Back in February I had some major stomach surgery and now have a 200ml stomach pouch. That means I can no longer eat more than about 150 grams or drink more than 150ml at a sitting.
I have reduced my diet to dried fruit, biscuits, cheese, milk, and oats. Most other food things I no longer have any taste or desire for. It does make cooking very easy - I don't bother beyond boiling water - and I am reducing my kit accordingly. I now cycle more than walk and use cafes for lattes and carry the rest myself, grazing every hour to hour and a half.
Weaned on Rat Packs in the '60's I can now only eat the fruit biscuit, brown biscuits, cheese spread and various oatmeal blocks so I'd like to swap some main meals for those items if anybody is interested.
I have 2 vegetable tikka maslas, 2 potato and beans, 3 non meat sausage and beans, 4 treacle puddings and two rice puddings (I could eat the rice puds but the quantity is too much and they ain't practical to reseal).
From US MRE's I have 1 Cheese Tortellini in Tomato Sauce, 1 Veggie Burger in Barbecue sauce and 1 Vegetable Manicotti. Each of the MRE packs comes with its heating pouch.
I can eat just about any of the MRE small packets of Pound Cake, Brownies, etc
Anybody interested in some swaps for those smaller Rat Pack and MRE items that I can still manage, please?
