Hello Bianca[emoji112][emoji112], I'm following because I am in the exact same boat!! It's chicken and yoghurt EVERYDAY! Cottage cheese used to be high up there too but getting tired of it.
-Yoghurt in the mornings
-Whatever meat and veggies are served at work for lunch.< br>-chicken and veggies for dinner

Yoghurt or cottage cheese for Snacks. Occasional nuts but that's a HUGE slider for me so I stopped the nuts recently.

RINSE and REPEAT [emoji25][emoji28]

Well I am at 5 months now and since I was 3 months I’ve honestly eaten basically every type of meat. I limit the red meat and don’t tolerate greasy food well so I limit it a lot, but I have tried about everything without issue. I prefer shrimp and other seafoods or chicken because they are less likely to make me feel bad. I haven’t eaten ground turkey yet and don’t really plan to start. It is super unappealing to me. I like regular turkey but ground turkey and chicken are not something I am interested in trying. I also love Beans for variety. I think adapting to focusing all my meals on Protein has been a big change for me personally. Has taken some adapting but the results have been awesome so I’m all in. I also gave up yogurt after week 4 bc I was able to hit protein goal without it.

I can combine two different Protein Shakes (powder and premade) in the blender in the morning for my Protein goals. Also in a pinch, a small low carb smoothie from Smoothie King works. I know Smoothie King contains a bunch of crap, but it will keep you full.

Also salmon ,cod, and catfish are also good varieties of fish to try

Very little! :lol: I do however crave Chinese, Indian and Korean food, not take-away or westernised stuff but proper traditional stuff.

I am obsessed with kimchi and sui mai at the moment. My husband doesn't like the smell when I open the kimchi LOL I guess coz it is fermented (great for the gut) the garlic smell doesn't linger on my breath, good job really or he might move to the spare room lol

I have been eating a lot of chili recently as the weather calls for it. Last night my hubby wanted Subway so I got a 6 inch roast beef and only ate the meat and some of the toppings and I have the other half for lunch today. I have also had brisket and baked Beans, lots of Soups, half a pot pie (no crust) and scrambled egg with spinach. I am sure there are some I haven't thought of, but I keep it as simple as possible, one new thing per day!

      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.
