    I love Greek non-fat yogurt

    I love Fage 0% Greek Yogurt add a tablespoon of peanut butter and honey. It's so good and a great way to get protein. I stay full for a long time after eating this.
  2. Today is day 12 post op and my biggest issue is stomach irritability, I guess is the best way to describe it. It never stops and is quite uncomfortable and embarrassing. When empty it is calmer but with any food whatsoever it's obnoxious. I know it has to be gas but I rarely pass any, more likely I will have diarrhea. It's loud, rumbly, and at times painful, but always uncomfortable. Of all the things to be concerned with, I know this seems trivial but if someone could give me some guidance, I'd sincerely appreciate it. I'm to the point that I'm abstaining from food too much. I know that's not right and need to fix this. So far, my soft foods are eggs, Soups, and yogurt. My shakes are Premier Protein. I'm always able to make my Water intake.

    Portion size

    My nut says that the quantity progresses until you are six months out and that the first six months is when you lose most of the weight you have to lose. During the 1st month post op my nut says 1 ounce at a time up to 6 times per day. During the 2nd month post op my nut says 2 ounces, 3rd month post op my nut says 3 ounces, 4th month to 4 ounces, 5th month to 5 ounces, and the 6th month to 6 ounces. The number of times per day is supposed to scale down as the portion sizes scale up a bit. I am a little behind schedule because for awhile anything over 1 ounce made me throw up. I am closer to 2 ounces and just over 2 months out, so I am following their guidelines the best I can. At 4 months, that is a half cup (4oz). My nut and surgeon require that we measure our food and not eat more just because we can, as that can lead to stretching your pouch. All of these measurements are for dense Protein - like chicken. If you are eating things like refried Beans and yogurt, then the quantity *can* be larger without causing pouch issues. I have been doing 2 ounces of greek yogurt for about a month now. I try to stay away from anything that isn't super dense because it tends to have less protein and I am having a hard time getting to 60 grams per day!

    pureed foods?!

    I didn't have a puréed stage, just a soft food stage. I ate a lot of cottage cheese, yogurt, refried beans, pudding. The second week of soft foods I could add soft fish so I had salmon, tilapia, and tuna.
  5. I'm almost 6 weeks post op! My eating options are SO limited right now, there are a couple of things I crave on a daily basis....I LOVE McDonald's Unsweetened Tea w/Splenda. I get a large and sip it over time! It's a lot and I'm getting in plenty of fluids!! (Water makes me vomit, twice last week) Also I'm loving my Greek yogurt, it's sweet enough to feel like I'm having dessert!! What are your must haves? Kim

    Having Trouble Eating

    I wish I knew how to help you. The stress you must be feeling with every fiber of your being! My only thought is to do what you can to relieve some of the stress, and think of the food as medication you need to survive. Keep whatever you can see as the most palatable on hand and quick to grab--yogurt cups, protein bars, string cheese, anything. You need the calories/protein and the fluids or you'll end up in the E.R., which will only make matters worse. Sending some cyber love your way. Hope it gets better soon!

    pureed foods?!

    Refried Beans are GREAT during this phase. I melt a tiny bit of fat free cheese on top and add a tiny dollop of fat free sour cream. Bam, you've just eaten taco bell! (lol) Also, my surgeon's office said that a meatball with a little sauce and ricotta is good. Tuna, yogurt, cottage cheese, soft fish are all great choices. My fiance actually made me puree'd butternut squash with some seasoning, and it was great! Get creative, or you'll get crazy!! Good luck
  8. At my first evaluation with the nutritionist, she put me on a 1600 cal. diet. Since June 1st I have lost 37 lbs. My Dr. requires a 2 week liquid diet to shrink my liver. My banding is set for Oct 6th, so I started the pre-op diet yesterday. It includes 3 protein shakes, 1 sm SF, FF yogurt (no fruit), 1 cup Campbell's 98% FF cream soup, 16 oz. skim milk & minimum 64 oz. SF clear liquids (SF Jell-o, SF popsicles, broth, & Crystal Lite type drinks.) So far I haven't had a problem with it, but it's only day 2. I might say differently next week. LOL
  9. Hi everybody. I started my pre op liquid diet and I’m 4 days in. It’s not easy. I feel lightheaded and have no energy. I try to keep busy as much as possible. I drink protein shakes, jello sf, O% fat Greek yogurt and homemade soups. I can eat puréed soups as well right? Like broccoli soup or pumpkin soup. Why are all pre op diets so different? Some can eat lean meats or fish. Would it be really bad if I just ate some cooked tuna or chicken? Btw my surgery date is Oct 12
  10. At 7 weeks your body is still healing. Your band isn't providing restriction yet so unfortunately it all falls on your choices right now. If your doc has u on solids already try more protein at lunch. I would be starving if I just had a yogurt. I usually need a 3:00 snack of some kind Try not to go over 4 hours without some sort of protein..maybe this will help the starvation monster until you get restriction.....plan, plan, plan. Everything you will eat that dat including snacks...that helps me. Chin up You can do this!!

    Post-Op Sweets

    Healthy choice Greek frozen yogurt is good - creamy and low sugar. I have one whenever my husband has his ice cream.

    1week post op 72 oz fluid/day

    I drank 80 ounces my first day post op! My IV wasn't working right and I was getting dehydrated so the doctor reluctantly told me I could try rehydrate orally.. though he didn't think I'd be able to drink that much so early on. I had no issues drinking other than some spasms during the first few days if the drinks were too cold.. My first day out of the hospital, I could drink 16 ounces of chicken broth in one sitting and drink a whole bottle of water or gatorade. On day three post op, I was drinking some herbal tea and I accidentally took a three swallow gulp.. and felt nothing..... No pressure, no nothing.... I felt like you, I was happy but also worried because I was different than most people.. It was just because I didn't have inflammation in my sleeve so it was open.. Even when I started on things like yogurts and cottage cheese, I could eat more than most people.. I didn't really feel real restriction until I started eating chicken and meats.
  13. Starting my mushies today!!!!!! Some things on my list say to purée and some don't. I kinda thought we had to purée everything right now. For instance, it says I can have yogurt for breakfast. Do I need to throw it in the nutri bullet first?
  14. OutsideMatchInside

    Just wondering.

    My tastes have not changed but they have came more extreme. Things that I was lukewarm on pre-op like scrambled eggs, I hate post-op. Never liked yogurt, despise yogurt now. Loved fish before, really love fish now.

    Pumpkin spice anywhere!?

    You can but pumpkin spice in grocery stores inn the spice section. I get it in Natures Pantry. I just made my plain far free greek yogurt with pumpkin spice and .5 Splenda. If you brew coffee you can add it to the grounds and then brew.

    Random sneezing

    This just happened to me recently. I was on the bus and I was randomly sneezing and I didn't know why. Normally I would eat my breakfast (yogurt) on the way to my destination but this time I didn't and was sneezing until I got off the bus and ate my normal breakfast.

    Phase 2 post op

    The programs are all so different that it really depends on the preferences of your surgeon/team. I received a whole bound book covering what is and is not allowed. My program requires protein shakes, clear liquids and greek yogurt for the first two weeks, advancing to pureed foods after that for the next 4 weeks.. On purees, I can have chicken, fish, beans, tofu, cottage cheese, greek yogurt, some cooked veggies and fruits well as the clear liquids stuff. They want 4-5 meals per day consisting of no more than 1/4 cup of the above. I also have 1-2 protein shakes to meet protein goals. Unlike many on here eggs, oatmeal and avocados are not allowed. I go back in 2 weeks and then start solid foods. I am a little worried about the proteins because the pureed ones are a bit hard to get down without adding liquid (broth, yogurt, mayo) to the food processer. I did some pureed baked salmon yesterday that was great!! Good luck!!

    8 days post op

    I'm 9 days post op. I'm sorry you are feeling hungry. On your full liquid diet can you have yogurt, pudding and cottage cheese? I can. I wouldn't say I feel full, but I'm not hungry either. Sometimes when my family is eating I feel a little pang, but it's emotional. I'm at McDonald's right now and my nephew is in the playland. My sister and he are eating and I sort of want it, but I'm managing with my unsweet tea. Today at Publix I found a Wolfgang Puck Organic butternut squash soup. It was really good and felt satisfied after I had a small amount. Keep trying different things and good luck. This part won't last forever.
  20. It's time to buy my proteins! Huzzah! This was discussed in my class, but I clearly didn't retain this information. I have two questions on the pre/post op liquid diets. As I recall, liquid was define as anything in a liquid state at room temperature. This included popsicles, broth, shakes, etc. So question one: Does yogurt count? I'm not sure how I'd define that consistency! I've found a bunch of Greek yogurt flavors (without that I enjoy and would love to put them into rotation during this time if I'm allowed. Secondly: How many of these per day am I supposed to have? Obviously there's the breakfast/lunch/dinner ones. Do I have a full shake for 2 Snacks a day as well? For those of you in the pre/post op liquid diet or who remember theirs, I'd love to hear when and what you ate!

    5 days Post Op

    I know how you feel! I am 6 days postop. This last week has been really hard. I had a little of a rougher time than most other people seem to have with the surgery. I've had a lot of pain from the gas and generally have felt very uncomfortable. I did clears for two days then full liquid up till now. I am soooo bored with the things I am able to eat. I was allowed during this time to have no chunks yogurt and sugar free pudding. Also, the last couple of days I went to Jasons deli and got a couple of Soups and just didn't eat anything chunky out of them. And, I have been super hungry at times. Tomorrow I start the blenderized (puree) part of my diet. I can have some more things. I'm excited. Just keep focused on why the doctors want you to slowly progress your diet. A big cup of warmth beef broth helped me feel full many times. You can do it!

    5 days post op

    I would wait. I'm on liquids for two weeks and can't incorporate yogurt or pudding or Beans until the puréed stage! Katy W- Louisburg, NC DS scheduled for 12/26

    Protein Samples Just Came

    I am trying the pure protien shakes, not to bad. i was looking for a protien powder that was unflvored so that you could ad it to like yogurt to boost the protien. Anyone have any have any they have tryed? Let us know what you think Glove ,
  24. I was sleeved 8/27 and was 315 the day of surgery and today i weigh 285. I have had two stalls already but dr and nut keep saying i am doing great. I am a little reluctant to try new foods as most aren't agreeing with me so i still mostly stick to 3 protien shakes a day, one triple zero greek yogurt, a banana or grapes (to help with constipation), and lemon water. Otherwise, i just graze whatever the family is having or whatever i cook them, but like i said most of it isn't agreeing. I usually have a shake with them at the table while they eat. And if you are still having periods, dont forget bloating and water weght from that is a factor. That was actually the culprit of my first "stall". And my nutritionist told me if i feel like I've overeaten or eaten badly, i can always do a reset and go back to liquids for a day or two. Sometimes that can also kickstart a stall back in gear. Good luck and don't be too hard on yourself!

    typical menu for a bander?

    Ok today for Breakfast I had bircher meusli with chopped banana and kiwifruit on top - we put the meusli in the fridge the night before with organic apple juice poured over and in the morning mix in a spoonful of yogurt and add fruit. Yummy. For lunch I just had a banana and an orange, I'll probably have a handful of macadamia nuts later this afternoon. dinner tonight is going to be leftover zucchini slice - a sort of fritatta - and salad. I had a latte down at the shops before. I'm not into Protein much, dont really believe in putting protein before everything else, I'm more concerned with getting my fresh fruit and vegetables in. I think what amounts to a couple of eggs in the zucchini slice and some nuts, plus what's in the dairy I've had during the day is plenty. I know that's a fair bit different to what's generally advised in America but it works for me. I'm feeling healthy and well and losing well.
