Going to girls night, dinner and a movie on Saturday. We are going to Mexican (Azteca) for dinner. I'll be exactly 32 days post op, and tolerating most things well. Anyone have ideas of what to order? Or should I play safe and get soup, or beans and cheese??

What's on your surgeon's approved list for your stage? I was allowed refried Beans fairly early. We eat out Mexican every week and I order a side of beans and cheese. Yummy!!

I've been eating lots of refried beans! I will JUST be starting on solid foods... Just don't want to end up feeling icky. I really want to try some shrimp of some kind... Wonder if I should wait longer though...

If you are tolerating things well try a chicken taco and some Beans. Whatever you like! You can bring home what you can't eat.

Refried beans

I had a similar function about the same amount of time post op. I went the safe route with chicken tortilla soup. I couldn't even eat half the cup but it was easy on my tummy. Since I had kept my WLS private, I didn't want to try a new food so soon and risk a bad reaction in a public place with people I knew.

Beans and cheese would also be great. I chose the soup for the added Protein, and less carbs.

I LOVE Mexican food. Sooo When I started the solids phase a single cheese enchilada was a very good friend of mine. That early out I was able to eat about 3/4 of one. Now I will eat one with a little refried beans.

I started eating cocktail shrimp at about 4 weeks. I do eat a lot of Beans and cheese with taco sauce and a little bit of taco meat. It's really satisfying for me. :-)
