Yogurt recommendations please
pammieanne replied to plakbusta's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
This is also what my NUT said was best for protein/sugar, etc for after surgery. I haven't tried it yet because I'm not a huge fan of yogurt, but I plan on getting some for my pureed phase. Adding a little Protein shake to thin it out sounds like a good idea! -
It's pain, then foam then thick food vomit, that hurts so much until is out. Sometimes it's so hard that I feel like I'm chocking. The dumping I have too with sugar, get very dizzy. Shaky, I have to sit for awhile. I eat mainly beans, nuts, salads, tofu, yogurt, cottage cheese, banana, kiwi, trying meats and fish after 1 yr post op and it's OK for now.

Why can I eat more of one food than another?
songsmith posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I guess it doesn't matter, but I am curious. I'm 3 wks out and on soft foods per my surgeon. The amount I can eat varies not only from day to day but from food type to food type. Yesterday I could barely get down 1/2 cup of Greek yogurt in one sitting. Today I ate a 2 egg omelette (w/a touch of cheese). There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason. Some days I can eat more of a food than I did previously and vice-versa. Not worried, just find it odd and wondered if those with more experience with their sleeves could shed some light. -
Had the sam problem for first 4 months post op. Now i have a yogurt or Quest protein bar everyday and this keeps me regular. I don't eat fruits and rarely eat vegetables. Mostly i eat chicken.

Not even 6 weeks post op-Gaining weight?
songsmith replied to ssflbelle's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I think you should try to get most of your Protein from actual food, but sometimes that's problematic when you can't eat enough at one time to make a significant dent. That said, not all shakes are full of sugar, carbs and calories. I don't buy premixed (usually more expensive) but I know you can find 0 carb or low carb protein powders. Some, if flavored, may have a few carbs, but not many. I use one of the flavored Syntrax powders, which is at 100 calories and (from memory) maybe 7g carbs and 23g protein. The unflavored ones have 0 carbs. Do you like yogurt? The plain, unflavored Fage Greek yogurt is made with only milk and yeast cultures--no additives--and has 23g protein (yes, as much as my protein powder!) and 9g carbs (because of the natural lactose in dairy). That's a ton of protein from a "real" food. Naturally, flavored versions have different counts. It is the highest protein Greek yogurt I've found. You can flavor it with fruit, sweeteners (if wanted) yourself and know you aren't adding in weird chemicals. -
Purée Diet - I'm so lost
kalea_04 replied to kalea_04's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I just started my purée stage 2 days ago and doing great!! Thanks for all the ideas above. I've done yogurt, cheddar broccoli soup, and I made pinto Beans and pureed them rather than doing canned. Tonight I made cauliflower but it got stuck. It felt like it was just sitting in my throat so I'm thinking no more cauliflower for me has anyone else experienced this?

I'm 8 weeks out and still can only eat 2 ounces of some foods. I can do greek yogurt, the triple zero. It will get better but it takes time. -
Everything tastes gross!
Inner Surfer Girl replied to stackinstones11's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Whatever you do, make sure you do your best to stay hydrated and get in all of your Protein. Even if you have to do more liquids than soft foods. Have you tried tiny bites of soft foods like Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, refried Beans, etc. Try small amounts of one food at a time. -

Yogurt recommendations please
Renkoss replied to plakbusta's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I eat the Light and Fit yogurt as well. I like them pretty well. I like that they are pretty low carb (most are just 9 g of carb unless they have chocolate on top...then they are 11g of carb). -
Scared to eat different foods
OutsideMatchInside replied to rydersmama's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
@@rydersmama I understand where you are coming from. You should fill in your surgery information so people can easily see where you are at. At 7 weeks, I wouldn't add stuff if you don't have to. I stuck with Protein and veggies until about 3 months, I suggest waiting that long, just because at 3 months you are more healed and when you add new things you might tolerate them better. There is no reason to snack on snack things. My afternoon "snack" is a turkey burger. I have 4 meals a day, all planned, all 20-30 protein to meet my protein goals. Just because you have a snack it doesn't have to be snacky. A Protein shake will do, or a Protein Bar, grilled chicken cut into strips etc. That early out I wouldn't have a protein bar though. If you decide to add some look for this brand http://www.amazon.com/ISS-One-Lemon-Cake-12/dp/B00Y7YO59W/ref=sr_1_5_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1457569618&sr=8-5&keywords=ohyeah+one+protein+bars these are the best protein bars I have ever had in my life. They don't even taste like protein bars. I skipped yogurt too. I didn't like it that much before surgery and after surgery I absolutely hate it. It is nasty and the nutrition on most of it just isn't worth it. I keep nuts in my purse as an emergency but I have yet to have any nuts since surgery. Later on though, you might need more variety. I have added a lot more variety to my diet because I find it is the best combat for head hunger. I find lots of substitutions for my favorites also. This is a lifestyle, not a diet, you have to work it in a way you can live with it long term. At 7 weeks you are still healing and probably still swollen, as you heal and things loosen up and you are more comfortable with food, your attitude might change. If you don't want to add things, don't, add them when ready. -

Yogurt recommendations please
Montana Gal replied to plakbusta's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I've tasted a lot of them and have been having trouble finding one I can eat. I finally found Dannon's Light & Fit Greek yogurt. They have several flavors, it's not the best but it's worth giving it a try. I didn't like the apple pie one, not good at all. Hope this helps, good luck. Oh, and they have them in the whipped mousse consistency too. -
My daughter had a duodenal switch
samijoe replied to samijoe's topic in Duodenal Switch Surgery Forum
She has to have 80-100 grams of Protein a day, 60 oz of liquid. Before today she could have yogurt, but it hurts her stomach, Protein shakes, sf pudding & Jello. All kinds of Beans. eggs. Wheat bread. She can only stand unjury unflavored protein. (She started trying out a bunch of them before surgery). Now today she can add all kinds of fish, next Wednesday she can add chicken, turkey. 2 weeks from today she can add red meat. The problem is she doing is getting sick of all of it!

Add either GENEPRO or unjury unflavored Protein powder to yogurt, applesauce, Jello, Soup, and thats an extra 30gms of protien. My program calls for 80-100gms a day of protein, and this powder has been great. I still use it and I am 7 months post sleeve. -

Maybe you could add a little fluid, like a little of a protein shake to the yogurt and thin it out? -
Yogurt recommendations please

I eat yoplait Greek yogurt and did so when I was cleared for purred foods. -
2 weeks out and Got cleared for yogurt, pudding and apple sauce. I tried the Greek triple zero yesterday and apparently that was way too think because after 2 tiny bites I felt like it was just stuck. What other yogurts that might be a thinner consistency would you recommend? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

How can I take 70g of protein a Day HELP!
m.sexton replied to leonelbreton's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I put a scoop of unjury Protein powder in my greek Yoplait yogurt (21grams of protein in the unjury and the yogurt has 13 grams ) you get 34 grams in that one setting. Taste great too. -
Good suggestions from Learningtolive. I also sometimes eat turkey/chicken chili or a deli meat/cheese rollup if I'm wanting something savory. If I liked yogurt, I would be eating that every day probably. I have a bag of turkey meatballs in the fridge, so sometimes I'll cook one of those, one egg, and maybe 1/4 cup cottage cheese and scramble that together. Protein packed and delicious! Generally, stick with protein and good fats and avoid bread/starches and you'll be good.

Inner Surfer Girl replied to InnerFitnessModel's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I agree. Just keep sipping. It probably will take all day for a while. I didn't have a puree stage, but does your food have to be puree? I would think something like Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, extra Protein shakes, or even refried Beans would be better than baby food. Definitely talk to your NUT about your options. It will get easier. -
Starting my pre op liquid diet..Help!

My surgeon considers yogurt a liquid. So I drank protein shakes and then had yogurt for dinner [emoji6] -
Day 5 post opp and fill like a millon bucks
dmelectrician replied to daniel1109's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I'm 5 days also, feeling great as well. Weird thing is that I have no cravings. I have been having Water, broths, tomatoe Soup, protien shakes and just had a geek yogurt today, with no fruit in the bottom of course. Good luck and hope you have great success Sent from my SM-N910V using the BariatricPal App -
I've tried pro-yo. It's like a protein yogurt, 20g of protein. The flavor I've had is only ok, it just tastes like a frozen protein shake.

Waiting to start the Gastric Bypass nutrition program
jhb724 replied to teedsg's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am new here too. I am taking a 50+ multi vitamin, 1000mg of vitamin c (500 twice a day), Pepcid twice a day and biotin 1000mg once a day, all required by the surgeon prior to surgery coming up in may. I am eating a lot of veggies and have cut out bread, crackers, chips, popcorn and no sugar. I have lost 11 pounds in about 8 weeks. I can only exercise a little due to two previous back surgeries but I have a good outlook on the program. yogurt is an acceptable form of protein, I use oikos triple 0 and it is great. it does have some sugar but no added sugar. good luck and enjoy the journey.
