Whats a bento box?

It's basically tupperware with compartments. Lots to choose from. I pulled this from google images.

I would strongly recommend packing a lunch box with good healthy items. There are tons of healthy Protein rich Snacks out there such as fat free Greek yogurt with fruit. Fruit cups no sugar added,... Use myfitnesspal to track your daily intake. This will open your eyes to what you are doing and how it will impact your weight. It's all about you! Don't let all temptations take you off track

Whats a bento box?

This is the one I have:

http://secure.laptop...2-BERRY&eq=&Tp=

I've been using it for a year now and it has held up perfectly. It's also about $20 cheaper now. Like I said, this is perfect for Breakfast, lunch and a snack. I will fill one of the larger containers with some kind of meat, the other large one will hold a salad or vegetables. The smaller container will hold a serving of Greek yogurt with a bit of sliced almonds and the other small one will hold a serving of cheese. If I want crackers with the cheese I will throw in a ziplock with about 6 small crackers that I get from Trader Joes that are high Fiber and high Protein like their rosemary raisin crisps or 12 grain crackers. The tiny 2 tbs container will hold dressing or dip if I want it.

I change things out. If I want to up my Protein I will fill one larger container with meat and the other with shrimp and put my veggies in the smaller one in place of the cheese.

Bento boxes are fun and keep you honest ;-)

      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.

        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!
