I really miss the crunch of foods' date=' ie like potato chips or tortilla chips. I'm looking for something that will satisfy my need to crunch. It's kind of like having the munches with no idea what to munch...any suggestions?[/quote']

If you like edamame try these but when you are on puree, chew, chew, chew 1/4 of the bag was sufficient for me. I got them at Amazon. Also you can get turkey pepperoni 17 slices = 70 calories I can do 5 only put on a plate for one minute let cool and for added Protein you can do a light laughing cow wedge 35 calories.

Look in the baby food isle of the supermarket!!! Gerber graduates have these things that look like cheese doodles and are very yummy. They crunch but melt in your mouth so its ok if youre on puree. they have different flavors. They also have wheels that come in flavors like maple and apple cinnamon. Beechnut have something similar as well... but they come in little packets. They are veggie flavored "fries" and they are yummy. :) Just remember not to pig out on em lol

Try Glenny's Low Fat Soy Crisps. I bought a case from Amazon. A serving has 70 calories, 1 gm. fat and 5 gms. of Protein. Love them!

I have tried these to from gerber roasted vegetable19=35 calories and they satisfy the crunch as well, the only bad thing is they have no nutritional value :(

Yeah I have always loved them, but these are freeze dried and are great for the puree stage!

Ok so I sent my nurse person out to the fresh market and she picked me up some kale. I broke pieces of the stalk separating at the vein, tossed in olive oil and sprinkled with sea salt. Bakes at 275 and turned half way, they were delicious. A lite tasty crispy treat =]

On mybariatricpantry.com they have Protein Bites. The ranch ones were good. The taco ones were weird but addicting.

I was told to be careful about cracker chips, pretzels, etc. as they are a "slider" food and don't give you that full feeling. I'm 6 months out and just now have tried Pork rinds. I absolutely loved them. I ate a couple with a meal though. Somehow I have managed to not snack inbetween meals.

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
