Ketchup, Mustard, & Pickles



Recommended Posts

I'm 3 weeks out, and my NUT said I could have a portion of a veggie/soy burger like Boca or Morning Star. I used to eat these as just a regular burger. So my question is when can I add Condiments to this? Thanks!

I love the Morning Star burgers! I eat them regularly. I think I was using those Condiments in moderation pretty early out after I started solid foods. 1 patty for me is the perfect portion. You probably won't be able to finish half at 3 weeks out ;)

I never eat ketchup, but I started eating mustard and pickles pretty much as soon as I was allowed "all foods as tolerated." For me, the mustard and pickles make low fat burgers edible.

Morning.

ketchup has a lot of sugar in it. The mustard is okay. As for pickles, lots of salt if having dill and lots of sugar if having the sweet pickles.

I was told to use mustard over any Condiments.< /p>

My surgeon doesn't mind some sugar, he is just very against high fructose corn Syrup. If you must have ketchup, be sure and read the label. Manufacturers are starting to pay attention to consumer demand to not rely on high fructose corn syrup so you can find some alternatives.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
