what do you eat at 7-8 weeks out?



Recommended Posts

Hi, i'm 7 weeks out and I don't think I eat enough. I was wondering what others eat.

for example, today I had just some salmon and very little mashed potatoes for supper and a Protein Shake in the morning.

Yesterday I had a hard boiled egg and a Protein shake too.

Some days I get 2 Protein Shakes and some chicken. In fact I get very little calories. How about you?

Hi! Is there anyway you can go back and visit with the nutrionist at your surgeons location? Or even call the nut?

At 7 weeks out I was doing great,, fat free cottage cheese, string cheese, chicken, seafood, burger (no bun).. I would have a protien shake in morning , a protien bar at mid day snack.. I pretty much would eat 4-5 small meals all day long...just to keep fuel in my body..

If you are only eating a protien shake in the morning (which goes through you), then salmon & mash tatoes for dinner you are not eating enough at 7 weeks out...just my opinion which is why I really hope you can contact your nut, to get more on track with food/meals...

Good Luck...& take care

The problem is not that I don't know what or when to eat, is just that I'm not hungry. I can see a nutritionist or my nut, but I don't see how they can help me with my hunger, or the lapse of it.

thank you all for your answers!!!!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
