Oopsie bread or cloud bread is a good choice. Its has Protein and very minimal on carbs...like .5
Forgot to say google either term and you'll find the recipe.

I am 10 months out and cannot eat 3 oz. of dense Protein. It is absolutely normal. I can however eat 6 oz.of yogurt or 4 oz. of cottage cheese.
I can eat a cup or more of salad.
It all depends on what you are eating.
Don't worry, the longer out you are, the more Protein you will tolerate. I still have to drink one Protein shake every day to get to my goal. This is because my nut wants to ensure I eat a high protein low carb diet that includes fruits and vegetables. 2 bites of protein for every one bite of good carbs.
That's my plan and it is working for me.
Good luck! You are doing great already.

Tough love here. So you are not following the plan post-op and you are having troubles. This isn't surprising. Why are you doing it? I have no idea. But unless you want to fail at this and potentially end up back in the hospital because of dehydration, you'll get back on track using your new tool correctly.

Hi! Congrats on your progress! My doctor and NUT both told me that dumping can vary from almost immediately to 3 or 4 hours. The other night I had some chopped up grilled chicken breast and just a small cube or two of potato mixed in kind of like a hash. I had 2 or 3 bites and was finished eating and felt fine. I sprang out of bed at 2:30 in the morning with what felt like gas pain...the same pain that I had 2 days post op. That "gas" turned in diarrhea. Well turns out it was a form of dumping. I felt bad the entire day. Of course my doctor said I was lucky because I didn't have the FULL effect of dumping syndrome. Needless to say, no more potato. Now for trying foods...you should eat them one at a time (one meal) to see if your body can tolerate it. Otherwise, if you get sick you wont know what made you sick. Once you are sure you can tolerate it then you would be safe to combine them. Good luck!

Honestly my binder caused so much more pain in the beginning that I couldn't use it. I asked my doctor about it and she said some it helps and some it doesn't. One of my friends couldn't live with out it.

I have never craved refried Beans until now! I still have a week of liquids left (only 1 week post-op) but I think refried Beans will be my first meal - even if for breakfast!

The refried Beans and cheese with taco sauce are my favorite!!

OMG I craved everything from shrimp to chicken with anything but a little tiny bit of Mayonnaise on it. It totally gets better I am almost 3 months out eating anything I want moderation. The only thing I found hard to do was to realize when I was hungry. Before surgery I was full when the entire bag of potato chips was emptied. Now I might have one potato chip and feel full. But it's the realization that you're full. It's a whole new world and a fantastic journey that you will end up loving once you can eat solid food. I regretted the surgery and thought I was going to die with the stuff that I had to eat and drink for three weeks post surgery. But there is light at the tunnel and the journey is amazing, I'm glad I did it and I think you will be too

Funny, the hospital brought me Decaf coffee for "breakfast" on day 2. I didn't drink it but have since I've been home. I am on day #6.

My wife has taken this first week off. What an amazing woman! I really needed her here.

Congrats! I'm on day #6 and the gas pains are gone and the pain from surgery is more manageable. Hang in there!!
