I'm Addicted...to Salad! Lol!



Recommended Posts

I will be 12 weeks out in 2 days, and every since I was 8 weeks out & my surgeon told me to go for it, I can't get enough salad! I crave it constantly! I make sure that I have LOTS of high Protein toppings & red onions and I chow down! Since my surgery, I switched to mostly tender greens & baby spinach, but I also eat some iceberg, with no problems. My tastes have changed drastically since I was sleeved & I'm just happy that my two favorites are still good to me: salad & sushi! It takes me several days to eat a meal sized salad, so I use fat free dressing on the side. An order of sushi rolls typically takes me 2 1/2 days to finish also. I don't mind because I love leftovers. I bought a grilled chicken & baby salad from Subway (mistake); and I was PO'd that I paid $6.50 for chicken breast I couldn't even find! So I came home & dumped a 5 oz can of boneless salmon on it & voila! Good eating for the weekend! 

Good for you! salad didn't agree with me until pretty recently so now I'm beginning to enjoy it again. I love sushi and usually get 2 rolls (8 pieces each). That makes 3 to 4 meals/ Snacks for me. Good luck!

I can't wait to get another salad. I was just sleeved on the 14th, so I will have to wait. Enjoy them for me.

      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! 😞
