You can ask her to take protein bars / granola bars / also let her consume a mid meal as protein shake . She can take prunes and mushrooms too.Regards,miloniSent on my BlackBerry® from VodafoneFrom: "jlcooke23" <jlcooke23@...>Sender: Date: Tue, 23 Nov 2010 13:21:37 -0000< >Reply Subject: meat, fish,egg aversion after gastric bypass hi all,i have a post-op gastric bypass pt w/ a very strong aversion to most all meats, fish and eggs, so much so that she is making her husband cook the turkey outside to avoid having to smell it. this was a pre-existing aversion. she does eat ground beef and some pork and she is willing to try meat substitute products (ex. veggie crumbles, veggie burgers, veggie sausage, etc). i've already discussed the use of protein powder mixed w/ her foods/beverages and have educated her on all of the non-meat protein sources. have also searched my bariatric cookbooks for several tofu-based recipes. any creative ideas or help is greatly appreciated!jenna cooke, rdst. mary's hospital
