Containers for meal prepping



Recommended Posts

Hi guys! I am doing the rny the 28th of august and I was wondering what containers you guys are using for meal prep in small ounces. I have some of the disposable ones already (1 oz, 2 oz) and am looking for microwavable (preferably not glass because i travel and they break etc) now thanks in advance for any replies

I some called “snap wear” I got them at target. Glass, leak proof. Perfect. I am going to try to attach a picture.

I love zip lock bags - snack size 15 x 10cm. Great for freezing individual serves & don’t take up as much room in the freezer as containers.

This might not help because you said you don't want glass, but I use these 4-ounce "baby food containers":

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0854P3XS1

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0854P2X1W

They are oven, microwave, dishwasher, and freezer safe (well, the lids are plastic so don't put those in the oven), and pretty low in price (currently $14.99 for six, but the price fluctuates and I got them for $12.99). I like the rectangular ones (first link) better than the round ones because the lids on the round ones are a little difficult to put on and take off. I specifically wanted glass rather than plastic because plastic gets scratched and stained. I also think it's more enjoyable to eat out of a glass container than plastic, but maybe that's just me.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
