Show Of Hands (Part 2)



Recommended Posts

First off thank you all for the overwhelming response to my inquiry and just as many of you hoped, I am moving forward with the idea. Now I have a BIG opportunity for you to possibly get EXACTLY what you want from a Beri-Delicious meal.

What are some of your favorite "Regular Bariatric" meals? No matter if you are at the Clear liquids, full liquids, puree, protien shakes, soft foods, or full solids.

Let your voice be heard! I may even name a meal after you!

Cheesy chicken bake....I don't know off the top of my head the exacts of how to make but its chicken breast strips in cream of mushroom Soup topped with cheddar cheese...baked...delicious!!! Makes the chicken not so hard to eat because it makes it very tender and juicy.

My kids call it "bird's nest" but it's ground beef (drained really well & rinsed) mixed with sauteed onions, green Beans and crem of mushroom Soup on top of scalloped potatoes (they have to be really tender)!

I serve something very similar but slightly different in presentation. I take a butterflied chicken cutlet and make roulade stuffed with aromatics. It's pan seared then baked with a seasoned cheese and panko bread crumbs (pouch friendly amount) for crunch. Delicious!!!

I'm doing a demonstration at the November support group for this recipe but with turkey breast for thanksgiving. Stuffed with a pouch-friendly stuffing that the whole family would love.

God before anything, Family before anyone, Home before anywhere. Priority..

For those in the supper light eating stage after purée food, my mom made me cucumber slices and took a small hole out of it and added a flat olive. It made me feel like I had appetizers!! It was just bursting with flavors.

I did make a version of Shepard's Pie. No corn, though! I substituted peas in place of the corn! It was yummy & pouch friendly, too!

Still on Protein shakes at the moment - SO sick of them! But what's been getting me through is my Reeses shakes, lol.

chocolate Protein shake, blended with ice, a little 1% milk, and a tbsp of creamy Peanut Butter. What a difference it makes! The pb is really the kicker - very good in a vanilla Protein shake too!

Moving onto soft foods on Monday - can't wait to start trying some of these food ideas!!!

Meatloaf, with mashed potatoes and fat free gravy and green Beans.

I can bet it would be good with mashed califlower when a chef puts the magic touch of spices in it :) I sure would try it.

OH I got an idea too....you know those smoothies in a pouch in the freezer. Well how about Protein shakes with added fruit or other bits you can blend :)

Oh my I have made a lighter chicken ala king minus the pastry and that feels good in my belly. Homemade Soups are my favorite. Us PA dutch know how to make the best comfort Soups ever! 'naked ravioli' ... Ricotta, egg, cheese, spices and a little sauce. Egg, goat cheese omelette with fresh basil and oregano yum! Also a little polenta topped with a homemade sausage and Tomato sauce. but I am craving two dishes my brother posted on instagram last night. Gonna have him make them for me this weekend.

Yum I do that. The skins don't go down well for me. How about you? For the kids I put it on a piece of toast with mayo.< /p>

My favorite meal right now is my take on a French dip sandwich. I use 100% whole wheat flat bread (about a 1wide inch strip) put roast beef & skim mozzarella, wrap & dip in a low sodium au jus. It's healthy & comforting oh.... And easy! Something my kids will eat as well. Also love taco Soup. I use 3 to 4 different kinds of Beans and my moms home made canned tomatoes (perfect blend of spicy and yum!) It's packed with Protein and easy on the pouch.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
