For my consumption? I usually keep the following on hand:

Inspire whey Protein powder

PURE whey Protein Powder

a variety of beans/legumes

tuna packed in Water

Crystal Light peach iced tea mix

In the fridge:

smoked salmon

cheese

turkey breast

lettuce and spinach

shredded broccoli slaw mix

other veggies

shredded cabbage

Ken's Steakhouse Light Asian Sesame dressing

berries, seasonal fruits

chicken-black bean chili

Pasta e fagioli Soup, made without the Pasta (so, basically, a tomato-based bean soup)

In the freezer:

skinless, boneless chicken breast (which I eat far less often now that I have restriction)

ground beef

tilapia

mahi mahi

tuna steaks

salmon

shrimp

scallops

cod

boneless pork chops

tenderloin of pork

Basically, I eat 2-4 ounces of Protein (lean meat, poultry, fish or a combo of legumes and a little cheese) at each meal, plus nonstarchy veggies. I also have an occasional fruit (though I like veggies tons more, and lean toward them). I eat veggies as Snacks, too, when I'm hungry between meals.

There's other stuff in the house for my family---breads, pastas, rices, and so on.

Betsy...don't you love the Ken's Asian light salad dressing?! It has been a staple in my house for years now!

I have a lot of the same items that Betsy has in her fridge. Of course plenty of different things too because I am WAY pre surgery. However type of food is not really my issue as I eat pretty well. It is the quantity for me! :)

What's in my fridge? Lots of leftovers, lol! I usually keep lots of Water (with Crystal Light mixed in), Greek yogurt, cheese stix (not all for me, my 2 year old lives off those) and Snacks for Daddy and son (usually regular pudding, kiddie yogurt and applesauce). I don't keep a lot of sugar-free pudding in the fridge. I'll eat most of it in one day. I try to keep fresh fruit around but not too much since I don't eat a lot of it. I keep some frozen fruit, frozen salmon patties and whatever I think we will eat for supper in the freezer. I try to keep lots of canned tuna and salmon in the cupboard because I love those.

It's thicker than regular yogurt and not as sweet. I usually add Splenda to sweeten it unless it's the fruit variety.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
