    It has been one week....

    I'm 8 days out and I feel great. I still have some pain at the port site but it isn't too bad. I was hungry the last few days but now I know it was PMS. TOM hit last night and today I've had no hunger. I can barely eat. I actually know I have a band now and this is without a fill. I had some yogurt for Breakfast and it took like an hour to eat it. For lunch I had a few bites of refried Beans. I am having some chicken broth now. I had been eating every few hours the last few days and I have to admit I am so happy the hunger is gone. It actually makes TOM worth it. I've only had 16 oz of H2O and I know I've got to get more in so I will work on that for the rest of the day. Debbie, I'm so sorry you are having a rough time. I promise it will get better. Take your pain meds, they will help.
  2. My doctors advised me not to follow the stories on people who don't like their bands because it discourages you. And because we don't know the entire story regarding why they had issues with their band. I met one woman and she kept complaining how she never lost any weight and then when I asked her why, she said oh she couldn't get anything down except ice cream. I asked her why she didn't try yogurt, or cottage cheese, or jello, or other alternatives, and she just ignored me. So you don't know the real reason, and most ppl think that the weight is going to fall right off that they don't have to do anything. It's not true. No one should discourage you, you do this for yourself!

    I'm bad at liquids.

    Try the following, but be warned that for the first two months lots of stuff you'll like later will still taste like a$$. Chike (from Chike Nutrition) whey Gourmet chocolate and PB Protein Hot Chocolate from Nashua Nutrition or Healthwise or HealthSmart Max Protein (some GNCs carry it, but not mine) FAGE Total 0% Fat greek yogurt (needs sweetener) Syntrax nectar (various fruit flavors)

    I'm bad at liquids.

    I bought some greek yogurt - bearded opened it one day, took a bite and threw it away - said it was the nastiest stuff he'd ever tasted (it was blueberry flavor I believe) -- so I still have never tasted it! It wasn't FAGE Greek yogurt, but it was greek yogurt - does it make a difference??

    I'm bad at liquids.

    First, don't get the ones with fruit in them. They are full of SUGAR. Second, natural, unsweetened greek yogurt tastes a lot like sour cream. So most people don't like it plain. I add artificial sweetener to them and sometimes my own fruit (which is not full of sugar like the stuff they add in the factory). What I like about it is that it's very rich and creamy compared to something like Yoplait lite. If it tastes bad after you add the sweetener, just add more. :confused:

    Cymbalta

    My doc told me to open the capsule and mix it with yogurt or pudding to take it.

    Cymbalta

    I took my capsules with yogurt, cottage cheese or some other food to help lubricate it enough to go through. Most of the time, this was never a problem. I did become overfilled once, to the point I had to open capsules to take them. Someone else has mentioned allowing capsules to dissolve a bit in water, before trying to take them.
  8. What did you eat (sic) for 3 weeks of liquid diet post-op? :blink:I am surviving on pudding with protein powder, cream of chicken soup, popiscles and non-fat yogurt smoothies. Had mashed potatoes today, felt like a real treat!

    Need healthy chili recipe

    Sautee 1 cup chopped onion in 1-2 T oil. Let them soften. Add finely diced carrots and celery if you like (I don't) and cook until softened. Sometimes I'll add sliced mushrooms here. Add 3 or more minced cloves garlic and cook 30 second to one minute Add 1lb ground turkey (or chicken or beef), stirring until no longer pink Add 2-3 T chili seasoning (I like Penzey's Chili 9000) and 1tsp or more cumin, plus 1-2 T unsweetened cocoa powder, and 1 tsp cinnamon and stir to coat. 1 T of brown sugar is a nice addition but not necessary Add 1 28 oz can of crushed or diced tomatoes Add 1 1/2 to 2 cups of broth Add 1 15 oz can of beans, rinsed (kidney or black beans are both great) I like to add about a cup of frozen corn and a bag of cauliflower rice right from the freezer at this stage, but you can add a lot of different frozen veggies. I love the sweetness of the corn, and the texture. Bring to a boil then reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, adjusting seasonings and cook for at least 30 minutes, but it gets better after an hour or so. Serve with plain Greek yogurt and shredded cheese (and onions if you like).

    May 28-31st Sleeve Week!

    Well, after being cut on the 28th, I'm home now! I was discharged yesterday and I feel pretty good. Incisions still suck, but I'm able to get in all my liquids and I can do purees. I'm getting way sick of Protein drinks though; some other people mentioned being fed up with sweet stuff, and I hear that! All I want is something savory. My last day in the hospital they gave me mashed potatoes and it was truly awesome. Of course, that's not the sort of thing I'll be making for myself at home, but it was nice! And @@hrhlaurie, you're not the only one who didn't get a leak test. My surgeon said he does the one while before they stitch you up, but doesn't do a swallow test because of the two leaks he's ever seen, one happened too soon to be caught by the test and the other happened too late, so he just doesn't see the point. Fair enough I guess. I mean, I wouldn't have minded doing one, but I trust his judgement, and since I'm feeling so good (relatively speaking), I think I'll know if something is wrong. I also had my first BM today (yay for bathroom talk!). It was teeny tiny, which doesn't surprise me, since I've eaten probably less than 1/4 cup of actual food since Tuesday. But today all I want is something savory and not made from instant powders like at the hospital! So, I'm gonna make some black bean Soup and puree it, then mix in some pumpkin seed protein, and instead of sour cream I'll do a dollop of quark (something common here in Germany that is sort of like Greek Yogurt, and tend to be eaten on potatoes; also very high in protein and low in fat). My surgeon said for now I can eat about three tablespoons at once, so I'll just freeze the rest in ice cube trays, and I should be set for food for a while, even if I half the recipe. I'm gonna save a bundle on food!
  11. @ eclecticavatar...Thank you for the compliment. But I don't really feel I'm crushing it. I get discouraged because some are losing way faster than me but my inches are flying off. I just try to get in 60 G Protein daily n my Water as well as Greek yogurt, re fried Beans , asparagus, grilled chicken. I can't eat a lot because my sleeve is picky but I do my best . I am now down 26 lbs and it's almost 6 weeks. If I had not had the surgery, there's no way the weight would be gone. Celebrate other victories beside just the scale. If you saw me in person , I don't look 191 so I take pride in the inches that are falling off. So I don't get bummed anymore when I see some people who have lost 45 lbs or some huge number that had surgery around the same date as myself.... why, because I tell myself I look good and some people lose it and you can't see it but mine is super noticeable so I take pride in that and so should you. 15 lbs gone is great ... I should have taken measurements but I didn't but I do advise you to measure yourself so that you can track inches lost. I measure mine by my clothes that I was busting out of and they are now falling off and the waist is huge on me. So that's how I know. Stay strong . We are gonna rock this thing. Just takes a lil time.

    Yoplait light

    Also try Yoplait 100 greek yogurts. They have less sugar and more protein.
  13. Protein intake does not count as water/hydration intake. You must take in atleast 60-70 grams of protein per day, and also a minimum of 64 oz of water. Broth, and sugar free Popsicles are considered hydration. Yogurt and protein shakes are absolutely not considered fluid intake. I know it's hard but you must sip both protein shake and water all day. Also FYI and fore anyone else who doesnt know the Isopure flavored liquid protein doesn't count as hydration. Isopure is liquidy but is 100% pure protein and has no water in it.
  14. Try Greek yogurt-no added sugar no fruit. You can also try jello or pudding with some protein powder mixed in, for example, chocolate protein powder in chocolate pudding.

    Advanced!

    Creamy low fat soups, yogurt, cottage cheese, low fat mashed potatoes etc. were my puree statge friends
  16. I'm 3 weeks out on Thursday, I've been mainly still on protein shakes and broth, but I've added some cottage cheese successfully. Tried a soft egg, no dice. Thinking about trying some yogurt.
  17. I never hit my goal weight either, and I've regained since then. Not sure how much: I'm afraid to look at the scale. I hope it's only 15, but I think it might be closer to 25 or 30. I've gotten addicted to processed carbs again, so I need to go off them, but it's tough. I was near perfect on my diet for a year, but never did any exercise. I think that really prevented me from reaching my goal. I'm feeting very motivated to exercise now; in fact, I'm going tomorrow to get a gym membership. (I do much better at exercise with a gym membership than working out at home.) I'd like to do keto because it's so effective, but since the surgery, my body really does not like it when I eat much fat. Also, there aren't a lot of protein sources I like, so I'm thinking about looking into a more plant based diet. I like the idea of fruits, vegetables, beans, string cheese, Greek yogurt, eggs, and some meat here and there. I should go back to protein shakes, but I drank so many for so long that I'm really tired of them. I think I'll start the Pound of Cure diet and see where it takes me. Anyway, good luck to you! It's tough when it seems that everyone else has been so successful, but tomorrow is another chance at success.
  18. I would review your doctor's instructions. Yes I know everybody says that. The reason why I want to stress that is that every doctor is different in what they consider mushies. My first week of mushies was only yogurt, cottage cheese ricotta. That's a far cry from anything that you can put in the blender. Remember just because it mushed in a blender doesn't mean it's the right weight. And when you eat something it's going to go into the small stomach and pull on the stitches there from the band until it passes through into the big stomach.

    May Sleevers

    I still use 1 Protein shake a day, but I eat egg whites, tilipia, chicken, greek yogurt, etc. I walk but I'm not really pushing myself yet. I need to up the intensity some but I'm enjoying it the way it is now.

    Trouble sleeping

    When I am losing weight, I have to go to the bathroom all the time. Especially at night -- I was up every hour! Could that be an issue? I also found that if I had some Protein before I went to bed I slept better. Dairy also helps you sleep (that's the reason for warm milk before bed). So I have a 4 oz cup of Greek yogurt before I go to bed. It gives me dairy, protein and is not hard to digest so my tummy is not working all night, like it would be if I ate something like carbs. I am 5 months post op (tomorrow as a matter of fact) and I now sleep like a dead person because of the copious amounts of exercise. But I still have my Greek yogurt at night. It's my nightly treat.

    What you eat on an average day?

    Hi i am almost 6 months out now. I eat i guess pretty much normal foods. like i did before, just not the same amounts. i pretty well now just eat off a bread and butter plate, and i find most times that satisfys me. For Breakfast i eat things like rolled oats, or poached egg on toast. or it could be friut and yogurt, what ever i feel like. lunch is usually a salad of some discription, and at the moment i am really into ones made with this really nice and easy low fat dressing, It is basically. 1/4 c white vinegar 1/4 cup of equall sugar ( not packed tight) or splenda a few drops of sesame seed oil, no more than 1 tsp total 1/4 c Water 2 tbs soy sauce. pinch of salt and that is it. put it into a shaker, and shake it very well. I also add some small diced fresh chilli, and i love a bit of bite, I tend to chop the vegies very small into it, as though making a salsa. some of the things i add are as follows, just to give you some ideas. 2x fresh truss tomatoes 1/2 avacardo 1/4 spanish onion finely diced 1/2 cobb of fresh corn I shave them off the cobb with a sharp knife. bunch of asian salad greens, or lettuce what ever you like, also chopped good handful of fresh coriander leaves, chopped. 1/4 red capsicum 1/4 green capsicum or yellow what every i have on hand 3-4 button mushrooms 1/2 lebanese cucumber diced small i also add a good handfull of mixed sunflower and sesame seeds. just before adding the dressing. I find this goes really well with grilled fish or chicken. or some times i will have it just by itself with some cut up egg or shaved ham for the Protein. I hope you guys enjoy. also i make it up and there is always some left over for the next day. it tastes just as good as left overs. cheers.

    Yoplait light

    I am 7 days post op. I have been enjoying yogurt since day three. I have had no problem with it at all. It is actually very enjoyable.

    eating constantly!

    Am 2 months out -6/24- and I eat evry 2.5/3 hours or I find myself a starvin marvin Breakfast at 830/900 (3 ounces oatmeal or Special K or 4 ounces yogurt) Snack 11 (usually cheese or deli meat or a piece of fruit) lunch 1-130 (today was a really whopping meatball couldn't finish it) Snack 3:30-400 (roasted chick peas and 1 ounce beef jerky) dinner never beyond 7 ( hanger steak today. Will see how that goes in a few minutes) If I go beyond 7 I get really bad acid.
  25. My NUT told me that Protein shakes, and yogurt for that matter, can be included in towards Fluid intake. I was not told to wait after drinking shakes to drink Water.
