WHAT ARE YOU HAVING FOR DINNER TONIGHT? Tell us! And how long is it since your sleeve?

First topic message reminder :

I thought this would be a good thread to give early sleevers some hope that eventually life will be normal again!

I am seven months and 3 weeks out, and tonight I am munching on melted cheese and ham on toast with relish (one piece is all I can manage). I might have a bowl (small) of ice cream in an hour if I get peckish later!

Three weeks one day post op and just had a small piece of baked fish with lots of sauce. Having small pieces of cheese for snacks.

Debraell - I am booked for near end of March and I am financing the surgery myself

I'm two weeks and four days out and struggling with a very thin mash potato or soup.

I was told I could eat mince but I know that would be too heavy, although I'd love to get more natural protein rather than protein powder. I'm dreaming of the day I can have some Shepards Pie.

Hi all,
I'm exactly 3 weeks out of surgery today and tonight I had steamed:
small carrot, 2  small  chat potatoes and 3 small broccoli florets then I mushed them with a fork and added a can of tuna and some soy sauce. Was delicious! I eat everything with a teaspoon as I find it helps to slow me down and make sure that my mouthfuls are the right size,
Hope that helps

9 months after sleeve. Having small piece of chicken, small amount of salad.

debraell - please ask your question in a different section or start a new thread and I will move it into the correct section for you. You won't get much of a reply in this section.

As for me for dinner last night - I had about 2 small fork fulls of cauliflower & cheese, and a small piece of pickled pork.

Then an apple cider and half a bottle of wine! ;)

I have my first appointment for a gastric sleeve in early feb.  It's the soonest I could get in.  I don't have health insurance and will finance myself.  Has anyone else done this?

MUD CRAB! That is all.

Half a marinated chicken breast, about two tbs rice and bowl of potato chips later on :)

Last night:
3 slices of sashimi
pickled sesame spinach - 3 chopsticks full
2 gyoza
2 pieces of sushi
burnt sesame ice cream

Eaten very slowly over about an hour... yummo ! Not too bad except for the ice cream (a modest serve all the same)

100 gm Prawns sauted in garlic and chilli and poached in tomato passata - 22g Protein and sooo yummy.

cheers Nini.

It has been eight months since my sleeve, and I had 40g of grilled cajun chicken with a small amount of cous cous. The cous cous was flavoured with chicken stock, peas, corn, roast red capsicum and onion.

The medallion out of a pork chop and three quarters of a small potato gratin thing (from aldi)

A cup of fruit tea for afters and a small jam tart.

Yummy Busso - think I'm going to try that one - I LOVE scallops.

Had one of my favourites...
Lightly cook chopped chicken thighs (because they stay moist), add 1-2 tsps of green curry paste, stir then add chopped onion & bacon, wait a short while then add chopped mushroom, small florets of broccoli, and a tin of reduced cream.  Cooked fresh fettucine noodles to go with but didn't have them myself.

YUM YUM..!!

2 years and 1 week after sleeve, I managed 5 scallops seared in a Moroccan, coriander and lemon sauce. yummm

3 months out from sleeve (but only three weeks into eating (mushie stage) due to a bad leak.)

Last night I had a small amount of chicken curry and soft rice..ate mostly sauce and rice. Didn't measure it though but it was only a small amount.
