When and what can we have Chinese food...???

I'm 11 days out and I'm cleared for just about everything except beef/pork and raw vegetables. (My program skips the "full liquids" and "soft food" stages)

We're heading out to Chinese food right now... I haven't decided if I want green Beans and tofu, a chicken dish, some Soup, or maybe some ma po!

Depends on your plan. But a small amount of Kung Pao chicken or Hunan Chicken are my thing.

I found this bariatric friendly Chinese page online because I was a huge (quite literally) Chinese foodie. These recipes I found look good- I havent tried them yet!

Ended up having garlic long beans with fried tofu, and some chicken curry with onions, carrots, and peppers.

Chinese Soups are great

I had Chinese food the other day with some girls from work. I got the half order of pineapple chicken, no rice, no noodles, while the others got the buffet. It was delicious, big chunks of chicken, pineapple, onion and peppers. I ate it again for lunch and supper the next day with what I brought home.

I had just broccoli and shrimp...

@@The New Kel, I am going to try the Egg Fu Yung recipe....thanks for sharing.

Assuming you are on regular foods, I get the green beans with chicken kids meal at Panda Express with veggies as the side. I give the cookie to my husband.

At ELEVEN days out? Phew! Living life on the edge... I was still on full liquids.

I was advanced pretty quickly too but part of that is because I was not enjoying the pureed stage so I asked if I could just chew the supreme crap out of the next stage of food and was given the ok.

I wasn't "enjoying" it either, but enjoying got me to the point where I needed WLS, so...

My surgeon's practice skips full liquids and mushy foods unless regular food isn't tolerated. And so far, I have tolerated everything I've eaten. I just eat a lot less than I used to, and skip carbs.

Rock on, freaky bro! i was too scared to try anything fried my entire first year.

Why do people act like progressing to the next food stage at your doctor's orders is failing your sleeve? If you're able to progress to the next stage and still make healthy choices that's one step closer to living a normal healthy life. Some of the healthiest foods are not allowed in the liquid and pureed phases and I'm sure there are plenty of mushy foods that got us to where we are today.
