My favorite was wonton soup! I'm so over it now...but steamed shrimp or chicken and broccoli is good or they have mixed vegetables stir fried...I've always asked for steamed...they gave me so much veggies I had enough to last me a whole week.

Most places will steam vegetables for you and you can ask for no MSG, salt etc. Chinese food is delish, but be careful as it is usually loaded with fat and salt. Well, which is why it taste so darn good.

It gets easier. I find that anything in a sauce goes down easily. And I don't really worry about calories from the sauces. At 700-900 calories a day, we have room to spare so I don't think they'll hurt me too much.

if you look the various Chinese food dishes up for their caloric values you may find that even a small portion of something benign like chicken and Broccoli will be at or above that 700-900 mark for just the one meal.

Man, I've been dying for chinese.... Sesame chicken... But I can eat so little at a time, I know I would end up eating a little then wasting it. Maybe later down the road...

They usually have a heathy option with no sugar, no msg, etc. I LOVE Chinese food. I don't eat anything breaded or fried. Love crab rangoons, but that is what got me to a size 24. Now, I only do shrimp with snowpeas and skip the rice. 7months out for me,,,, I can usually eat about 5 shrimp.

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
