Difficulty Trying New Foods

[jenneliza 257]

I'm 8 weeks out from surgery and having trouble introducing new foods. Apparently in now lactose intolerant. I can handle cheese but not yogurt or milk. Also meats don't sit very well with me either. Fruits and veggies hurt my pouch and shakes make me gag now. I've been eating mostly eggs, Beans, and cheese every day and getting so sick of it! Any suggestions? Also we eat almost every meal away from home... So grab and go is the best for us!

I have the same issues... And I 6 months out. Rotisserie chicken from the Walmart deli is my friend. I peel back the skin and the chicken is so moist. I can still eat very little but at least it's Protein and I can get it down. Good luck

How about tuna? Chili?

Tuna makes me sick now and I can do meatless chilli but I'm sick of it. Now that I think of it most foods make me nauseous.

Hang in there. I couldn't eat anything. No salad no meat nothing now I can eat almost anything I think. Except chicken & pork. I had a piece of home made lasagna but I will not go back to eating Pasta rice and bread. I will eat it occasionally or twice a week.
