A lot of things are making me sick lately. I tried 3 meatballs got sick, some ground beef same thing. chicken only in chicken salad. So chicken salad, eggs made 10 ways until sunday, half turkey burger patty, and fish has been very boring.

I finally went to Walmart and decided to try some shrimp. I got the bag that comes 100-150 pre cooked mini shrimp. It wasn't expensive at all. I just threw it in a pan with some butter and garlic. 3 oz have 21 grams of Protein.

I ate 3 oz and didn't get sick so I ate about 6 more ounces. OMG it tasted so so good and I haven't been sick at all.

So if you want something else that is high in Protein definitely try these shrimps. You can get the bags at walmart in one of those coolers right before the meat section.

I am 7 weeks out and this is the first time I have been able to eat more than 4oz at a time. 2 eggs and I am so freaking full, more than half of turkey burger patty is enough to make me feel over full. I am wondering if these are considered slider foods because I am the same way as not being able to eat a lot of Protein at all but these went down too easy that is why I ate more. I guess shrimp is my slider food..lol

I'm 4-weels out and started mushies. I'm good with turkey meatballs, ground chicken salad, ground ham and mayo, re-fried Beans, and most soup...the exception being cream based. I'll have to try the shimp tomorrow. That sounds good. I've purchased salmon, talapia, and sole too. Thinkinng that fish may be a new friend. I stick to 3 tablespoon, and generally cannot finish that.

Seafood is my friend! I have started buying my shrimp at Sams Club because I eat it so often now. Shrimp and broccoli is my fav :) Scallops and crab legs work well too!

Wow. I can eat shrimp, but 3 large ones are my limit. I love them--and they're low in calories, too! I actually prefer them boiled and chilled, shrimp cocktail style.

Bellabr - I couldn't eat beef or pork until at least 3 months after surgery - and it has to be cooked moistly (think crock pot) or ground meat cooked with mositure (meat loaf). I could do chicken, cheese, cottage cheese, yogurt and SEAFOOD. Shrimp and scallops and tuna and salmon are my saviors.

Thank you so much. I am 1 week post op, but staying ahead to make sure I have enough exciting things to keep me on track and not feeling like I need my old tummy back. Seafood and chicken are going to be my best friends. Thanks for sharing.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
