Recommended Posts

im one week out of the surgery and the only way for me to cope with not eating solid foods is to cook. Weird yes,just how it works for me. I made this for my mother.

chicken in garlic lime saurce.

Take 4 chicken breasts.....cut them in half. Salt them,then use fresh ground pepper. Then take a large ziploc bag and pour all purpose flour in it. Take the chicken breast pieces and put them in the bag and do the shake and bake style of mixing. then get yourself ready made cloves of garlic,get about 2 heads of garlic worth....dice them up,then take about a cup worth of butter.

Pour the butter into a skillet,throw in the garlic into the skillet...sautee them to a light golden color. Add in chicken pieces. cook them on both ends for about 15-20 minutes.

take some limes,cut them into quarters. squeeze the juice onto the chicken pieces and then add a dash of lemon pepper seasoning. Make some white rice you got protien,some minor carbs and your good to go.

Sounds yummy I'll have to try that when that time comes. I am one week 2 days out and all I think about is food. So I'm looking for hood recipes to try when I can finally eat again.

I deal with not eating by cooking too. Well, what is considered cooking in this house! LOL I think it is that after you cook something you're tired of food and don't want to eat. I can't deal with going to the movies right now or going out to eat but it doesn't bother me to cook here.

Recipe sounds good btw!

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      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!!
