Chinese Food



Recommended Posts

I'm eating some shrimp egg foo young today. With the gravy and eating one ounce at a time, I think the pouch will accept it. Will sprinkle some unflavored Protein Powder on it also so with the Protein from egg and shrimp and protein powder, sounds like a nice protein filled meal!!!!!

Good for you! Hope that you are doing well with your surgery. It's amazing that you are able to eat 2 weeks post op and lots of luck with that. I have to wait a while for my revision surgery and I am petrified of having it. I just do not want to give up sugar in my coffee (because I am allergic to the artificial sweetners) and the eating and drinking.

Hopefully, your acid reflux is now non existent from what I hear about this surgery! Best wishes to you always.

Stephen

I had Chinese food last night! Beef and broccoli with sauce on the side. Went down very well, and totally hit the spot! I am 4 weeks post-op. I think I'm going to eat the leftovers for lunch in a few minutes!

Egg foo young is LOADED with fat and fried in oil ... most Chinese foods are loaded with fats and oils unless you get the steamed healthy kind. I stay far, far away from Chinese way, way too many calories.

Same. I could really go for a crab Rangoon but alas, it's not good for me. Those are the kinds of foods I ate that got me to my heaviest weight. I will stay away.

I miss crab Rangoon too but it's so awful for us. Anything to avoid pain and nausea.

Yup. I did find a recipe for crab Rangoon dip that's made with light cream cheese. And you can baked the wonton skins. So it won't be as bad but definitely will be a special occasion food.

That sounds so good, Please do share your crab Rangoon dip recipe, it would be much appreciated.

I absolutely can not tolerate any type of Chinese food and it used to be my absolute favorite. After two horrible experiences with it, I don't miss it or crave it at all.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
