Im 5 1/2 months out and doing the same. Some days I'll stop by a local buffet and get baked fish and greens...usually about $2 total. Egg drop Soup take out is good too. Can Soups ( usually a half can fills me up), some healthy choice meals ( I usually can't eat it all). eggs of any kind ...including egg salad without bread. tuna on crackers. Tonight, I had about 9 pcs of peeled cooked shrimp I buy frozen and get out what I want. 80 calories per 11 pcs. Grill cheese, Beans ( and the ones from taco bell thru the drive thru), KFC chicken leg.

Snacks - dry Cereal. 100 calorie popcorn. SF Jello or pudding. Almonds.

Hope this helps. :P

I'm a little under 3 months out- I eat shrimp, scallops, turkey cutlets, swordfish, tuna steaks, miso Soup, chicken meatballs, meatless chicken nuggets and meatless meatballs ( made from soy products) low sodium turkey lunch meat wrapped with a thick slice of Swiss cheese with a pickle in the middle, wild game like venison, antelope and buffalo.

Does that help?

I just found a book called 400 calorie fix. It has several options for meals at home as well as drive-thru and restaurants. With your doctors, dietitians and this book, you should be able to find some great meal combinations. My surgery is on the 12th and I'm just wondering what I'll do and eat the 1st 6 weeks. I know I'm liquid diet the 1st 3 weeks and puréed the last 3.

I'm almost 3 months out (9/27/12 was surgery date) I struggle daily to balance my fluids with my eating. Before I was so used to just drinking before or after my meals or all through it. I eat Soups, homemade or canned, shrimp, tilapia, I'm tired of tilapia now, shrimp I'll never get tired of. Another thing that I have been eating is Lean Cuisine salad Additions. It's just chicken and veggies with dressing, I add about a handful of lettuce(3 oz) and I've got a filling meal, those have been my favorite lately. Boiled eggs mixed with hummus but I make it like egg salad without the mayo, is good too. I plan on doing more homemade chili and soups for the winter.

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.
