What we are eating,and what's eating us!!!! Monday..
Linda,
No solid food for me today because I got a fill this morning (much needed - yeah!). Tomorrow my surgeon wants me to "test" my band restriction. This might be an interesting test for other WLS patients too. I'm to measure out 2 cups of cottage cheese or cooked oatmeal (no solid protein or veg that might get stuck in my stoma), then eat until I get too full to eat any more, then measure what's left (if anything) to determine what my total capacity is. If I'm able to eat more than 1 cup, then I don't have adequate restriction and need another fill. I'm to do the test again a few days before my next appt. with him (in 4 weeks) to see if my capacity has changed. Worth a try, anyway...
B: 1 packet weight control oatmeal made w/ 2/3 c. skim milk
S: chocolate protein shake made w/ 1 c. skim milk
S: 6 oz SF/FF yogurt
L: 1 c. Healthy Request cream of chicken soup made w/ skim milk & Unjury chicken soup flavor protein powder
S: 4 oz. SF/FF yogurt
D: 1/2 c. baked ricotta
S: 1 SF pudding
