I am 7 weeks in. I still have no idea what to eat. I’ll tell you what I ate yesterday.

Morning: 1 cup fairlife milk (120 cals)

Lunch: 2 cheese ball snacks (140 cals)

Snack: Plum

Snack: 1/2 cup turkey chili

Dinner: 4 thin slices of steak

Snack: 1/2 cup Wendy’s chili

See? I just suck at eating. Also, I don’t know what to eat if I’m out. I want something easy.

You need to speak with your surgeon on a meal plan. Seems to me you are not eating enough protein with what you listed. Should be getting approximately 60 grams of protein per day.

While everyone is different, you should go by what your team has given you for what to eat and how much.

Here is my typical day.

Breakfast: Premier Protein Shake

Lunch: Pan Seared Shrimp w/ cajun seasoning 3 oz

Snack: Harvest Snaps (I need to quit these because I end up eating too many)

Dinner: Varies - usually something my my recipe list for example Greek Turkey Burger, Salmon, Steak, panned seared tilapia, chicken (cooked in a variety of ways NOT fried) - most meat is 3-4 oz. I will often have a tiny little spinach salad topped with 1 sliced strawberry, 1 T of blue cheese, and 1 t goddess dressing or a small serving of sauteed onions w/ squash or zucchini.

Sometimes, I will have some of my dinner and then save some of a snack. Most days I'm getting anywhere from 70-90 g of protein. There have been a few days where I was 60-70 and a few days where I was over 90.

I would be happy to share my recipe document with you if you would like just drop me a message.

If I'm out, it depends on where I go, but if it's fast food, whatever I order would most likely be served protein style (no bun). I've gone out for sushi and order with light or no rice, gyros and just had the meat, and fajitas.

My 7 weeks starts Monday, but I eat 4-6 small meals per day avg 100 cal per serving. I only have shakes now if I know I won't meet my protein goals or want to add some to my coffee (1/3 bottle with decaf coffee). 40cal, 10 gr protein
My breakfast is often light and fit dannon yogurt 80cal, 13 g protein with 2 Tbsp of ground flax 70 cal
Lunch Tuna creations 70 cal, 15 gr protein. 2 oz cottage cheese 40 cal, 8 gr protein
2nd lunch 2 oz deli turkey 12g protein cheese stick , 5 gr protein
Dinner 2 oz chicken, 14 gr protein, cottage cheese 2oz 8 gr protein
If I'm still short I add peanut butter or other high protein snack.

I mix up my meals, but work day lunches tend to go tuna just because I don't have to measure.

My daily cals are 600 - 700 pending day of week.

My eating plan is:

• real food, not processed
• eat when I'm hungry, stop when I'm not
• lay off the booze.

I can only remember three rules at a time...seems to be working quite well! ?

Hahaha... I like the lay off the booze part. Isn't it legal to buy beer at 15 or 16 in the UK as long as you're having a meal? That's awesome!

No - you've got to be 18 to buy booze. But children can go in a pub as long as they're with adults who order food. Then they can have a sneaky sip of dad's beer when he's not looking! ?
