3wks out tacos?



Recommended Posts

@@sc101071 I'm fairly certain taco shells aren't on there. Taco shells could cause complications. Many plans are different and we should be following our own plans or questioning changes with our own surgeon. Depending on what your idea of a taco - I would not be allowed lettuce or Tomato at 3 weeks. I would only be allowed pureed meat, melted cheese and sour cream. So my answer would be - no I can't have tacos.

I wasn't allowed veggies until well past 6 weeks and even then, my NP frowned on anything like lettuce as it contains so little nutrients. Tomatoes and anything else with seeds was also a no no. FOR ME.

Beans and cheese? YUP. Sour cream? Absolutely (but I used plain greek yogurt instead). meat and veggies? Not quite yet...

But again. FOR ME. I even have that disclaimer in my signature. You know, so I don't come across as SMUG. ;)

Odd thing? My NUT who is very strict, makes no restriction on full fat products- dressing, sour cream, mayo, BBQ Sauce etc. Her opinion on Condiments is that because of the small volume of food we consume, we aren't eating THAT much of a particular condiment, so have at. Her opinion is regular dressing tastes better so enjoy the scant teaspoon you will likely need.

I, too, eat full fat everything. The only thing I really watch is sugar and carbs. Full fat tastes better, keeps me full longer and is much more satisfying. Bring on the fat and bring on the flavor!!

I too eat full fat everything, it's more natural not as many carbs either. They add "flavorings" in the form of carbs to "low fat" or "light" to give it taste.

Ok so crazy story. I am 2 weeks preop. I was in the hospital all of Labor Day weekend. So while there I watch my 600 pound life. The whole show she was addicted to Mexican food. I sat there for 2 hours watching that. I couldn't stop thinking about it. I have not had a craving for anything till then. So on our way home yesterday I stopped at Taco Bell got a regular taco scooped out a tiny bit of meat tasted great. Got home 15 minutes later and was in the bathroom for an hour. So yeah I'm over tacos. Lol

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
