of cafe creme down and no ill effects.😁

the big test will be tonight and see how some chicken does.

May it slide down smoothly and neither get you with its spurs or try to peck your esophagus to death! meat and me still have a very tenuous relationship, worsened by the fact my Previous Pouch does not like Greek yogurt or cottage cheese. She sort of tolerates ricotta and harder cheeses. like chedder, gouda, Monterey Jack if it's pepperless, mozzarella and occasionally Colby. Weird isn't it? I cut the cheese into postage stamp sizes , chew- chew, she probably sighs but doesn't send it back up. Lady cream of cauliflower last night, use the Green Giant broccoli, cauliflower or cauliflower medley in it, 3-4 meals of it, I take out and 1/4 cup, try to be optimistic but she usually makes me stop before the mini- bowl is empty. Last commodity box I got had multiple cans of mixed vegetables so make some sort of veggie Soup, been thinking I might branch out to the almond, coconut and cashew soup based I saw at Wal-Mart, then try some seasonings for other tastes like cajun, Thai et, Spanish/Mecican, maybe even Caribbean?et cetera,

yeah, funny how things go like that. Sofar the only thing my stomach objected to was the Tomato cream Soups and that was week 1. Cottage and greek yougurt go down fine, even 2% fat stuff ( which I had to get as the store was out of the 0 i normaly get. )

Next on the list is lunch, Sardines and triscuites ,

Wish me luck

Did you realize that Tomato Soup is HIGH in sugar, especially the Campbell's and many people can't handle Tomato as a flavoring right away , comes later for most of us. One of my pre-surgery meals was tomato Soup, I would take a chunk of cheese, cut it into small chunks, put them inside my homemade biscuit dough, drop them into the hot t soup, put my see - lid on and cook them as dumplings. So so good, you would take a bite and there was the melted cheese inside. A memory I can't duplicate anymore.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
