Will you share your ideas on food choices?

I am allowed to try solid foods as of today. I am still a bit nauseous and belching a lot and my since of smell is crazy.

But for the most part I feel pretty great.

However, I am starting to get hungry. I would like the choices I make to really count. Flavor that is.

So, does anyone have any ideas they would like to share? Breakfast? lunch? dinner?

I really wish there was a book out there for us like Weight Watchers has.

Meal ideas for each stage.

I didnt have "stages" or phases of refeeding. Or if I did, the doctor didn't call them that.

I have this cookbook which suggests the timing after surgery for each recipe:

recipes for Life After Weight-Loss Surgery: Delicious Dishes for Nourishing the New You

by Margaret Furtado M.S. R.D. L.D.N. (Author), Lynette Schultz L.R.C.P. R.T. (Author)

This one does about the same:

Eating Well After Weight Loss Surgery: Over 140 Delicious Low-Fat High-Protein

Recipes to Enjoy in the Weeks, Months and Years After Surgery

by Patt Levine (Author), Michele Bontmpo-Saray (Author), William B. Inabnet (Author), Meredith Urban-Skuros (Author)

Both are on amazon.com

Honestly, I used the one I have for a little bit, then went out to the internet and searched low calorie or low carb recipes and flew from there.

Hope this is helpful.

Thank you. I am going to look for it now.

And search the internet tonight.

I'm Loving Chobani Greek yogurt, it is so yummy and has 14 grams of Protein, that has been my break most mornings.

lunch homemade veggie Soup, 1 large can of veg-all and V-8 low sodium simmer, then I just started adding ms dash seasonings turned out so good.

I was allowed to have tuna wed and it was so good

oatmeal, eggs etc coming off liquids, real food taste so wonderful!

I have been eating lots of greek yogurt. Yoplait makes a good one with 14 grams of Protein. I also baked some tilipa last night. Any white fish doesn't need pureed and I added some lemon pepper seasoning. I am planning on having refried Beans this week and cottage cheese and of course mashed potatoes. I have been trying to load up on protein and need to pull out my eating well after weight lost surgery cookbook. I didn't look at it through the clear/full liquid stages.
