QUESTION FOR THE VETS AND NEWBIES

OK SO SOME ALREADY KNOW IM STRUGGLING WITH THIS WEIGHT LOSS THING. I WANNA DO GOOD I REALLY DO,BUT AS YOU KNOW ITS HECKA HARD. MY QUESTION IS,AT 2 MONTHS OUT,WHAT WERE YOU EATING.



 THIS IS WHAT I EAT THESE DAYS:

 GRILLED CHICKEN
BAKED CHICKEN
STEWED CHICKEN
PORATOES(BAKED,BOILED,MASHED)
EGGS(WHEN MY TUMMY ALLOWS)
2%CHEESE STICKS(1OZ)
MILK
SMOOTHIES WITH PROTEIN
CRAWFISH,BAKED FISH
RED BEANS
RICE
BAKED MAC N CHEESE
CHICKEN ALFREDO
DEVILED EGGS(IF I GO TO A PARTY)
CHICKEN SALAD WITH LIGHT MAYO

I CANT SEEM TO GET IN ALL MY WATER AND I FORGET THE VITS SOMETIMES....
THIS IS REALLLL STRESSFUL

It may be just my thinking, but I would keep the potatoes and rice to a bare minimum....if at all.    Girl, gotta keep up on those vitamins.  You won't like the side effects of not taking them.

Shrimp is a good protein source, sliced lean deli meats are a good option also.

shrimp was my friend post op till one day i broke out in hives;i dont do potatoes on  regular now,but before that was all i could tolerate as far as the deli meat,i eat the mesquite turkey breast. it has 9g of protein and like 6 carbs and 3 sugars if im not mistaken.



 thank you hershey

Oh lawd!  You live in New Orleans and no shrimp?  How are you with crawfish, salmon or tuna?

Best of luck to you.

crawfish....love!!!
salmon.....nooooooo
tuna....dont know yet

hmmm...let me think back that far. 

I was on straight liquids for 3 weeks so by 2 months, I was on soft foods.  I didn't start eating any kind of meat until about 5 or 6 months and then it was only fish and really moist chicken.  It was over 1 year before I could eat any kind of beef, pasta, rice etc. 

im on pureed foods til friday,thats my actual 2month date. everything up  until the smilies i've been cleared to eat,but i was just being greedy with the other stuff. i just dont wanna over do it



thank you purple!!!

Meekie;

Your doing pretty good. I am 11 weeks out and I can only tolerate soft foods; crab cakes, cheese sticks(  I melt them in my red beans or refried beans), split pea or lentil soiup and of course the protein shakes. But take it easy on those carbs; rice and potatoes. They are a beast!

The water keeps you from dehaydration and the vitamins keep your energy and blood levels in check. If you have to make a note and put it somewhere you can see it. Have you tried Crystal Light or non sweet tea?

All the best!

yes im drinking crystal light,sf h punch,sf koolaid,and country time lemonade to go. non sweet tea makes me gag!!!

thank you adrienne

No way to:
PORATOES(BAKED,BOILED,MASHED)
RICE
BAKED MAC N CHEESE
CHICKEN ALFREDO

What are you putting in your?:
SMOOTHIES WITH PROTEIN

Drink, drink, drink, drink your water. You should be chugging it allllll day.

Forgetting your vitamins? Try harder to make it second nature. What time of schedule are you on? Taking them should be like wiping your arse when you go to the bathroom...it just happens.
