Recommended Posts

Going back to work soon and wondering what people brought for breakfast and lunch

I go in very early, no time to eat before. I will still be on pureed. Any suggestions?

Thank you:)

My 1st week back I was eating cream of mushroom and cream of chicken Soup. And a little bit of creamy Peanut Butter. Lately I've been eating re-fried Beans with salsa and a little cheese mixed in.

cream of wheat and thinned oatmeal are great for Breakfast. i also ate the hand Soups from Campbell cream of chicken, broccoli, and chicken and stars...they are less than 200 calories and very filling.

My nutritionist told me absolutely NO Peanut Butter. However, here's what I eat on my pureed diet:

Breakfast

1 scrambled egg

MORNING snack

a few spoonfuls of yogurt

lunch

1 1/2 ounce tuna mixed with light mayo

applesauce

AFTERNOON SNACK

a few nibbles of sliced pears

I teach fourth grade, and as long as I bring an insulated bag with an icepack, everything works great for me!

I had a Protein Shake for Breakfast on the way to work (around 7 am) and brought the 4 oz cottage cheese pack for lunch. I also got Soups at work. Actually, I'm now on soft solids and still do the same thing - I'm loving my shake, and I seem to be addicted to the cottage cheese - totally enjoying it.

      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.

      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! 😞
