I actually did search this forum for this specific product, but came up only with this brand's protein bars and drinks, not this product specifically. I believe it is a newer product, or at least one that I had never seen in the stores before about a month ago, so after going through about 10 pages of search results, I concluded it wasn't there and made a post.

Anyway, it remains to be seen what my final opinion on convenience foods will be. I would like to limit them, but I am not foolish enough to think that I can get through life 100% without them. I'm impressed by those who can.

Thanks for your input on the product, and for mentioning an alternative item that is just as easy to get, but might better fit the nutritional profile I want.

I'm a bit late to this thread but wanted to offer a bit of reassurance. Even if you have searched and FOUND what you were looking for, it is absolutely always ok to go ahead and still post.

It might be really hard to go the rest of your life without convenience foods. But It's not that hard to get to goal without them.

The first year or so after surgery is crucial. Every bite needs to be necessary nutrition. Make it all count. Once you reach goal, it's natural to change things up a little. But that's also when many people start gaining, too.

Eggs post WLS are difficult for many. Processed eggs, probably worse. I threw away a lot of food ;). It is easier that way.

I didn't realize eggs were tough for people. It's one of the first things my surgeon lets us add back (in soft scrambled, mashed up form), so I though they were easier to handle.

Some do not have trouble. Fo me it was an issue of consistency, or texture. Shrimp, scallops, rubbery anything, tunafish, ground meat, were a no-go for me for a while, maybe 3-4 months? Very wet scrambled eggs I could do first. I know a lot of people talk about protein needing to be very wet, either barely cooked or with a sauce or gravy. I could tolerate barely cooked steak long bedore ground meat.

Anyway, these crustless things sound like they could be very rubbery, which would have scared me ;)

In case no one else posted, be so very careful about stocking up... I am a planner and I bought waaay ahead. And cooked waay ahead. Then threw out most of what I had stockpiled, because I could not tolerate what I loved before WLS.

A lot of things that seem to make sense actually wont. Eggs seem soft and easy, but it takes 6 months for many people to get them down, while others have no problems.

Ground beef seems like it should be easy, since it's ground up. But a good tender steak is almost always easier. Probably because the ground meats are only ground because they are the crappy, tough bits, while a tenderloin is, well, tender.

We are ALL individuals, OF COURSE!!! I ate so many eggs, and soft beans, the first 3 months, that I couldn't look at them, again, the next 3 YEARS.!!!

Even now, at 16 years out, I won't eat eggs unless they are freshly cooked. They can't have been sitting on a steam table...ewww...the smell alone makes me swoon
