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!

Tonight I had not quite 1/2 a teriyaki chicken steak (fillet) from Lenards with about 3 tablespoons of mushroom and zuchini lightly fried with garlic. Of course all smothered in lashings of gravy. Almost 5 months out.

Two months out (boy has that flown !)

Had roast lamb for dinner - probably about five mouthfulls with gravy, third of a potato, and a tiny head of broccoli.

Cheers,

W2B :)

Last night I went out for dinner and had curry chicken.

Managed approx 1/4 cup.

Had left over of the curry tonight, had a little bit less than 1/4 cup.

And a mini wagon wheel lol.

5 months out.

Tonight I am having Roast Lamb cooked in the slow cooker - mmmm sittiing here drooling as it smells so delicious cooking away. Will have with sweet potato, spinach and zucchini.

Short chick - protein is #1. Vitamins / minerals through multivitamins, dairy etc. Fibre with Benefibre. Using Myfitnesspal app., I find most days I do pretty well to meet my requirements.

Cheers,

3 mouthfuls garlic mustard chicken with tbsp homemade coleslaw in roast garlic mayo.

3 Jelly Belly beans for supper - great sweet / flavour hit !

I had approx half a cup of eggplant lasagne that I made for dinner.

Very yummy.

Tonight I had 4 homemade chicken nuggets. verry yummy although I was naughty and deep fried them instead of cooking them in the oven.

Tonight I had 2 Dim Sims cooked on the BBQ. 2 small pieces of fresh pineapple and 8 cherries.

I am about 4 1/2 months out. Tonight we had Beef Stragonaff and I had about 1/2 a cup of beef with plenty of sauce but no pasta. My 2 year old grandaughter eats more than me now. lol

Nearly 5 months out.. Tonight we are having a BBQ.. Will have a chicken kebab skewer, and a tiny bit of potato bake.

About 9 months out.

I am having a small piece of homemade chicken parma (about 3 mouthfuls) with a very small amount of vegies.

Had a toasted sandwich for lunch, eat nearly all of it bar some of the crust.

I am 13 weeks post op and last night I had a slice of mum's yummy chicken schnitzel and a spoonful of potato mash.

Tonight I'm going to have a small bowl of cauliflower soup - mmmmm..... maybe a little finger of toast with Nutlex also.

A little bit of baked white fish, with some lemon pepper for flavour, and some ratatouille with cannellini beans. Quite a small portion, though I ate more fish than expected.

I'm 4 months post-op.

5 weeks out - yeeha!

Lean pork slow cooked in clear broth with home grown veggies - carrot, kohlrabi and meat, bok choy - will dish up 70g pork, 60g veggies, 5g mungbean noodles and broth to whet the gullet.

Edited: could only finish 3/4 of that meal - booufft... am stuffed!

I tried teriyaki chicken noodles from our take out. I've managed to eat a few chunks of chicken, and in fact, too few for my daily protein requirements, so it looks like an Opti might be in my future later tonight when I don't feel so full. The one or two noodles I've tried seem to get stuck, and I'm staying clear of the celery and other vegetables.

Teriyaki chicken noodles might be soft (my current food phase), but I think mid week 4 post op might be a bit early for this type of food.

4 small home made felafel balls with lettuce, tomato, cucumber, red onion, spring onion, mint, parsley, hummous, tzatziki with extra garlic, and half a wholemeal pita bread.

Not sleeved yet.

Cat.

Garlic and herb lamb shank (slow cooker recipe) - prepared with zucchini, carrots and sweet potato which breaks down through the sauce -yummy, perfect for thisa chilly Tassie night.

Nearly 8 weeks out.... Curried kumera and chicken soup (1/3 cup), and one marinated lamb riblet - 3 forks of meat. Delicious !

7 months out...
One egg omelette with a slice of extra-light cheese, coriander & mushrooms.
Side salad with capsicum, Swiss chard, cherry tomatoes, olives and sesame dressing.

I am 8 and a bit weeks out.
Last night we had a roast. I had a small piece of roast chicken and about a tablespoon each of gravy, carrot, cauliflower cheese, cabbage and roast pumpkin. It was lush!

Fettuccine & meatballs last night...
Prob 2 or 3 fork fulls of pasta & sauce, and about 4 mini meatballs.
