What did you eat the first time you went out after surgery?
I went out to dinner Friday night with my husband to a restaurant here in Martinez, FATZ... It was my fav before surgery... I had the grilled shrimp /vegie skewers and one stuffed mushroom... I was able to eat 5 grilled shrimp, 1/2 piece asparagus and 1/2 piece squash, and then a very small stuffed mushroom as an appetiser.. Not sure how to figure in the calories or whatever but the good news is nothing made me sick!!
I love lemon pepper! So far I've been able to tolerate most forms of chicken. The drumettes don't give me a problem but I can only eat maybe two and I leave a lot of meat on the bone most times.
When I make the wings at home I just throw them in the oven. I try to use some kind of marinade so that the chicken comes out nice and soft.
I hope you are able to tolerate chicken soon. I know how hard it is when you can't eat something you really like!
My boyfriend and I went to Costco and we got some pizza and I ate some melted cheese off the top and I ended up running to the bathroom and dodging past some other customers to get to the toilet just in the nick of time. I get sick almost every day since my surgery, I do have an ulcer though which is healing. We will see what happens.
