Well you can get ideas from a book or you can explore this site. Go to the rny forum & check out the what are you eating threads for ideas, or go to Shelleys blog/website the world according to egg face for recipe ideas.
Books are nice, interacting with people who eat & modify the recipes to fit in for wls patients is nicer. Just sayin

Thank you! I'll check it out.
Try www.bariatriceating.com they have menu ideas for different stages and you can also order food. I just ordered the soup.
Btw, my weight is fine at about 130. It has stayed the same for probably 8 months.
Hello! I had the Vertical Sleeve done in December 2013. I did great for about a year. I ate healthy, no pop, very rarely ate sweets, rarely any bread, rarely pastas our rice, but I became bored with my diet and started to eat more chocolate and other sweets. I haven't been getting all the protein or water that I am supposed to have. Lately, I have been eating more unhealthy snacks than real food.
I really don't remember much from my nutritional appointments before my surgery. Looking on the internet is like trying to find a needle in a haystack! I can't seem to drink protein shakes, because I have become lactose intolerant. I tried what I use to drink, slimfast, with soymilk and Lactaid, but that doesn't work. I get sick. I can tolerate Lactaid in oatmeal, cereal, or a small glass. All I ever drink is water flavored with Mio.
I need a book that will tell me how many grams of protein and other things I need, other foods I should eat, and what kind of foods to stay away from. Like, breaded foods don't digest well for me or broccoli.
Any ideas on a book? I moved to another state so I haven't been able to go to the nutritionist or the PA that I saw before.
Thanks! Terry
It's quite a word! I used to use this screen name when I was online dating. No one ever knew what it meant.

I'm not sure if you had WLS or not, but I would avoid Pepto-Bismol. It is a salicylate (NSAID).
I hope you are feeling better.

"May your choices reflect your hopes and not your fears."
I love those! Also, I have always adored the word "pulchritudinous."
I follow a ketogenic diet post-op. I also have a diagnosis of binge eating disorder. Feel free to ask me about either!
