My Lunch: A Pictorial Attempt To Show You Life Will Be Normal



Recommended Posts

Prime rib (fat trimmed), mashed potatoes and a bit of broccoli (some veggies are still hard to eat depending on the day). I'm nearly three months out :)

Finally in the party! The attached image is a typical lunch for me at almost three years out. It's four romaine leaves, 8 cherry tomatoes, 2 oz. chicken breast, 1 slice whole wheat bread, and 2 Tbsp lite Caesar dressing.

No I used the greek yogurt to add creaminess to the chicken salad without using much mayo. I use 1 tbs mayo and two tbs greek yogurt. Although I have used greek yogurt in my soup before I do like it.

Our dinner tonight. pizza toppings minus crust. Surprisingly filling but not as low dal as some other options. I don't care. Enjoyed it thoroughly and logged it in MFP as best I could.

Gamergirl have you tried making the crust from cauliflower ? Sounds crazy but tastes fantastic

lunch today. New weight watchers fire roasted veggie Soup with 1/3 cup black beams, three ounces costco rotisserie chicken and a small handful of fresh spinach. Cooked the soup 2.5 minutes, then added the chicken, Beans, and spinach and cited another 1.5 minutes. Yum!

If you consider eating Indian food normal that is :)

So if you're worrying you won't be able to eat or enjoy your food or be normal? Here's what I made for lunch today. Brown rice for the kids, ground beef curry, cucumber/tomato/Greek yogurt salad, palak paneer (spinach. with a homemade cheese). Apart from the rice, all good for us sleevers to eat.

I sometimes see people thinking they won't enjoy food, or that they can only have baked chicken and steamed vegetables. SO not true. I make Indian, Thai, Ethiopian, Greek etc all the time.

What is true however, is that my two kids (23 and 13) and my husband and I all ate--and we finished about a fourth of the food you see here :)

Feel free to post pics of what you're enjoying today that is sleeve friendly.

Yum

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?
