Something "crunchy" To Snack On...



Recommended Posts

Celery strings can get stuck in your staple line. Takes your tummy at least 12 weeks to heal. When you can have it they recommend you pull off the strings. When you can eat crunchy, try fried Pork rinds, rice cakes, Wasa crispbread crackers, Lundberg Rice chips instead of potato chips, Pop Chips instead of potato chips. popcorn too when you get to that point.

OMG-I tried the microwave cheese slice today and it was AWESOME. I used Borden pepper jack slices. Definitely worth the 60 seconds it takes to cook, lol!

If you are a Parmesan fan, you can do the same with shredded parm. Just pour some on a paper plate and zap. Perfectly crispy cheese. Yum!

Celery needs to be cut up tiny, and cooked or sauteed, or else the strings are not good for you!! But I would say this would be later, then sooner!!

I did chex rice Cereal after 2 weeks they were really easy and broke down in my mouth to nothing. at that time I wasnt worried about carbs' date='calories,fat. I was weak and frankly needed it. I don't eat it anymore since it is a "slider" food and I can eat alot, I would NOT eat any nuts until 1 month post op.[/quote']

Easy to eat but little or no nutritional value. For example, Cheeto's is a slider

Try this with won ton wrappers: Spray lightly with canola spray (lightly) and then put a mixture of Splenda and cinnamon and use a strainer and drop on top. Bake at 350 for 6-8 minutes!

I'm in love with wrappers. lunch today was wrapper spread with 1 tbsp of hummus. So tasty! Have mostly done savory...will have to try sweet!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
