For those who plateau (like me), I just learned...
Drasan replied to voodoo's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
JDG - I'm just a newbie too but here's what I try to do. I'm in the soft food phase. In 3 days I go to the stabilization phase and I can't wait to eat salad!!! Yay! At each meal, I try to get 3 - 4 oz of Protein (greek yogurt, eggs, LF cheese, fish, meat) 1/4 c vege, 1/4 c fruit (sometimes replaced with starch). I've found it really helps to get the 20 oz of Water in between each meal. Occasionally I feel hungry between meals, so I have a small banana. My old habits of eating at night still haunt me sometimes, so I have sf/ff hot chocolate made with water or herbal tea, so far that's working. Like Kay, I sometimes supplement my protein with Isopure Protein Drink. This was recommended to me by my surgeon. btrieger - How you doing? Haven't seen you on the boards lately! I got the number of 60-80 grams of protein from the information that was given to me by the Director of Bariatric Surgery at the hospital where I had my surgery. I always want to learn more. If you have other information I'd really like to read about it. At support group we were told, this isn't an exact science. Everybody will have different needs and finds ways that work for them. -
Get unflavored protein powder and add to soup, yogurt or even water. I am pre-surgery and already hate protein shakes (pre-made).

I'm 10 days post op. band removal and sleeve. rough couple of days. 2 days in hospital. no vomiting but lots of heartburn/nausea. hard to tell if hunger pains or nausea. salty foods go down better loving tomato soup. on pureed diet. Breakfast is worst, as I luv my coffee. taking Prilosec 20 30 minutes before breakfast. didn't work today,lightheaded/nausea. greek yogurt goes down ok and dry chicken soup mix. I am very sick of the Protein drinks but know that is a guaranteed protein.

Hi all! I'm at day 17 post-op... I am able to have about 1/4 cup of broth, around 3 oz's of Jello,pudding or mashed potatoes at my meal time... I have a horrible time getting down my liquids or Protein shakes( maybe 32oz's a day). I also tried yogurt and cottage cheese only about 2-3oz's of those as there consitancy is a little thicker. I know I'm full when I feel it sitting in my chest! It doesn't feel very good and I have been walking daily! My 2 week post-op the other day I was down 17lbs so I was happy to know this must be working... Everyone is different and I know it is going to be a journey for us all but this forum is a great tool to have at our finger tips. Good luck to us all

I was sleeved on Thursday, so we're close. I haven't tried anything other than plain Water and water with Crystal Light (I did not like it - it make me more thirsty). I tried some broth, but that didn't go well. Jello about made me yack. I can get thru an 8 ounce thinned out shake in about 30-40 minutes. I get frustrated that I can't take in more. I'm allowed 2 T. of "slip and slide" food - applesauce, Greek yogurt, sugar free jello, sugar free pudding, cottage cheese, etc. I can get the applesauce down, but again, that takes about 30 minutes. I'm feeling much better today - still a few gas pains now and then.

I am about 11mos out from surgery. I know I can eat more but not when I eat protein first. I am about 30-50lb from goal and still lose 1-2lb weekly eating "normally". For a reference, I can now eat 75% of a Sonic Single w/ cheese but I find that when I do I unknowingly eat LESS calories daily (around 1000-1200). When I try to eat more sensible I eat around 1500-1800 calories daily. On those days I eat the "hospital-portioned" cereal for breakfast with 2% milk, lunch comprises of a chicken breast with whatever vegetable is in the cafe at work, dinner is random as it can be nothing or up to one chicken satay (for example). Interspersed throughout my day I drink water and Honest Tea and eat a Smuckers Uncrustable and maybe a light & fit yogurt. As a Nurse Aide I move around quite a bit on a twelve hour shift so getting to a meal isn't always easy or possible. In those instances I go with the cereal, yogurt and uncrustable at work and have a form of protein at home. Is there any way that I could get my doctor or anyone to measure my stomach capacity?

I NEED SOME ADVICE PLZ HELP!
Lander replied to 2dreamkrazii's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
There are plenty of other ways to get protein than throiugh shakes. My NUT stopped my shakes after the second week and insisted I get it through natural food, Eat cheese, cottage cheese, eggs, chicken, fish, tuna, greek yogurt. -
Just getting started
PianoMom replied to Lissa.Shrinks's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Hopefully my surgery will be mid to late January. I have started trying the protein powders to get an idea what they taste like and if they mix up well. Yogurt is one of my favorite snacks so I have switched to Greek yogurt. Just gradually making some changes now so it won't be so strange right after surgery. -
Hey has anyone been able to find sugar-free yogurt? The only ones I found our just Fat-free. And while were on the subject what about frozen fruit bars without added sugar, couldn't find any at Wal-Mart? Do they exist? I did find sugar free Italian Ice and sugar-free Popsicle. But that's not what I wanted. I thought there would be some fruit bars with Splenda or something. Thanks ~~~Stephanie

Emotional eating after surgery
royalsecret replied to sweetie022972's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
I'm also a stress eater and am very stressed right now due to my mom being really ill. I am about 10 weeks out and I've done really well sticking to my food plan, except for this last week. It's been pretty easy because my hunger is 80% gone. I ate a whole pint of frozen chocolate yogurt one day, and then couple days later I ate WAY too many miniature candies a co-worker keeps stocked at his desk for whoever needs chocolate. I know I will always have to fight my urge to eat when I'm stressed, but the thing that makes it a lot easier is I'm not also always fighting hunger pains as well, so I feel it's much easier to control. It's also a lot easier to get back on track! :-) -
I do plan my meals but I can only eat so much at a time, she wants three meals and a protein shake would be meal replacement. I was having my shake at 6 and yogurt at 9...

Your weight loss will flucuate. You lost alot right away so don't panic. I do have 5-6 small meals a day. If I have a protein shake I don't have yogurt too, that would be way too much food all at once. Split up your foods to have your 6 small meals and don't worry the weight will come off.

I am suppose to have 75-80g of Protein a day. Since I am on creamy liquids that's not a problem, Protein shakes w/milk. Protein powder in yogurt, etc. But..... starting Monday I am suppose to add some "real food". With a 1/2c stomach, how am I suppose to eat food and still get all the protein? The following Monday, all restrictions will be off, How do I get it all down, I'm not even hungry as it is??? Never dreamed I would be worried about not eating enough, what a new life, and I'm so excited!! lol PS I am down 14 pounds since I started the pre-op liquid diet to today (3 days post op). I am feeling really good except when my Corgi jumped on one of my incisions. Still having gas pain in my shoulders though, but I know that shouldn't last.

I have been thinking alot about this too lately...Am I eatting too much at one time?......I dont measure my food.. I dont know if thats a good thing or a bad thing....but I eat until I feel full and then I throw out or wrap up what ever is left over. Then again, thinking back to what I could eat pre banded days makes me sick~ I am typically not hungry...I stay full for hours...My restriction level is awesome....I get some things stuck, but my fault....I dont chew well, or I take HUGE bites of something. I work on that every day to make that better...that has ALWAYS been my downfall since getting this band...and I have done the toddler forks and stuff, but somehow....someway.....Old habits are hard to break I guess. Typically what I eat is Breakfast: Yogurt and cup of coffee w/Equal and FF Amaretto Cream Lunch: Sometimes a protein shake or left overs from dinner (meat and veggie) Dinner: Sesame Chicken with a veggie I drink all day long....water or other sugar free liquid or coffee I may snack on a second yogurt or some cheese and crackers or nuts or FF pudding.. Once in a very very very blue moon I may have some ice cream with my son I am going to try and log everything I eat for a week....just because now I am curious. I haven't been very sucessful at doing this before only because I get busy and forget to write things down....but I am really gonna try cause I have been thinking alot, probably too much, about the possiblity of streaching out my pouch~~ Parinoid delusions more than likely.....

Getting stuck with no success :-( was this really worth it?
luv2laugh replied to aminorharmony's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Is there any good Proteins that you do like that your nutritionist has recommended? Clean out your cabinets of the bad stuff. I know if it's in my house I will eat it. If you make it harder to find, you won't bother. If you are constantly getting stuck, tell your doc - that is not normal. Go back to mushy stage.. try yogurts, cottage cheese, hummus, Soups, etc. I know fries were not tolerable for me the first time I was banded. Good luck and hang in there! -

Hi, My surgery was Oct 3 and I too have been having nausea. My mother is freaking out and wants me to call the Lap Band Center, of course. I think maybe it's just normal for some people. I have been only taking in liquid as well. I tried some yogurt but it was a disaster. Does this feeling go away?

Can I have this?
VSG_Man_Vs_Food replied to Vsgneeded's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
There are clear protein drinks like premier protein and isopure. "Better than Bouillon" broth is very good, and you can have sf jello and popsicles. On full liquids, strained soups and greek yogurts are good. A great combo is enchilada soup and some mashed avocado mixed with sour cream! My wife is 3 weeks out so I've been following along, my surgery is in 10 days. HW: 330 lb SW: TBD 6/27/2017 CW: 302 lb GW: 180 lb VSG, Dr. Jawad, Orlando, FL -
My gallbladder has been attacking me...
Wheetsin replied to Wheetsin's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Thanks for the replies! Band surgery wasn't bad for me at all. I went home about 4 hours after the actual procedure, and 15 mins into recovery room I was asking to be discharged. No gas problems at all. My biggest discomfort was, aside from the actual port incision, that I was allergic to the adhesive they placed over my staples. I hear so many mixed reports on post-GB removal. I spoke with a woman last night who swore that even just yogurt send her running to the toilet within 10 minutes. BTW, came across this looking at more information: -
