low mein chineese food



Recommended Posts

I'm cleared to eat regular foods in moderation. My husband and son went to a Chinese buffet and yes it was a waste of money for me but I ate in moderation and that is what a successful sleeve surgery should do. I didn't eat lo mein or rice because I used to love them so much. I followed the guidelines and ate Proteins, veggies, carbs/fats if room. Don't be judging!!! This is a lifestyle change and not a diet. We've all been on diets and failed. I went to the buffet and felt fine afterward. I wouldn't recommend it as a rule but I felt it was a challenge I wanted to overcome. Eating foods is a trial by error. I just try to stay away from foods that I know I love because I can now.

Typically on the occasion my Husband wants Chinese food for dinner, I will order chicken and Chinese Veggie... Our Chinese Delivery place has a "Diet Menu" and thats where I order from... The chicken and veggies are steamed and have a light tasty sauce, kinda like a lighter mix between the brown sauce on Beef and Broccoli and The Chinese Garlic sauce... It is so good, plus I get about 3 meals out of the small container which is awesome for my wallet!!

It's been one year ago and after going out I am able only to eat my full in three days by eating small portions. For example, my hubby and I went out for lunch three days ago during which time we both ordered barbeque salads from Bono's. long story short it took me two days to finish the salad. I am so happy because God has given me a remedy to the madness !!!! I thank God for allowing all of us the opportunity to select the Bariatric procedures to help us have a better quality of Life, and I choose life in him.

I ordered fish yesterday and the portion will last me 5 meals. I don't even think I can eat it before it goes bad. I just want a healthy kids meal!

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
