Shrimp?

How soon did everyone start to have shrimp? I'm 6 weeks out and I have been having flaky fish and tuna with over steamed or over baked veggies. It settles fine with me. I was wondering what about shrimp though if it might be too heavy……I have a recipe that includes shrimp but I don't want to damage my sleeve or feel sick.

  • Shrimp was the first thing I ate when I could have 'real' foods. It is still the easiest thing for me to eat.

  • As long as u chew it well, u should have no prob. I love shrimp and it is a great source of protein. Had it this week. Enjoy..

  • Shrimp has been one of the best things for my sleeve...absolutely no problems...and the best part is how few calories it is for so much protein. I keep it in the house pretty much all the time now!

I am six weeks out and had shrimp for the first time today. I cut up 3 oz of cooked shrimp with some cocktail sauce. I had to make sure I chewed it well but it went down easy.

Spinach or broccoli

I am pretty simple with any type of protein right now but I usually grill shrimp (in the oven) and make a shish kebab: shrimp, mushrooms, cherry tomato’s, and a few peppers, sprinkle with a tad bit of olive oil and a little seasoning of your choice. The good thing about shrimp is that it does not need a lot of seasoning and very easy to cook and save for the week.
