Bk & Kfc.... Who Knew?



Recommended Posts

Yup I bought the KFC mashed potatoes and they are soooo good. I also bought a small cup of Chili's baked potato Soup and mashed the potatoes in it and it was delicious.

Doesnt kfc sell a grilled chicken patty themselves. I ate a patty sandwich a year or 2 ago that was great but now postop theres no way I can eat that much. That sandwich by itself would be 2-3 meals lol.

But there is things from each fastfood restaurant that one can eat if really needed.

KFC does sell grilled chicken and its outstanding. They have a sandwich that's 2 grilled chicken breasts, bacon and cheese -that's the whole sandwich - no bread or anything. It would be probably 4 meals.

I was thinking the same thing, I could not imagine eating that. I wish I could ... I am told to stay on full liquids for a while longer. I am 3 weeks out on this Sat.

At first i was scared. 3 + weeks and about 2 weeks pre-op only liquids. After 2nd week post-op Dr. Visit. They told me u doing great no pains, nausea, reflux or any gas build up. Said week 3 start on mash, grits and oatmeal. Grilled or baked chicken, turkey and fish. I waited till almost week 4 to try the meat. So far no problems.

just the KFC in general is good for our diets...in regular form..not patty. I only get the meat so I'm not tempted on sides

I am 3 weeks out and can eat meat of any kind as long as its moist and in small enough pieces (I puree it in the food processor). Had my followup today and my surgeon is thrilled. Guess it depends on your surgeon/ center. Mine recommended full liquids at 3days, pureed food at 7 days, and soft (but distinct pieces of food) at day 11. They want us off Protein supplements and onto "real"food food ASAP resuming a normal, healthy plan by 6weeks.

at 3 weeks, mushies/purees are where I was at. I did have some mashed potatoes, but I had very little and pretty much used them to thicken cream of mushroom Soup. When I started week 4, that's when I went to eating chicken and other meats that were whole foods. Haven't had any issues.

I am not going to try chicken or anything like that until about 6 weeks out. Right now the mashed potatoes and creamy Soups are going down ok and I enjoy them but as for chicken, I know I couldn't hold it down. I do look forward to it though because chicken is great for Protein.< /p>

chicken is the only meat I just don't seem to tolerate too well (of what I have tried so far). I did get about a third of a chick fil a grilled breast down once and it tasted amazing. However, I felt uncomfortable for over an hour afterward. Guess I am still not ready for chicken even at 6 weeks. :(

      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! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.
