Eating leftovers?



Recommended Posts

Is anyone else not able to eat the same thing multiple days in a row?

If I do I typically feel sick or like it's stuck in my throat. Anyone else????

I find that meats dry out enough to make eating leftover portions often leads to unpleasantness. There are some cuts of meat or preparation methods that result in a juicy enough leftover to make it re-edible. Most other foods I don't have a problem with leftovers though this may be down to my standard cooking methods to keep food on the moist side.

This all was more of an issue in the first several months, what with learning to eat again, what to watch out for, and developing successful strategies.

Having said that, I don't keep many leftovers unless the original meal was exceptionally good and it is something I judge would work as a leftover.

It's all a matter of time, patience, personal experience, and imagination. You will learn how to eat again, your tolerances, and food preparation techniques and tricks that work for you. Then it's wash, rinse, repeat until it becomes a natural habit.

You will work it out.

Good luck,

Tek

      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'. ???

        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.

      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!
