June 2022 surgery buddies
Mrskellygreen replied to Jessica1024's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
1 week until my liquid diet starts 😁 I am so excited! Even for that! Anyway what brands are you guys using as far as protein shake? Other stuff? I bought the Equate High Performance protein ready to drink shakes in chocolate, vanilla, latte, and caramel. I also bought the Two Good yogurt in assorted flavors. Sugar free pudding cups, and all the varieties of sugar free jello cups. On my list of need to buys is; broth and flavor packets for water. On a side note, I found about 4 kinds of Jordan's Skinny Syrups at Bealls Outlet store for $3.99 a bottle, just in case yall have that store in your area and are interested. I hear the syrups are good for flavoring shakes and etc. -
June surgeries? Tell me your preparations

Just thought about it, You also may want to save a few for yourself for salad dressing if you plan to eat salads out. I have found that the dressings in restaurants are mostly high calorie so I bring my own with me when I can. One serving or Two tablespoons is one ounce which is about the size of the little paper cups they give you for ketsup some places that have the dispensers out for you to use. I admit I use two ounces but it’s yogurt dressing so it’s still only 100 calories. I just ordered the one ounce cups and didn’t realize how tiny they are until I got them. Goes to show I have been underestimating calories for my salad dressing for a long time. -
I’m sorry it has been rescheduled. I guess that’s another reason to go to Mexico. I am an RN and work for a major hospital group…in home health. If I worked for the hospital, they would cover 100%. Since I do home health….they have no bariatric rider so I have to pay cash. I never thought that I would get this far with it. I realize I’ve been on my high protein low carb diet just 24 hours, but not once did I stop and get a Pepsi or food. I took PB and celery, ate tuna and yogurt throughout the day. The hardest part will be spaghetti and potatoes. I love my pasta but that’s what has me at 254 pounds. We can all do this. Best of luck to you and keep me updated!

Forgot to mention, I cant seem to stomach the premier protein anymore too sweet. I can tolerate Fairlife but prefer the whey protein isolate zero creamy vanilla powder. That is alot better for me as far as getting past the sweetness. I do and have bought the ratio protein yogurt....those things pack a powerful 20-25g of protein. It is thicker tho so as long as you can tolerate that it should be good. I also buy the keto protein of the same brand not as much protein but still a decent amount. Cod, Tilapia and Mahi Mahi fish are good (no strong fishy taste) and dont forget you may hate fish before surgery but after you may like it. I eat mine (after cooking) with fresh mild pico de gallo. I actually eat more fish now than I did in the past and I have put the fish on a small handful of baby spinach.

Just not feeling it
Lynnlovesthebeach replied to lboston's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm 3 1/2 + yrs post gastric bypass and I don't have much interest in food. I don't care about cooking it or eating it most days. I live alone so boring stuff like salads or yogurt or soup work just fine for me. When I go out to restaurants I usually order so I have leftovers for another day. I'm so glad Whole Foods reopened their hot food bars. I go there and shop for a couple days at a time and then I don't have to cook. -
I bought some of this yogurt today. Thanks for the info.
-
I plan on start that tomorrow morning. I tried a shake again this morning and again it made me nauseous. So, I'm going to try the protein powder in my yogurt.
-
If you have any protein powders on hand, consider mixing them into Greek yogurt. Also, Sams Club sells the Protein2o waters, which have 15g protein per bottle (taste is roughly similar to a Vitamin Water Zero).
-
For me it has a very chemical after taste that is off-putting, but it's such a good source of protein in a small quantity that I am still using it, but as a smoothy base with a little Fairlife vanilla protein shake and plain greek yogurt. Since today I start soft foods, I am going to add a little banana. MUCH tastier this way!
-
I'm sad that you can't have pork. It's the meat that agrees with me best - pork tenderloin (not overcooked) is the best for my tummy post surgery. Fish hasn't been well tolerated as I would have expected. My suggestions: Greek yogurt (or other high protein yogurt) and bone broth. Those were crucial for me when I was in that stage of recovery.

There is a yogurt made by ratio that has 25g of protein 8g carb and 3 sugar and it tastes good Sent from my SM-A716U using BariatricPal mobile app

I like the unflavored Isopure protein powder that can be mixed to make Protein Jello or Pudding. I can’t take more than one shake a day. I do Greek Yogurt too. There’s one called Two Good that’s ok.
-
Skyr, a type of yogurt, this has been my go to protein food item and has been for the last 6 months being vegetarian and all. I don't consume protein powders or shakes and get most of my protein from Skyr and other vegetarian food groups.

OMG you are so lucky !! 😪 I am about 5 1/2 weeks and can't eat anything. I have been trying different foods chicken hurts, ground beef is ok, fruits hurt everything doesn't feel good. I basically just have yogurt and crackers plus I can only take tiny bites and then my stomach starts making these weird noises and it feels uncomfortable. I cant wait to have fast food lol or just eat like a normal person again -
Nonfat greek yogurt is on my phase 1 full liquids plan. I am looking forward to chicken with the sugar free bbq sauce!

Crabby Patty Salad! Or really, crabby patty puree' for one. This is 2 ounces of imitation crab (aka the hot dog of the ocean), flaked up really well, with a generous squirt of lemon juice, a few dashes of some Old Bay hot sauce, 2 teaspoons of non fat greek yogurt, and my favorite thing that I just discovered: Amazon's very own dill mustard. It's amazing. Mixed all together and eaten with a fork. Next time, I might put it in a salad ring to feel ~fancy~. -

I make my smoothies as I go. I learned using the Baritastic App some food choices to keep the calories and carbs down. I love sweet frozen cherries, they have less calories than using even a half of a banana. I use a little yogurt. I used silk dairy free but have to be careful of the calories. I use almond milk and plant base unflavored protein power. I add blueberries as well. It's never the same thing exactly just what I am in the mood for. I have to be careful not to make a big one like I use to. I even put avocado in it for the nutrition. You don't taste it. I went to frys and in the freezer section bought cherries they don't have seeds. I like the sweet cherries. Then I would get other berries and peaches. Tonight I had protein Diet oatmeal it was good and not to sweet. I added some unflavored protein and a table spoon of no added sugar apple sauce. The oatmeal was 15 protein and 7 carbs. It took a while to eat it but it was really good. -

Went to Flavortown on the puréed express with some puréed rotisserie chicken with some Greek yogurt and a smidge of honey mustard. I topped it with some mashed avocado. I split this into two portions and had it for lunch and dinner yesterday. -
I had some canned chicken (2 Oz) with a little sugar free bbq sauce and it took me straight to Flavortown. My surgery was last Monday. If anyone starts on puréed foods, go small and creamy at first. Nonfat yogurt, hummus, refried beans are good starters.

I'm not allowed any oatmeal, nothing with chunks. Fudgesicles, popsicles, cream soups, greek plain yogurt, protein shakes, crystal light, kefir are pretty much it. Enjoy the oatmeal for me please :)~ and congrats on the 11 lbs!! -

That's funny you said that because I was thinking when I get to pureed I wonder if I could handle a few buts of pureed steak. Steak is something I don't normally crave. I normally don't have red meat but every couple of months. I eat chicken,turkey, fish and pork. I am learning to eat slower. I have always been a fast eater. I found eating slowly I can enjoy my food like I did when I ate a large volume. I was eating some yogurt and I took tiny bits resting in between. It was delicious. Learning to have a different relationship with food has been an emotional journey. I have never been one to enjoy cooking. I enjoying making my own creative smoothies. I put some avocado in my smoothie for the nutrition value and sweet cherries because I love them added my protein and some fiber, almond milk and non daily yogurt. I really found it tasted like a treat. Today I will make a different one with peaches and who knows what else. Trying to develop a relationship with food that engages healthy benefits. Thinking I am eating for my health gives it a different dynamic than to fill my comfort needs or just to fill up. Though I think treating ourselves occasionally maje it less likely we will cheat as much. Oh...I have sugarfree chocolate pudding, hmmmmm what can I do with that in a smoothie. -
Sugar free ice cream?
fourmonthspreop replied to cat.jackson89's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
I recently tried halo top. It was yummy! I usually try to have a healthier option though for a sweet meal like a low sugar protein yogurt and no sugar added dark chocolate chips. I suppose halo top has less calories than that so if you just want a couple spoonfuls of something sweet without the caloric load, halo top is decent. Just make sure it's part of your dieticians guidelines. Sent from my SM-G975U using BariatricPal mobile app -
3+ month post op and eating in the morning
fourmonthspreop posted a topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
Hey! I was curious if anyone is experiencing this or has experienced this in the past. I'm a little over 3 months post op and as I transition more into regular eating, I find that I CANNOT eat in the mornings to early afternoon. Like my body can't physically handle food until around 2pm. If I eat something before then it gets "stuck" or I get the slimeee and need to puke. Doesn't matter what it is, I try eggs, protein yogurt, beans, cheese, veggies, fruit, all of it gets stuck and I get nauseous for an hour or so. This has been a recent development...maybe the past month this has started. It's not a stricture because past 2 I have no issues regardless of what the food is and don't feel my restriction at night but I do get nauseous if I overdo it. So far I just drink a protein shake in the morning or just a coffee or water and then two meals past 2pm to get my calories and protein in. Idk it's so weird. Wondering why the restriction is so extreme in the morning. Sent from my SM-G975U using BariatricPal mobile app
