What are you eating/drinking
Some things I eat
ground turkey taco meet with a dab of sour cream, rf beans and salsa.
Avocado - I've had about 1/2 of a whole avocado in 3 days. Have it with my meat. I just eat about 1/6th at a time. I don't know if this is legal or not but it so smooth and settles well in my stomach.
cottage cheese
veggie burger 1/2 -1/4
I need to try more things but when I when grocery shopping nothing sounded good.
I need to try some egg beaters but just doesn't sound good.
I am 15 days post-op and am eating "soft foods" -- hamburger, nuts, cheese, fish, etc. as instructed by my doctor.
He also instructed me to eat only when hungry, that I need to learn my body's hunger cues as opposed to feeding myself on a schedule.
He is anti protein shake and anti-protein bar. My protein is to come from my food. He said in the first couple of months, my body has enough stored to carry me through this period of very limited appetite. My focus is on hydration and vitamins.
Well I am 15 days post-op and I am on soft foods now.
So far I have tried:
a little bit SF pudding
about 2 oz FF refried beans w/ sour cream & cheese
a little bit of mashed baked potato w/ sour cream, cheese, & butter
a little bit of Wendy's chili
1/2 of a soft scrambled egg w/ sour cream, cheese, & salsa
everything has been yummy! It's weird re-learning how to eat. My pouch grumbles so much during the day! LOL
Take care-
