Congrats to those having surgery tomorrow. Praying for you all. I'm one week away and my nerves are already stretched thin. But I know this is the path I need to follow. And hey, I've lost 8 1/2 lbs already on my liver shrink diet. Mine isn't all liquids. But still rough! lol@FluffyChix Happy Halloween!

I am really shaking today, my nerves. I know this is the right decision. Just scared of the pain afterwards. I hope it's controlled.

sunshinetinks reacted to James Marusek in Low Carb
After RNY gastric bypass surgery, the part of your stomach that process fat and sugars has been cut away. Therefore consuming this type of food can lead to dumping syndrome. But after around a year post-op, your intestines figure out something is wrong and step up to the plate and begin to process this type of food.
The three most important elements after RNY gastric bypass surgery are to meet your daily Protein, Fluid and Vitamin requirements. Food is secondary because your body is converting your stored fat into the energy that drives your body. Thus you lose weight.
Weight loss is achieved after surgery through meal volume control. You begin at 2 ounces (1/4 cup) per meal and gradually over the next year and a half increase the volume to 1 cup per meal. With this minuscule amount of food, it is next to impossible to meet your protein daily requirements by food alone, so therefore you need to rely on supplements such as Protein Shakes.
There are two phases to weight loss surgery, the weight loss phase and the maintenance phase. The goals of each phase and the approach used to achieve those goals are different. The low carb approach may be applicable during the maintenance phase but if you want to lose the weight stick to the program requirements given by your surgeon. Weight loss is achieved by meal volume control during the weight loss phase.
