Your interpretation of a perfect LapBand eating day



Recommended Posts

Mine might be as follows:

Breakfast: Greek yogurt with berries and low fat, high Protein granola

Lunch: spinach salad with grilled chicken and low fat dressing

Dinner: Baked salmon with dill sauce and broccoli

Dessert: sugar free popsicle

Yours?

Of course in reality I eat nothing for Breakfast a lot of the time and eat too much fish, too few salads and not enough fruit and vegetables. And a cocktail when the mood strikes me.

Thats no where near enough for food me. I dont eat 3 meals a day. I eat prob about 6 times a day, small "meals". I wouldnt even call them a meal cause they are too small. Your meal looks good, I would just make sure you are adding some healthy fats in there: olive oil, avocado, cheese, etc. You need these things. I also dont see too much dairy which isnt a biggy, but its something I make sure I get plenty of :thumbup:

Breakfast: Breakstone's Cottage cheese Doubles and a Kashi fruit & Grain bar

Lunch: Grilled chicken, green Beans, 1 starch

Preworkout: banana, light cheese stick

Dinner: chicken breast w/ tossed salad

Depending on what time I workout, I may have a muscle milk after for the Protein.

Total for the day ends up at about 1100 to 1200 calories. Allergic to seafood, so my Protein is a bit boring lol

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
