January 2020 Surgery Date

  • Popular Post

Let's make this the official January surgery date thread. I will be having my surgery on 1/31/2020. I was certain that I was going to have the vsg, but I'm learning more and leaning towards the rouxny (rny) gastric bypass. Whatever you decide, let's get this thread started and support one another. I'm just starting it, but anyone can feel free to jump in and keep it going ?.

So I bake my chicken. Also I use chicken thighs not breast so they have more moisture. I do boneless skinless. I marinate them and then bake them. The chicken chili was done in a crock pot I place the chicken in frozen. One breast has 3 grams fat and one thigh has 5 grams. So not a big difference.
My husband loves chicken thighs so it won't be hard to get him to cook that for me! I cant even start chunks of meat or anything like that till after my soft foods phase which is the 24th-1st. So I guess 6 weeks out ? Ugh.

I start tomorrow and a Buffalo chicken puree is first on my list. I'll keep you posted !

Please share your recipe if it turns out well.

Unjury southwest taco chili protein powder in 6oz warm water, 1 oz fresh snow crab, 1/2 oz Parmesan, mozzarella cheese blend. So delicious and was able to eat the full cup with no restriction.

I mixed avocado with refried Beans and that was very tasty.

I’m going to have to try that.

So I tried the buffalo chicken puree and it's amazing!

All I did was use one can of chicken, a spoonful of sour cream, a spoonful of Mayo, a good pouring of Frank's red hot, a shakeful of crumbled blue cheese and a little ranch dressing. Feel free to sub out for yogurt or low fat versions.

I put everything in a food processor and blended the crap outta it. It's so good !

The recipe sounds good! However, something about pureed chicken just makes me go ewww, but not pureed sounds yummy.. Next week, I'll be trying it, though.

It’s so nice that you and SarahSingh are making delicious recipes and sharing them with us. I will definitely be trying your chicken recipe. Would you mind posting your week 5&6 diet? I’m ending week 5 tomorrow and still not able to eat more than 1oz of soft food, except snow crab, and after eating it every day this week I’ve even had enough of that.

Hey Taj I private msg my solid food diet. But idk if u got it. It wouldn’t let me post to the group that day and even when I sent the msg it took forever to send so maybe it didn’t go through?
My surgeon changes Akem if these things. This is made by the nutritionist and other people only a small part is by the surgeon. Also there r other surgeons in the same office suing the same material so they have to come to an “agreement” lol and meet in the middle of view and theories what’s best.
