I need snack ideas. I eat the same thing every day in between Breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and I am bored.

I can eat anything at this point. I am 7 weeks post op

Thanks

My Snacks are usually reduced fat string cheese, Dannon Light & Fit Greek Yogurt with some granola or Kashi Cereal mixed in, 1 oz. of dry roasted lightly salted peanuts, some sort of meat stick (like a beef stick, but usually turkey instead), and Protein Bars.< /p>

I have light and lively greek yogurt, it's only 80 calories and they are so good. I have snack

bags of thin pretzel sticks, 100 calories per bag and if I want something a little sweet I get

animal crackers, 16 crackers are 120 calories. I know they have carbs, but I am still losing

weight so I am good with them. Every now and then I will have 2 oz of ice cream but that is not

much. I can't eat much at a time so when I want something I eat it but only a small amount. If

you don't have something that you want every now and then you will get board and do things you

should not. This is a lifetime change and it is not easy for any of us. It is depressing some

times when I am out with family and friends and I can't eat. My family understands and they are

an inspiration to me. I eat anything that I want to eat after I get my Protein in and it is

working for me. Try different things, I found that my taste buds have changed. I can't eat the

bad things that I use to because it tastes bad now. I think that is normal to. I keep my calories

at 800 - 1200.

corkyg: I hurt when I first take a bite of something. The Dr. gave me a prescription for hyoscyamine

I put one under my tongue 1 hour before I eat and it really helps with swallowing and it eases the

pain when I eat. They did an upper G.I. and found that when I eat my stomach has spams. You might

want to discuss this with your surgeon. I don't know if it is common after sleeve surgery. I hope

it gets better for you.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
