3rd week out food Question
Hello everyone I am on my third week out and I refuse to eat anymore broth. I am pretty much doing ISOPURE and other protein throughout the day and try to eat pureed foods three times a day maybe an ounce or two. I just want see if everyone thinks my diet is okay right now.
Morning: This morning I had Egg beaters with a little bit of cheese mixed in them 2ounces
All day I had my isopure and protein shakes..although I know I am way behind in my protein intake.
Dinner : I pureed a turkey meatball and has a little bit of mashed potato - no butter or anything like that.
After I do eat I am immediately in the bathroom usually . Not sick vomitting but everything pretty much goes through me. I am still pretty tired sometimes and I know it is because I hate my vitamins..they taste horrible and I feel like I cannot take them all in or I am going to get sick.
Today I went to the market and got some more soups ...all following the rules of course. I was thinking about making shephards pie tomorrow for my husband the daughter and maybe try blending some up for me and adding some protein powder.
Now this is the crazy Question I needed to ask. The one thing that never makes me feel sick when I eat them are these veggie stix from the all natural food store. They are like healthy chip sticks I guess. 1oz is 130 cal fat 4 g and no sugar. I never have more than a couple because I fee llike I dont want to push anything but they seem to digest great and they melt right in your mouth. Is this okay?
Thanks everyone!
About the vitamin issue--very important to take them as we all know. :) My aunt had RNY 9 years ago and she uses OptiSource vitamins. She gets them from Walgreens and says they're a citrus flavor. She's done well with them and also recommended them to me, even though I don't have the malabsorption issue with the lapband. My dad uses them as well, because he had to have surgery for esophageal cancer and lost about 2/3 of his stomach along with a part of his esophagus. He was getting very tired all the time, and his fatigue improved dramatically after he started using OptiSource.
