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

Thanks I will.

FF retried beans were on my liquids list I could start the week after surgery....I thinned them a bit with chicken stock while I was on liquids but once I went to mushies I started going thicker with them. I now eat them at the consistency they come out of the can at with no problems... (Other than gas! Yay beans!!!) I can only do an ounce at a time so maybe that's a difference but like I said, it's one of the first foods my nutritionist approves post-op! Good luck!!!

HW 312, pre-op (lap-band) 294, pre-op (RNY) 255, surgery date 2/11/13, goal weight 154, current weight 234.8

I'm having a hard time trying to figure out what to have for dinner these days. Chicken used to sit very well, but not any more and even if its very moist or in something liquidy like soup. Matter of fact, no meat is settling well in my tummy. Feels soo heavy and sharp. Was previously able to eat salmon, not anymore, now I think shrimp is it. :(

I had egg salad with crackers

We all need someone to say why are you eating that. It took me an hour and 1/2 to eat it. I most likely won't again. It was a head hunger and I know it. A relapse in judgement to see if I could. And yep it didn't sit very well with me. It's kinda like when folks eat the FF refried beans or Alfredo noodles or mash potatoes. Really they shouldn't be' date=' but some how they make it sound like its good for you. And it's not. I do make minor slips and it's over. It's like buying a pint of chocolate ice cream. Before surgery I could eat that whole pint in 30 mins. Now I can't tolerate 4 teaspoons of it. And it does not set well in my stomach. So I will not eat it anymore. I can't eat yogurt either not any kind of it. Texture is a big thing to me now. So no I don't mine if you ask what was I thinking because I asked myself that same question[/quote']

This may help I hope. My nut told me to take 1/2 hour to eat - no more & no less. Maybe this is something you could adopt & prevent that bad full tummy feeling? Also, I read on Hungry Girl about adding a tiny amount of low fat graham cracker crumbled into key lime yogurt so it will have some crunch like a pie. Just tried it with vanilla (1/4 of a "sheet") & it did help with texture. Maybe also try mixing it with fruit or something else to help with texture or are you just done, done, done with Yogurt? I got that way about cottage cheese which I used to love so I get it if that's the case.

I used to like yogurt but they dont have the 99% fat free anymore they have light or original. I tried different brands and just cant stand it. I try not to Eat much fruit because of no real nutrition value to it and to high in carbs. I may not do some things well but i do try to stay in the boundaries of the limits that are set for us. I do push it a bit but then i know after the pain not ever again

Wendys small chili

Not eating much of anything today.. I'm having trouble eating anything today. I have had just a few bites of food today. Maybe be better tomorrow... ????

I have run across some very high protein low sugar yogurt. It called SIGGI'S. I found it at Wegmans. It Icelandic style yogurt and it is pricey but it has 14 grms protein and only 9 sugar. Very thick and creamy 8 flavors.

I tried Hungry Girl's version of Chicken Cordon Bleu. OMG it was so good. Just 3 ingredients - chicken breast, ham & a wedge of laughing cow. Couldn't finish it but it was delicious.

God I love Wegmans!

Meat & solids still not sitting too well, so unsweetened applesauce and a bottle of water.

Dannon and Yoplait both now have low sugar Greek yogurt. The strawberry and vanilla flavors only have 7g sugar. Other flavors too, but I didn't look at those.
