In looking for good high Protein, low carb, low sugar meal choices I'm repeatedly directed to Paleo recipes...I have to say that after looking at several I'm thinking this is the way for me to go...is anyone else on board?

Do you mind if I ask what it is? A type of diet? Have not heard of it. I guess I could look it up uh. :) I won't be eating for almost another 4 weeks anyway.:(

Paleo is a lifestyle of eating like our ancestors did millions of years ago (or so they say!). No preservatives, lots of Protein, low carb. No bread, rice, Pasta - just things that used to move or grow. I think it's low in dairy also. My stepson is into paleo.

I can't go without carbs! I tired Atkins a few months ago - lasted 4 weeks before I caved. At least with paleo you can eat lotso fruit (can't with Atkins).

Good luck with it!

I looked it up, sorry I can be a little slow sometimes. :rolleyes: Sounds like a good food plan and it makes sense too.

Just today heard about it for the first time. A phlebotomist was telling me how great she feels after eating this way for a month. Don't know if I have the will power but sounds very healthy.

would it really be that hard? I mean I was kind of under the impression that we were allowed very limited carbs now that we are banded anyways...I know that my mother in law was banded over 3 years ago and hasn't had bread since...she said she can't b/c it gets stuck....

I don't know, maybe I'll be a modifyied Paleo dieter!! LOL I just notice the high Protein and that seems to be what is what we should be after.I'm still on mush now, but am definitely looking forward to 'real' food.< /p>

Also, just curious, I'm at day 10, I was losing pretty good ever since the liver diet, now I stopped and I'm hungry!! Will I stay at about this weight until my first fill?

Everyone one is diff, so you can't really tell. For every yes, you will read a no.

I unfortunately can eat bread, never been stuck on it, so have to make a conscious effort to stay away. I usually do.

I know I can't, and don't want to give up dairy. So maybe I'll follow your lead and be modified too!

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
