Either my "stomach" was happy or sad. During happy days, I had low fiber diet that included buttered noodles, toast, crackers w/jelly, baked potatoes, and boiled chicken, carrots from homemade instant pot chicken soup. I could eat small portions of salmon and swordfish on good days, too. Canned green beans were my staple vegetable. Yogurt worked for me as well. On bad days, maybe after trying something new like coconut shrimp, I would stay on a clear chicken broth (from instant pot chicken recipe), pudding and cream of wheat. It was a soft food diet for one day and I would be ok the next day.

That boiled chicken (from instant pot soup) turned into chicken tacos, hot chicken sandwich, gravy and mashed potatoes! Later a good chicken salad. Now I'm trying beef!!

At 7 weeks are you able to each fresh spinach, cilantro, or black beans, bison or ground beef?
I tried Salmon at week 2 and that did not go well. At almost week 4 /cod, chicken, and turkey are working well.
My veggies I include the cooked carrots and frozen green beans.
How is your energy level at week 7?
I am to return back to week at week 7 and have concerns?
