Hi Lee Anne, I am just over 3 weeks post op and doing well. I am going back to work on the 15th, so I'll have to get that together too. Here are some thing I find helpful the 1st few weeks: oatmeal protien-filled soups(lentil is great!) crystal light protien supplements frozen fruit to mix with protien drinks lite yogurt acidophylis string cheese eggs thinly sliced deli ham decaf teas sugar free popsicles water water water tuna fish When I go back to work I plan to take a soft lunch bag with blue icepack...I tend to eat three meals a day plus two snacks. As I work evenings I plan to eat breakfast and a protien drink before work. In my bag I'll bring some string cheese, a yogurt,and either a ham and cheese or tuna sandwich, soup or maybe a weight watchers or lean cuisine frozen dinner. I'll see how it goes for me. Good luck with your surgery and recovery! ****Peace and Love***** in N.Y. BPD/DS part 1 (sleeve gastrectomy) 9/10/01 Dr. Michel Gagner Mt.
