8 Week Shopping List



Recommended Posts

My Dr has released me to pretty much anything at this point (8 weeks post op).

I still struggle with a few foods but as long as I eat slow and stop with the first sense of discomfort, I'm ok.

I am about to go grocery shopping and just wanted some ideas from everyone of your staple foods.

tuna and salmon packets, turkey meatballs, eggs, PB2, Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, avocados, frozen artichoke hearts, asparagus (I like the frozen grilled asparagus from Trader Joe's), cauliflower rice (frozen from Trader Joe's), sardines, canned mackerel, frozen scallops, frozen shrimp, Babybel cheese, fresh mozzarella cheese sticks, unsweetened vanilla cashew milk (for mixing Protein Shakes etc.), frozen turkey burgers, spicy refried Beans, spicy chicken sausage.

I rely a lot on frozen meat & veggies, as well as tinned meat, because I live alone and couldn't possibly get through fresh meat or fish before it goes bad unless I ate the same thing for every meal (scallops for Breakfast lunch and dinner) for three days in a row!

My husband loves smoked salmon while I prefer packaged tuna. I love tuna mixed with diced apples, a little sweet pickles, and light mayo. Sounds weird but so good. Rotisserie chickens fix 3-4 meals. My husband and I eat completely different, but I keep all staples, cottage cheese, cream cheese, turkey meatballs, you name it, in the fridge and freezer and our meals are quick and easy!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
