So my surgery will most likely be end of sept/early october due to my surgeon being busy... Ahhhh the waiting game.

Anyway, on my commute this morning I was thinking that meal time is going to be A LOT different in the near future. What are some good meals/recommendations to keep things interesting. I eat with my eyes and I'm hoping I can get away from that soon :/

Hello, since protein shakes are a large part of pre op and post op diet, I would suggest getting a book called "Bariatric Foodie Guide to Perfect Protein Shakes" on Amazon for $11.66. This book is so amazing and I use it almost everyday.

When you're on the mushie stage the best thing I found was 'mushie' lasagna. It's low fat ricotta cheese, spaghetti sauce, garlic powder, and some shredded mozzarella on top. Just microwave for a minute or so and eat! It really helps with the italian food cravings that come from not eating pizza or pasta.

Guy, sorry....I eat pizza and pasta!
