I'm 2 months out on June 27. I'm running out if ideas of what to eat next. Do u guys have a website or something that I can refer to as far as what to eat at what stage? For example when can I eat peanuts, lettuce, etc. All I've been eating us like beans, lentils, baby shrimps n I've tried imitation crab with clamato. Any ideas would help. Thanks

Eat yogurts, sf pudding, sf jellos, Soups, go to emilybites and check out her lasagna cupcakes, etc. She has some really tasty stuff you can use for your self. My family loves them too.

At two months out, I can have whatever I want. In fact, tonight I made steak for fathers day and ate about 3 oz of it. Its the first red meat I have had since surgery. No problems here.

Really steak? I thought that's was til like 3 months. Thanks for tips. I make lots of food for my daughter n niece like hot dogs but I miss it myself. All I have is juices, n protein shakes and it can get boring.

ANYTHING I WANT. Much smaller amounts, and healthier ingredients when I can.... but I am a food lover and I will always be. I enjoy variation and quality not quantity. Open yourself up a bit.... you have to live with this sleeve for the rest of your life. If you get too tired of the mundane you may find yourself rebelling in a very bad way later. That's just my rational. Try the healthier versions of foods you loved before.

Im 3 months out and I can eat anthing. I eat every 2 hours. So I could eat a whole stake thruout the day. Then eat a fish the next day and a whole chicken breast the next. I also eat yoplait greek yogurt and drink Water with a wedge of yellow lemon. pretzels for salty treats and sugar free chocolate for sweets. Just concentrat on your Protein and water intake.

I'm almost 2 months out and I eat pretty good variety. I always focus on Protein first, but I still stay away from beef. They told me for one year, but I might try it out by 6 months!!

I am loving turkey. They have ground turkey already seasoned for tacos!!

Yum

Just curious how much weight u guys have lost? I'm 2 months out and I've only lost 30 I hear ppl lose like 50 and I'm scared I'm not doing something right.

Rosikah-I wouldn't worry, everybody is different. I'm 2months post-op too and I've lost about 38lbs. I plateau or teeter totter for a few days but I still loose weight after that. Just hang in there and don't lose hope

I looked up Emily Bites!! What a great blog!! Thanks for sharing!! I love Emily bites!!! Can not wait to get to my kitchen!!!

I'm irritated that my diet is so restrictive, but many others have the green light for so many foods my NUT says are off limits! What gives?

Almost 2 months and realised that I can eat almost anything.

Noticed that I had a pre-op habit of drinking Water while eating, and also noticed that I am unable to eat and drink at the same time post-op.

I just get heartburn and heaps of acid reflux (not sure if their the same thing) if I were to eat and drink together. Actually I also get acid reflux even when I'm not eating... but that's a separate issue all together.

So ... as long as I remind myself not to drink while I eat .... almost anything goes down well.... just in smaller portions. Also learnt to put my utensils down while chewing, cos it takes longer to chew now... and hold the utensils makes me wanna put more food in my mouth. Once I'm done, I take small sips of water. Water after the meal still produces the bloated feeling, but it's a habit I'm trying to break or at least cut down.

I eat anything I want but I focus on my protein and fluids. I eat cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, cheeses, beef, chicken and pork. Also shrimp and fish.

it all really depends on your pre op and how your surgeon performed your surgery. what does your suture line require. Some suture lines are stronger than others therefore diets vary.
