need an example menu



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone I went to see my doctor due to heartburns . He gave me some medicine for that but he also asked me about my calorie intake which I told him it's 600-750 he said its too low I need to eat 1000-1200 a day. More now that I'm thinking at the gym. Now I have a hard time eating 750cals as is can't imagine what to eat to get me to 1200cal

He also put be back at eating every 2hrs no exceptions. Can someone that is eating that much give me an example of their menus please.... Thank you all :-)

How far are you out from surgery? What were your Surgeon/Nut guidelines? Your doctor may not be well-versed in WLS. I'd consult the Surgeon/Nut.

I'm not sure what my calorie intake is, but I do eat every couple hours. Morning, I ease my stomach into fluids and take my medicine (thyroid). then a Protein Bar, then yogurt, eggs or toast with Peanut Butter. I always eat only things that have nutritional value. Then in the afternoon I eat a few vegetables, Soup (which is not that nutritous but easy to take). Then I eat fruit in the evening as a treat. Hope this helps!

There's a thread here where people are sharing their myfitnesspal names. If you're using that app, it's good to be able to see others daily good diaries.

I'm 10weeks out and my surgeon was the one who told me to eat that many calories

      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.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
