Ideas and Recipes struggling



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone...i was banded on July 8th and have lost 41 lbs. Wooohoo!

The only problem is...I am SO sick of meat, cheese, and eggs. I have four more weeks until i can add in vegetables.

How did all of you get though the post op diet without going crasy!

Any feedback would be greatly appreciatede!

Thank you so much!:cry_smile:

I am being banded tomorrow and my post op diet is different, I can add veggies and some starch after the 6th week, in moderation, but have to eat Protein first, then veggies and then starch till full.

We can eat Soups that you can eat with a fork like the chunky kind and not drink the broth also

I love squash and when the butternut comes out I love to add some cinnamon, and nutmeg and splenda and then mash it up and eat it. It's my favorite veggie. Could do the same (without the spices) with sweet potato and turnip and carrots.

Crock pot cooking was recommended too, like a good stew, and save the broth. Eat the soft meat, then veggies and potatos.

Lots of choices, just make sure that the meats are very very tender and moist.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
