Topic: RE: what are you eating 3 weeks post op???

My doc put me on soft foods. If it can be smashed with a fork I can eat it. I have egg and cheese for breakfast usually. For lunch I have chicken salad on Parmesan cracker and Greek yogurt that I make with my instantpot. Dinner has been turkey and cottage cheese or more chicken salad. I add protein powder whenever I can. I can't drink protein shakes they make me gag. I am four weeks post op as of tomorrow. I will be starting regular food next week.

Hello Alan - I haven't made it in a while but silken tofu and Birds makes a really great custard!

referred Jan 2016 intake May 2016 left programme returned June 2017 final pre-sx class Oct 2017 surgeon appt Oct 2017

Opti Wt Nov 4/17 226 lbs BMI 45 Sx Wt 212 lbs RNY surgery Nov 23/17 M1 -18 M2-9 M3-10 M4-8 M5-6 M6-7 M7-6 M8-3 M9-1(so far) Down to within one pound of my goal and 99 lbs down from my highest weight. I was not a fast loser but who cares as long as you get there! I know the newbies check the trackers and the signatures so although I kind of lost track of how the rest of the weight came off, you should know that it was not fast and furious but it was slow and steady!

current BMI 24.7 that, my friends, is NORMAL!!! Strong is the new pretty!

Not sure where you are in your process (pre op vs post op and if so at what stage)

Oikos Triple Zero Yogurt (15 grams of protein)

Small containers of chicken salad or tuna salad or egg salad served with fresh greens (e.g. bowl of salad)

Hard boiled eggs

Protein shakes made in a shaker bottle with fairlife skim milk (kept in fridge) and protein powder from individual packets or packed on your own in baggies.

Protein bars

Sargento Cheese snacks -- the little containers with the cheese, nuts and raisins or dried cranberries

Cheese sticks (cheddar, jack, mozzarella)

Cashews or Almonds

Keep on losing!

Thanks for your reply. I'm glad to see that I'm not going crazy thinking you can do something like this. Can you explain the 5 day reset? I don't have a bariatric doctor anymore. I plan to look into seeing someone after the first of the year.
