Can anyone share what they are eating.

I never feel really hungry and when I eat I don't feel a full feeling. 

Here is my day yesterday:

Breakfast - South Beach bar

Lunch - 4 small boiled shrimp and small salad (I mean small)

Snack - 8 almonds

Dinner - 5 strips of chicken

Snack - An Orange

Is this too much for someone who is a month out of surgery.  I have lost 35 pounds this past month and 10 pounds prior to surgery, so I'm happy, I just don't want to screw up.

Thanks,

I think that's about right (although I can't remember eating oranges that early out). As for the portions, at this point your pouch will let you know if it's too much. Just stay within your guidelines, eat slowly and pay attention to your pouch.

This is my usual day:

9AM - Half Bagel w/ cream cheese & 3 Turkey Bacons
12PM - Half Turkey sandwich on wheat
2PM - Myoplex Lite protein drink
2:30PM - Other half of Turkey sandwich
5PM - Apple or Orange & String Cheese and crackers
7PM - Baked Chicken Thigh, veggies and a few spoons of rice
10PM - Bowl of cereal

Wow.. I'm a month out. This is typical day for me:

830am - 3oz cottage cheese with block olives
Noon - 3 oz tuna or whatever puree I made
6pm - 3-4 oz of tuna or whatever puree i made
9pm - 4-6 slices of turkey pepperoni or a dreyer's fruit bar

Today I've been nursing a sugar free red bull cause I didn't sleep much last night. and of course water throughout.

Should i actually be eating more? I was doing a protein shake in the morning, but I just need a break from that stuff for a bit. Can't stand the taste anymore.

 About twice a year I do an all you can eat "grass-fed" meat, salmon and veggie diet for about ten days to keep me in "fat burning mode."

I have one protein shake (about 40 grams)

Drink about 3-4 tbsps of flax oil in the a.m.

Some walnuts throughout the day

Food processed lamb, grass fed Australia beef or venison whenever I want it (grass-fed =omega 3)
Followed with salad

Salmon whenever I want it.

I don't feel weak or hungry.

I always (after a few weeks post op) added a small amount of cooked spinach.  I would get frozen spinach, add a small amount of water and salt.  I'd cook about 2 or 3 oz in the microwave...Spinach has potassium and iron.  I still have spinach everyday...but just 1 or 2 oz.  Brian

Breakfast was a lone poached egg.  Snacked on few pieces of string cheese through out the day.  Ate the cheese and ham out of a Lunchable, left the crackers alone.  Sig other and I split a two meat plate, chicken and pork, at a local Bar-B-Q for supper.  Have to confess my sins...we polished off the last of the SF pecan pie that was in the fridge for desert after we moved her office around. 

Shrimp are great protein!  Have local seafood joint we raid quite often that has 1/2 lb or pound combination buckets.  One of those and spliting the side salad...we set.

2 months out.

breakfast today is 3/4 oz cheese and 4 oz lite fat free yogurt

lunch today will be a can of tuna - right outta the can

dinner prolly be a few medium eggs with cheese sprinkled

I don't snack per my surgeons advice.

i rarely have hunger pains and if I do it is at night when i stay up too late.

I started tracking my eating and exercise on dailyplate.com when I was about 6 wks out because I wasn't sure if what I was doing was right. I found it to be a very handy tool although I've now gotten out of the habit. I found that I was eating about 1400 calories per day and so I cut it back to about 1000 - 1100. My primary food sources at that poinnt were scrambled eggs, refried beans, grilled chicken, tuna salad, whole grain crackers and whole grain tortillas. I'd suggest to  you that you start tracking what you eat at one of those websites. It helps you make sure that you're getting enough protein and enough water in every day. And it kinda motivates you to exercise because you can see the amt of calories burned.

Thanks to all for the input!

At one month out my daily meals were

Breakfast  1 egg poached, soft boiled or scrambled (fat free PAM)

Snack  3 oz flavored yogurt no actual fruit

Lunch  3 oz cottage cheese

Dinner  3 oz chicken, turkey, or fish

Snack  3 oz flavored yogurt

64 oz fluids of which at least 16 had to be skim or 1/2% milk

Surgeon was only interested in protein.  He did not introducte vegies until I was 3 months out and fruit until six months out.  I still do not eat citrus or pineapple.   Concerns about the membrance getting stuck.  I had to have the outlet from the pouch dilated twice because it closed from scar tissue growth.
