Chicken salad



Recommended Posts

Hey guys just want to ask a Q.. I'm on soft foods for another 2 weeks and I'm doing good with chicken salad and tuna salad..( eggs arent goong so well) I chew it the 30 times and it doesn't hurt.. It's about the only way I can get a real Protein in.. But is there anything that I can put the chicken salad on and eat it?? I just want to vary my meal a little but don't know what classifies as a safe soft food.. I am going to call my nutrionaslist wed when they reopen but thought id ask here.. And also just want to add that I'm only able to eat about 5-6 bites of the chicken salad/ tuna salad.. Thanks for your thoughts!

You can season it with just about anything. I like curry powder in my chicken salad. Fresh herbs are great too. Try some chopped tarragon and a little dijon mustard. Chicken salad doesn't have to be boring.

Thankyou for replying.. I do make the chicken salad with good seasonings I meant more like what to eat with it.. Pre surgery I loved chicken salad on salad greens or wheat thins or a wheat pita.. Is there something like that that is safe during the soft phase?? I know crackers or a def no right now.. It seems like I read somewhere on here someone put it on a thin slice of pickle forte extra texture.. But I don't think I can have pickles on softs.. Right?? I'm sure I just need to keep eating it with a fork but it nevers hurts to hear other advice :)

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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?
