Do you have a favorite food as a "sleever?"



Recommended Posts

Depending on what stage you're at, do you have a favorite food?

I'm on full liquids, but one of my favorites has to be: 3 tablespoons of mashed potatoes, 1 tablespoons of melted shredded cheese, and 1 tablespoons of Tomato sauce. Soooooo tasty!!!

Clear liquids: Sleepy Time Tea

Full liquids: Greek Yogurt thinned with Water and sweetened with Splenda

Early restaurant meal: Crab cocktail

First veggie favorite: frozen mixed veggies

Nowadays I don't really have a favorite. I rotate among a pretty wide array of Proteins, veggies, fruits, and whole grains.

I don't know what stage exactly I'm on yet but my favorite food right now is salmon sashimi. I LOVE IT! I did not like sashimi before surgery but now, dipped in some soy sauce, I'm in heaven. :)

Second favorite, though not asked, is chicken Soup (made with mixed vegetables, lots of great seasonings, and a little gravy).

I have always liked seafood, but since I've been on a regular diet, I cannot get enough king or snow crab legs. Such a yummy treat and high in Protein, too.

Last night we had baked salmon, mixed veggies (bok choi, zucchini, squash and chinese cabbage) and some whole grain brown rice. Yes, I'd have to say this is my favorite.

My tastes truly have changed a lot. I do crave bad things but I end up feeling sick when I eat them. Yes, I eat bad stuff... I'm not perfect. ;-) But, I really do love and crave good healthy and nutritious food now more than ever.

Pre-op I hated cottage cheese and now I can't get enough. Darigold pineapple cottage cheese mixed with black cherry Greek yogurt... I could live off it!

Question? How do you cook bok choy? I have always wanted to try it but I'm clueless as to how to cook it

Sometimes I will boil it, just like spinach. If you get the large size cut them up a bit smaller. The end part looks like celery, I cut that up the same. When I do mixed veggies I'll do it as a stir fry using EVOO. Don't need a lot because it creates it's own juices too. :)

Clear: sugar free Gatoraid

Full: 6 Star whey Isloate chocolate Protein mixed with Water and heavy cream

Mushy: Black refried Beans, pineapple salsa, chipotle aioli, and goat cheese mixture.

Now: Basil Fried Rice-but instead of rice I make cauliflower rice(I cut carbs/sugars). It is amazing and filling. Below is the you tube video telling you how to make it.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
