Bored With The Same Food...



Recommended Posts

Help! Okay so I have the lactose intolerance since surgery and I'm so bored with the same foods that half the time I don't bother eating. Oh also...I'm super picky. Here's what I eat...egg scrambled. Egg salad, canned chicken breast with Italian dressing, tuna, and pesto chicken with goat cheese and sundried tomatoes. I'm so sick of the same things anyone have suggestions? I go threw spurts where I don't really care what I eat as long as I get Protein, but now I'm going through what I hope is a phase where I want to enjoy what little bit I can eat. :( I'm a few days shy of 7 wks post op.

I put 2-3 chicken breasts in my small crockpot, cover them with salsa and let them go until cooked. Shred them and then store them (fridge for some, freeze the other). Once you heated up your portion, add in some non-fat greek yogurt, a few black Beans, a few kernels of corn and it's a wonderful soft mexican flavored dish.

turkey chili is great.

pork chops baked in low-fat Soup until they are super soft was one of my first soft meats.

don't get bored! That leads to straying from the plan. Play with your food to make it healthy and flavorful.

Why can't you have yogurt or cheese, these are both soft foods. Try putting your meats in the crock pot and cooking: ground chicken, turkey, chicken thighs. Cottage cheese, morningstar farms foods, Boca meatless burgers, fish(all kinds).

I haven't tried shrimp for a few weeks, when I did it didn't go down well. Ill have to try again. I don't do chili, but I'm thinking BBQ Sauce with ground beef I. The crockpot topped with onions. That's how I used to eat burgers minus the bun and cheese. I haven't tried ground beef yet I was too scared. :(

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
