Im stuck were i have to eat out and i need examples of what I could eat. I know soups but I'm in the puréed/soft stage and I want a Lil more than soup. I'm taking it easy but just wondering if anyone had any ideas? Thanks

I moved to PA and the first time I ordered a grilled chicken salad it had french fries. It was like what the hell? Defeats the purpose of a salad. Then I ate it. Lol

Lol. U guys are talking salad I'm no where near salad but it sounds good. I was stuck at Cozumel for dinner. Me n hubby got two tacos w/ shredded beef and 1 chicken enchilada with the refried beans. We both only ate the meat cheese out the tacos n prob 3 bites of the beans. No shell. Chewed a bunch but omg that was so good! Plus protein! Thanks for all the ideas!

A while back I created an Excel file of high Protein grocery store foods which a number of folks requested copies of. I have been constantly adding to that list (now almost double it's original size) and most recently added a number of fast food restaurant options. Here's what I have so far along with calories, serving size, and protein in grams:

Sorry guys, it's a little hard to read. The Excel formatting is lost in the copy and paste. Not much I can do about it as forum rules do not allow me to post an Excel file. Each one is in the order of menu item, calories, serving size, and protein.

They are so good though right!?? Lol

I'm a little over three months post op and I can do salads just fine with no troubles. I haven't tried a fried type...but I'm sure the grilled salad from Zaxbys would be fine.

I had a little salad a few days ago. Went down good too bad it's still 3-4 bites are you able to have 1/2-1 cup of food yet? I can get 1/2cup Cereal only everything else it's a few bites.

This thing has been bugging me so I tried copying the info into Word and then copying that to my post - much better!! At least I'll be able to sleep again! LOL

Mami I can't seem to get more than 1\3 cup at the most...I'm supposed to be adding new foods but it's kinda scary ....
