I'm not to actual food stage yet; but, I will be there byValentines Day, and I want to make grilled shrimp skewers.

How did y'all do with shrimp after surgery? Did it go down ok?

I was able to eat shrimp....at first only 1. Now I'm able to get down 3-4 jumbo and feel full. There is actually this shrimp cocktail Soup at the Mexican restaurant near my house that is incredible.

I tried shrimp for the 1st time when I was 4 weeks post-op, and they went down fine.

I've made many attempts to have shrimps...one day fine the next Ms. sleeve does not like it....

Im 2 months post op and I have had shrimp. The most I can't eat is one or maybe two if they're small . It goes down well I just make sure to chew a lot

I'm 4 weeks out and ate 4 shrimp today. So far so good

My first "hankering" was for shrimp. I'm on mushy, chew like there's no tomorrow, soft foods. So last night I ate 4-5 med sized boiled shrimp. They were wonderful and not painful.

grilled or boiled......yes.....fried.......no!!

I say try them and see I've tried shrimp cause i really use to like them but my new tummy doesn't

I can eat them fine just not the breaded ones !

The first time I tried them I ate too fast and had pain. Been fine ever since. Just take it slow.

I think I had shrimp around 8 weeks out. I was able to eat 2 jumbos. Now I can eat 4 big shrimp or 6 med sometimes not even that as shrimp tend to stuff me.

I only do steamed, bbq, or broiled. I particularly like them bbq'd over cedar, pecan, or apple woods. I used to love sweet grilling sauce but stay away due to sugar. Like red meat and chicken, I have to eat it slowly. Otherwise my sleeve will get angry and turn against me. Lol!
