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. :(

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
