New Here - Having Trouble with getting meals in.

[tnw1965]

Good Morning, I've had Gastric Bypass Surgery (3/26). Having trouble getting meals in because I'm not hungry and then I don't know what to eat. I need help with meal planing or what to have in the house if I don't cook. Thank you for all your help.

Hello tny- Are you cleared for regular food? If so, keep high protein shakes, yogurt, fish and turkey meat on hand as a staple. Did your doctor or dietician give you a food list? I don't cook and I am satisfied with very little since I still like the shakes. For lunch today I had 1/2 cup of cottage cheese with a microwaved meatball and a dab of tomato sauce on top. ( I know, sounds weird.)
Eggs are awesome to keep handy, as well as canned chicken. A little low fat mayonaise and you can have a deviled egg or chicken salad. There is a website called Baritastic that has recipes that might inspire some food choices.
Good Luck!
