1 Month Post Op Gastric Sleeve - Mexican Restaurant



Recommended Posts

Hi y'all I'm new to the forum. I was sleeved on May 20th so I am in my Soft Foods stage now. My company is having a party at a Mexican Restaurant later this week. What can I eat? I was thinking refried Beans and maybe some cheese? I don't they will be low-fat refried beans. What else can I eat?

I've eaten Taco Bell reftied Beans since week three. It's such a small amount that I don't think lowfat matters much. The beans are the Protein. Enjoy. You can always check with your team and your program.

During soft phase I was addicted to refried Beans with salsa on top. No need for cheese, I think. You don't need much else during that phase anyways as the beans will be filling and delicious.

I had a similar situation at about 1 month out. I just ate a few bites of refried Beans, cheese or no cheese. I was truly full after only a few small bites. So, I spent my time enjoying the company and atmosphere.

refried beans for sure. Soft food phase I would eat them mixed with some lowfat sourcream or salsa.

They probably have a chicken tortilla Soup you can eat.

Personally, I’d go for the Soup. Anything else... Chew, chew, chew your food! Then chew some more!

      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.
