I made some salmon, mashed potatoes and French style green beans tonight. The salmon has lemon, pepper And a touch of brown sugar ( super small amt). It was great and I spent 3 hour or so eatting it! Man was just a little filling!

How far are you out? Just wondering when I can eat something like that. I'm on my liquid preop diet right now and just about any food looks amazing lol.

I'm not allowed veggies yet. I can have mashed potatoes IF I manage to get all my Protein in first.

Sounds like a great dinner though

Lets not get too excited...he's presurgery, lol. He can still eat delicious stuff like that. I am pre surgery diet.

Pre-op that was my fave meal! Ohhhh! I would LOVE some lemon pepper salmon

Omg it would take me all day to eat that! Haven't been brave enough for mashed potatoes or anything starchy yet. Can you tolerate them well? Looks super yummy!

Ohhh I ate it all. . . . . Over 2.5 meals lol

I am supposed to be shooting for 1/3 cup of food 6 times a day. The mashed is less than 1/4 cup and same for green Beans with a 3oz piece o salmon. I would take a few small bites and cover it, put it in microwave and reheat when ready

Mashed potatoes are my best friend! I purée up turkey or add some homemade sugar free spaghetti sauce. Odd I know but it's great!

I have yet to dump but the salmon did start to get stuck, I knew the minute I swallowed that I hadn't chewed enough but no committing just 5 minutes of saliva forming outchy pouchy.

I am getting 2 8 oz Protein shakes a day with skim milk totalling 65.6g protein. With the food I should be close to 100 a day. I just try to take it slow

Whoa whoa aren't you not even 2 weeks out? You're allowed potatoes? I can't have potatoes or ant starch for a year. How we're you able to eat that much this soon?

I had mashed potatoes and sweet potatoe 5 weeks out. I don't eat bread but do use baked potatoe too, but I'm out 5 months

My surgeon said potatoes are a great option but no rice or other starchy foods though. And I said I ate it over almost 3 meal periods silly that's 3 hours .

I can't get it 6 times a day so I shoot for 4. 30 lbs down and counting

I move on to Cheerios and the like next week. Just softer foods.

It's funny how each surgeon and dietician are different lol.

Which totals out to less than 1/3 cup for each so less than I am supposed to eat

Each surgeon is different. And it also depends on you and what you can tolerate. Those potatoes look soooooo good!!
