    Protein levels low ????

    shellyd67 replied to shellyd67's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    Great idea !! That is why I love this site !! I'm having a "why didn't I think of that" moment ☺️I was online for hours trying to revamp my diet ...

    I would have your BP monitored daily to see if that could be an issue. A good friend of mine, had the sleeve & kept passing out from her BP being too low. I have been off my BP meds since 2 weeks post op and I monitor mine everyday. I hope you get some answers soon, that has to be scary & frustrating.

    Ounces of protein

    shellyd67 replied to ShannonSinTx's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    I'm 9 weeks post op and can manage 3oz of fish but only 1 1/2 of chicken.

    I always use a blender (ninja) I make two shakes at a time , and let them settle in the fridge for an hour or two to eliminate some of the foam. You will get much better results with a blender of some sort. ????

    Vitamin Problems

    I am in no way able to "eat" all my required protein per day so I have to do 2 protein shakes. I try and space meals and drinks out, but there just isn't enough hours in the day. I'm required 80 gms per day and I always meet that and usually have 90-100 gms. I have read that a lot of people do at least one shake, per day for 6 months or more ... Just curious on how others handle this ...

    PATCHMD.com will explain it all. I also recommend doing your own research. For me, they are super convenient and one less thing I have to worry about.

    Pre-op diet

    shellyd67 replied to Ilovecats1985's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    I lost 13 lbs pre-op. I did shakes & broth only and didn't cheat once. I was too scared of my liver not shrinking enough ????

    I use all Unjury products and really like them. Once you get used to the protein smell, it's easier ...

    I loved nothing more than my morning cup of coffee pre-op. I lost the taste completely for coffee post-op. Go figure ? ☕️☕️ I drink decaf hot tea with Splenda and a splash 1% milk.

    I like her and think she has a fabulous personality. I do think she is kidding herself though. Life is not fabulous at almost 400 lbs. The health risks and physical limitations are just overwhelming at her size. I wish her all the best ????
  17. shellyd67
    I use PATCHMD as well. Have you had labs done since you started using them ? I have labs next Friday and I'm hoping they are doing their job ????

    ITS OFFICIAL!

    shellyd67 replied to jessicamanus23's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    That's awesome !! The liquid diet goes so fast !! It is so well worth it ????
  19. shellyd67
    Yes, I can see the calories adding up with fancy shakes lol Mine are 192 calories each because I use 1% milk to mix them, so 1/2 of my daily calories are coming from shakes at this point. It's all I can do ... I get the other 300-400 calories with fish/seafood of some sort and maybe some cheese & yogurt ...

    Hospital stay

    shellyd67 replied to Ilovecats1985's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    I stayed 2 days. I felt great but my heart rate was a little elevated, so they suggested another night.
  21. shellyd67
    I usually eat fish or seafood everyday. It is much easier than poultry. I still can't meet my goal ... In due time I guess ????
  22. shellyd67
    Ok, that makes me feel better !! Thanks ????

    Peanut butter powder?

    shellyd67 replied to mouse1972rb's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    I use it in my shakes and it's very good. My NUT approved it also.

    Question

    shellyd67 replied to byebyefat's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    how long has it been since your surgery and is it getting clearer and did your dermatologist prescribe you something?I am 6 weeks post op. I had a bad rash that I did get a prescription for but I didn't get anything for the breakouts. I am just treating them OTC. It stinks !!
