Hello every body

Today is my 2nd day of my 5th week and i have no idea what can i eat for lunch or Breakfast

I sill feel afraid from eating meat or ckicken and all the food seems so boring ..

Anyone have any suggestion about a recipei or type of food that is allowed in the fifth week ??? (( i hope it's hot and spicy ))

I just started week 5, and my surgeon gave me a book that is very specific about the stages of eating. Did you not receive anything like that? My plan at week five allows any lean meat you'd like to try, that is moist. You can start adding small dark green salads, but eat protein first. Chili is good and could give you the spicy you seek. Fruits and veggies are added at this stage, even with skins, if you can tolerate them... but only (as always) after you've had your protein. You are to progressively grow to 3 oz of protein and 2 oz of veggie or fruit at each meal (4 x daily), and are allowed only one serving of complex carb per day (like quinoa). This is the plan from 5 weeks to 6 months, per my surgeon... but they are all different. Wishing you well!

I did not get a specific diet book and felt just like emarald.86 and I am so happy to see green salads and quinoa on your reply. I am going to try those! I too am still finding meat difficult and I am sick of yogart, Protein drinks, and am bored...so I will try to find some flavor in fruit and veggies (after some protein, of course). Thank you

What great suggestions! I'm 6 weeks out and I feel that I never make wise food choices. I didn't bring my lunch today and I trying to decide what I should have for lunch. Any suggestions!! What have you eaten today?

I think at week 5 I was able to have cream of wheat and cream soups. I'm 9 weeks out.
