What ya eating tonight?

I had a small sweet potato, with a tablespoon of i cant believe its butter,

And i boiled a boneless skinless chicken breast. With salt and pepper, curry, garlic powder and some soul food seasoning. After it cooked i put a tablespoon of BBQ sauce to the side so the bites of chicken wouldnt be to dry,

All was good, filled up quick even tho i was slow eating

1/2-can of Chef-boyar-dee ravioli' date=' probably not the best decision, but it was soft and my pouch had a rough day.[/quote']

How far along are you? When can we eat chef-boyar-dee? He is my favorite chef.

Doctors should tell people that about strictures. I was not aware that dehydration was one of the main causes.

Thank you for sharing.

I work outdoors all yr long so after being off after surgery for seven weeks , I returned &on day five dehydration set in quick two hrs & no water is all it took. My esophageaous started closing where it intersects w/small intestine but amost everything comes back up due to my forgetting to sip, sip, sip &keep water handy lesson learned.now I'm on surgery list for 25th to dilate enough for food passage. Gotta get protein by shakes til then.

I am not sure if I am "suppose" to eat ravioli's. In fact I know that I am not, because of the noodle portion. In fact today was the first time to eat this. I am almost 5-weeks post op and I have had Zero complications. So, I take all of those things into consideration. I get 70-oz of water each day and also drink protein shakes without issue.

However, I mush them with a fork and they give me protein. It is quick and easy as well.

I had 2 ozs of chicken with some tomato paste and mozzarella cheese.

I tried and failed at eating some leftover potroast. My pouch said NOPE. Then it said nope a couple more times for good measure.

Lol, just so your pouch made sure you knew it didn't like leftover pot roast!

I've have this problem with left over roasts, too. I chop them up and make them into chili. Especially pork roast. Works out great! And no waste. I will freeze the chili in small portions as well. Just an idea for you.

That's a great idea. I'd thought about repurposing it into a chili or curry, but have felt so uninspired to cook the past few days I thought it would be fine to just eat as it one more time. Nope.

On the road so its wendys Chile

Can't argue with the pouch. And it likes to reinforce the lesson so you don't forget. :-)

I ate yogurt. My husbands sick so I made a big pot of homemade soup for him. Then I wasn't feeling much like soup. :-)

True true pouch knows best :)

I have a structure &on fluids until next Friday when I go back into the hospital for repair/fixing.ita a lesson learned to never get DEHYDRATED' date=' that's the most common reason for strictures .lack of fluid .[/quote']

I don't think that is true. They don't know why some patients get strictures and others don't. I asked my doctors about strictures before surgery.

Ate some grapes and have been intermittently on the toilet since. tmi.

I guess grapes and frankentummy don't get along.
