Sure! But you don't need something fancy just clean up your diet I mini reset every month (9 months post op) to make sure I don't go too far off plan. I just eat basics of my plan again. Return to basics, single ingredient foods. COOK EVERYTHING.TRACK EVERYTHING. DRINK WATER Some examples Breakfast: Eggs/yogurt/protein shakes/turkey sausage 30 mins or more later drink 24 oz of water Snack: Strawberries 30 mins or more later drink 24 oz of water Lunch: Grilled chicken over salad/turkey/beef burger wrapped in lettuce/tuna salad with celery sticks 30 mins or more later drink 24 oz of water Snack: Protein bar/shake 30 mins or more later drink 24 oz of water Dinner: Curried Lamb over cauliflower/ beef and broccoli /garlic chicken and cabbage 30 mins or more later drink 24 oz of water You got this!- 1 reply

I was never a big milk drinker before my bypass. I am day 12 today post op and doing liquid diet. Drinking skimmed milk with protein powered or just plain. Had no problems until yesterday when I got tummy pains and an upset tummy, tried again today, soup no problem, yogurt no problem but just drank my milk and pain again Is there an alternative that we are allowed that is still high in protein? Im in the UK so food items might be different. Would love your views on this please

We all have 'a lot going on', every single one of us has turned to food to sooth or 'fix' something. But it fixes NOTHING, NADA, ZILCH!!! You are using it as a crutch or excuse. And please - giving food away excuse, you already spent the money, it's gone, if you can't afford to buy them, don't buy them. There is no shortage of food, you do not need these. 3oz turkey 24gr protein 146 calories 1 egg 6gr pr 78 cals 1/2 c cottage cheese 13 gr pr 82 cals 1/2 tuna 20gr pr 90 cals 6oz greek yogurt 17gr pr 100 cals -
Beginning of second week post op what is everyone eating ?!?!
AEdoesRnY replied to Elizabeeth's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Week two for me is basically clear liquids + strained, diluted soup and two protein shakes. Still no yogurt or anything like that. No pureed foods until 8/20! -
Folks. I know I come here and post every couple of days about my cravings, but I don't know what else to do. I feel like I'm going to buy a slice of pizza, take a bite and toss the rest when I'm out walking my dog. I'm legit hungry all the time and there's no way I'm going to successfully resist temptation by just gritting my teeth. It's been constant. No relief from hunger at all. Today's day 12. Also, when i eat cottage cheese or yogurt or some other tide me over fat free soft treat, my weight loss either stalls or goes up the next day. Called my nutritionist about it last Friday, she told me to drink one fewer protein shake a day so i show good numbers at my first weigh in. Frigging losing it.

Beginning of second week post op what is everyone eating ?!?!
Krizivester replied to Elizabeeth's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Week 2 for me was chunky soups, jello, pudding, yogurt, mashed potatoes, cheeses, V8, and protein waters. -
Hi, oh dear, your situation sounds challenging. I’m 3 weeks out also, to be exact. 16 days, and healing ok, inside and out. Very little nausea, onto soft mushy food.. Did you have a upper GI the day after surgery? The Dr. then checks for any leakage and/ or problems after surgery and if so, keeps you in the hospital for further observation/ correction. It’s pretty standard procedure..Yes, your abdomen and stomach will be swollen a bit after surgery, normal, but your situation sounds unique. In comparison, I take my chewable bariatric vitamins daily, Isopure Protein Drink and Premiere Protein Drink, 1 Greek yogurt, smushed banana or avocado when the mood strikes,..Refried beans have been ok, not spicy..sugar free jello is nice. Campbell’s chicken noodle soup. (more soup than noodle) and constant hydration.. your getting hydrated and nutrition through your IV. which is great. The calories add up quick so, I would keep at at about 1,000 in the future, once your situation stabilizes..Maybe your body is going through a shock or serious readjustment. Maybe your very sensitive to surgery.. it’s possible your liver or gall bladder is acting up.. if your dialing back any medication after surgery, that could be giving you headaches. Protein is the key. For future reference, Unjury medical quality protein powder can be added to anything to bump up the protein levels.. but, I did meet a gal last week who couldn’t have the surgery because she couldn’t tolerate any protein due to kidney or liver problems (I can’t remember which,, geez). I’m so sorry..your experiencing this. I would ask some hard questions if this doesn’t start to ease up in another week.. Hopefully it will, and this event will be a distant memory.. Hang in there...Good Luck!!

Laughing cow cheese, cottage cheese, triple zero yogurt, and eggs. I also supplement with protein shakes. I gag at the thought of having any more broth.

I had very good luck with purée stage. I did devilled egg, chicken salad with low fat mayo or Greek yogurt, scrambled eggs with a bit of ricotta cheese mixed in, kept them nice and smooth. Soda crackers and Melba toast also no problem. But getting a bit cocky I was cutting up a Costco rotisserie chicken for hubby and was taking small bits and chewing well when all of a sudden It got stuck! It was very uncomfortable for about 15 minutes and kept wanting to come up but it finally passed 😩

Summer 2018 Surgery Buddies: POST-OP Discussion
J San replied to Ylime's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
The only soup I had was tortilla soup and I blended it. I only took what liquid I would eat a small amount of the solid ingredients and I added water. If it was watered down too much I would add onion and garlic powder for xtra flavor. Pretty watery end result, no thicker than the watery yogurt I was eating/drinking. Double check with your NUT to be sure though. I didn't ask but I had no issues either. -
Body Fortress at WalMart. Whey protein 30g of protein, 8g of carbs and very affordable. $17.00 for 2lb tub. Isolate protein 30g of protein, 2g of carbs, $19.00 for 2lb tub. I mixed it with almond milk for pre op diet and now I mix with water post op. I've also added to pudding mix and yogurt. Tastes really good. So far have tried Vanilla and PB and Chocolate. Yet to try Strawberry, Chocolate and Cookies & Cream.

Summer 2018 Surgery Buddies: POST-OP Discussion
J San replied to Ylime's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
When I was on phase 2 full liquids I was allowed soups. My wife picked up a tortilla soup that was soooo good. I didn't have to strain it just had to blend so I would add a scoop of unflavored protein powder blend it and go to town. It lasted me 4 days and was my favorite meal of the day. I was also allowed yogurt so I would take a table spoon of greek yogurt and blend it with Protein2O and sometimes a scoop of vanilla protein powder. Really good, the tart from the yogurt was knocked down a bit from the sweet of the protein water and the sweet of the protein water was knocked down a bit from the tart of the yogurt. -

AEdoesRnY replied to Ylime's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I’m excited bc my surgeon is adding strained Soup to what I’m allowed to eat today (only like 3-4 tsp at a time). BUT I’m also officially not going to see any real food until 9/3. Puréed (including yogurt and cottage cheese and stuff like that) starts 8/20. Ughhhh. -
Going from Liquid to soft food today, a bit nervous :)

I survived breakfast! 1oz of Greek yogurt with a tiny dab of peach/blueberry compote I made. It's staying down I think -

Going on all inclusive vacation...need some tips!
shortmocha replied to Pink nova's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
I just came back from trip. Travelling is doable. I did fruit, yogurt, turkey bacon for breakfast. If you like eggs that's a great one. I noticed even in the airport shops there were protein shakes (more calories than I would normally have in 1 but for on the go it worked). At lunch and dinner I did salads with chicken, chili, steak and veggies. In the Caribbean you've got options like conch salad and other seafood dishes. I'm going on a cruise to the Caribbean in November. I'll be 5 months out then. I'll be sticking to this plan. I still rely on protein shakes/water to get in all the protein I need. This weekend I threw a couple of waters and shakes into the suitcase to help me get through the weekend. I'm not a fan of the powders but on the 7 day cruise in November I'll probably pack some power and a shaker to keep the weight in the suitcase down. Have fun. You'll be fine. -
Going from Liquid to soft food today, a bit nervous :)
Orchids&Dragons replied to Plucky's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
Start with things that are quite smooth, Greek yogurt, unsweetened applesauce, peaches canned in their own juice, etc. Gradually build up on the texture scale. You'll do great! -
Going from Liquid to soft food today, a bit nervous :)
Plucky posted a topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
Today I'm allowed my first soft foods; eggs, cottage cheese, greek yogurt, cooked veggies, and fruit. I'm a bit nervous! Wish me luck with the next steps. Sadly I don't love eggs and hate cottage cheese but will make this work! -
Sweet Tooth
RapidFirePickle replied to Simpson062681's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I like to blend Muscle Milk chocolate protein powder and some added cocoa powder with Fage Zero greek yogurt, and then I add a little stevia or monkfruit to it if it's too sour. This works on my husband's sweet tooth (I had surgery but he's the one with the sweet tooth). I also ran across Smartcakes for when you are further out and can do all foods; they are 38 calories each, zero consumable carbs (fiber and sugar alcohols). They are low fat and have 4 grams protein. They come in lemon, tangerine, coconut, chocolate, and cinnamon roll. They are spongy and moist like you'd expect cake to be. It's a healthier alternative than going off the wagon (dietitian thought they were cool when I had her look at them today). Good luck; cravings sweets can't be fun. -

August surgery ppl
afakasiwife replied to ALEandVSG's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Badwolf523 hey hon, omg the gas pain was my main issue. Ad I think I am going to sleep on the couch because I am very uncomfortable in the bed. My husband helps me prop the pillows a certain way to help but I barely sleep comfortable. So I think we may be moving to the couch for a few days lol. When was your surgery day? Also, I hate taking the lquid Tylenol codeine, I feel so sleepy and dizzy when I take it , so I try to not to take it but my husband makes me becausje he knows the incisions are pretty sore. I actually had a breakdown and cried a few hours ago to my husband and I told him I just want a yogurt, I want a taste in my mouth besides water and Gatorade!! and for some reason I cant keep down my protein shakes. So yeah I freaked out for a moment and I'm better now. I feel like a child acting that way but this can be emotionally, mentally and physically draining to changed your entire life in the blink of an eye. BUt we got this lady lol. Tell me your stats, and when was your surgery, etc. How are you feel overall? -
Hey surgery buddy! I wasn’t prepared for this either....it’s much harder than I thought. I just keep telling myself that each day will get better. They sent me home fairly quickly and I spent the first 48 hours vomiting anything I tried to put in my mouth including water. Today is the first day where I’ve been able to have 1/3 of a yogurt cup and a few spoons of cream of chicken soup. Pretty sure I’m not going according to plan as far as protein and water but I see the doctor on Wednesday. Good luck!

For the first week, they want me to focus on 64 oz of fluids per day and working in one protein shake over the course of the day. After my meeting with surgeon tomorrow they should clear me for "full liquid" diet and I'll be having two protein shakes a day plus I'm allowed some soups (still no yogurt, cottage cheese, pudding, etc)

Yes he said 2 week I can start cottage cheese and yogurt’s but I’m still confused I see what other people are doing I just don’t know which way is the right way the wrong way
