I'M REALLY HAVING TROUBLE FINDING THINGS TO EAT. I'M 23 DAYS POST OP I'M ON MUSHIES SOFT VEGS, CAN FRUIT, SWEET POTATOES, ETC... I'M SOOOOO OVER THE PROTEIN SHAKES THEY MAKE ME NAUSEATED, AND ALTHOUGH I'M OVERWEIGHT I'M A VERY PICKY EATER. NO COTTAGE CHEEESE, NOT A MILK DRINKER, NO STRING CHEESE BUT LOVE CHEDDAR CHEESE. TRYING VERY HARD NOT TO SLIP BACK TO OLD HABITS BUT THEY ARE REARING THEIR UGLY LITTLE HEADS THE ONLY GOOD THING IS I'M LIMITED IN HOW MUCH CAN BE CONSUMED. TONITE COULD NOT THINK OF ANYTHING TASTY TO EAT SO JUST SKIPPED DINNER WHICH WOULD BE FINE IF I HAD HAD A GOOD BRKFST, AND LUNCH.

 

BRKFST; 34 OZ OF WATER/1 CRYSTAL LITE

LUNCH; 1/3 CUP RED BEANS NO RICE

SNACK; MUSCLE MILK LITE

SNACK; 3 MARSHMALLOWS (I KNOW )

16.9 OZ WATER

VIAMINS/REG MEDS

OH! TBS OF PEANUT BUTTER

ANY SUGGESTIONS I RETURN TO WORK MONDAY AND NEED HELP PACKING A LUNCH AND HELP FINDING THINGS TO EAT:svengo:

    Not an expert but...

    My hub bought rotisserie chicken and I took slices off that to work for the last couple of days. Taste super yummy hot or cold. I made a very nice shrimp salad with canned shrimp that was divine. Make it just like tuna salad and maybe even throw in some avocado. I also did this with crab and it was just as good. I also found Parmesan chicken meatballs and breakfast link sausage that were easy to pack and heat. Definitely take a few tablespoons of peanut butter for emergencies. Try throwing your protein shakes in the freezer for bit so it gets slushy like a milkshake, that might make it more tolerable. I really wish you good luck. Being back at work is hard enough, but being miserable and hungry doesn't make it any better.
