Tips from OH SUPERSTARS:

Things I ate for the first 2 months after my DS......

Lots of people ask what to eat after surgery, so I kept a record of the foods that I ate for the first two months after my DS so that maybe others could get ideas for themselves.  It is up to each individual to decide if they want to follow the nutritionists plan or to devise one that works for them.  I chose to do the latter.  Unfortunately, the nutritionist taught my DS pre-op class many things that pertain to RNYers, so I chose to do what worked best for me by following suggestions of others here on the boards.  I am not a nurse, nutritionist, or doctor, these were just the things that I ate and worked for me the 2 months following surgery. 

Here's what I'm eating at two weeks out....

Cottage Cheese
Activia Yogurt
Kraft Cheese Snackables (Ea. piece is 6 g's of protein and only one ounce...colby jack or cheddar)
Egg Salad ( I chop the egg small and add PLENTY of full fat mayo)
KFC Chicken Leg
Rotisserie Chicken from Costco
Turkey breast 
Roast Beef Rolls (Deli Roast Beef with Philly cream cheese inside, yum!)
Hormel Beef Roast Au Jus (Pre-cooked in the meat section at the grocery, seriously delish!)
Cheesecake Factory Buffalo Chicken Wings w/ lots of blue cheese
Champion Pure Whey Stack Banana Scream (THE BEST protein shake I've had!)                                 (1.5 scoop=34.5g protein)
