Getting used to eating because i know i have to not because im hungry (definitely a change) getting in my daily protein this pureed food diet is my worst nightmare and remembering to drink water which just doesnt taste the same after surgery, tastes like metal or something.. Oh and those damn protein shakes taste horrible. Im trying the isopure vanilla flaver it tastes like water down cotton.. who would of thought if have so much problem stuffing my face lol.. can anyone help me out with some recipes for stuff i can have at this stage because im drinking so much broth im going to get dehydrated from the runs but i can take anymore tuna salad and i cant think of any thing else. We should get together and open a chain of bariatric restaurants... Help plz

Hi,

I will have my surgery on February 18th and I just started doing mostly shakes and the ones I am using are great! THEY are the powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury shakes and you can get them on line. The chocolate and Vanilla are great. How was the surgery? I am a bit nervous about that....I hope the you like these shakes.

Thanks for the tip will try. Surgery was great i had a lil discomfort the first 3 days but nothing major.. gas pains were a bother but walking is the only thing that helps. Lots of weight loss im down from 277 to 251 and im only 11days post of so its all worth it. Good luck on ur surgery its definitely life changing

I am day 13 postop from VGS and I am also struggling to get my water and vitamins in every day. I can do string cheese and cottage cheese and soft eggs which is helping. I made salmon and have done the tuna of course with a little light miracle whip my dietician's idea and that has been fine. Refried beans with a little mozzarella cheese. I have done crockpot dark meat and white chicken in cream of chicken soup, one time with just low sodium chicken base, and once with onions And mild peppers just for flavor and then puréed it. Any ideas would be great. A little protein powder in my fave soup progressive light potato bacon and cheese has only 3 grams fat. Down down 23# since surgery jam 19th.

Wow sounds delicious!! Will try thanks have been racking my brain just bought a bariatric cookbook for kindle so if i find anything good will post. Congrats on the weight loss feels great doesnt it....
