What Your Diet And Exercise Will Look Like Following The Procedure

What your diet and exercise will look like following the procedure. I am having the sleeve. I want to set up a menu plan. I don't cook so it has to be very easy meals.

And what kind of exercise and when did you started to exercise after the surgery.

I do zumba, strength weights, yoga, machines, I was going all five days and then I stopped for # months and went back on my birthday on nov 8th then stopped again and been back 3 days.

Do you all have menus or a list of food that he eat all the time, like a set eating plan.

Thanks

what I have eaten today, trying to be good but been hungry all day.

7am Baricare shake 4oz, Water

11 yogurt

12 BC 4oz, 2 sl reg cheese, 4 oz diet coke

4pm shake 4oz, 3 1/2 cup mixed broccoli, cauliflower, carrots

6 pm 2 slice reg cheese...still hungry

7pm 1oz honey hame ....didn't like it.

8:18pm Baricar 4oz, raw carrots, very hungry

I need to do a better list.

I'm a month out and I try to have a "real" meal at 7am 1pm and 6pm with Snacks in between. No gym for another 2-4 weeks for me.

Todays meal plan:

wake - Water with pills

7 - cream of wheat with unjury stirred in

10 - 1-2oz egg salad

1 - 1-2oz cubed chicken from a previous nights dinner

3 - 1-2oz cottage cheese

6 - not sure. some kinda meat with a little vegetable

9 - snack - cottage cheese or maybe a SF ice pop if im low on my liquids

In between im drinking water with some crystal light in it. And i have a Cocotein form Isopure open in the fridge if im low on Protein. I kinda wing it based on how it's going. My goal right now is to work more solid meats in and to really focus on feeling "satisfied" and not get to "full".

I'm just over 2 weeks out.

Exercise is walking, walking and more walking. I'm not cleared for other exercise at this point. Walking is a great way to recover!

For meals, I'm on the pureed stage, so this is what my day looked like yesterday:

Morning - scrambled egg or 1/4 cup oatmeal or cream of wheat

mid-morning - Protein shake

lunch - ground turkey (about 1/8 cup) w/ 2 tablespoons of refried Beans topped w/ salsa and greek yogurt

mid-afternoon - Protein Shake

dinner - finely diced chicken and cooked broccoli (pureed)

Evening snack - protein shake

My doc wants 80 grams of protein minimum - so I will require 3 shakes for the foreseeable future. I can't eat enough to get in much protein, but it's nice to eat food.

I will warn you - at this stage, getting in all your requirements feels like a full-time job. I am constantly looking at the clock because you can't drink 30 minutes before or 30 minutes after a meal or shake. It gets cumbersome. But, every time I think it's annoying and OMG, I can't take it anymore...I look in the mirror or step on the scale and I see a difference. Totally worth it!!!!

Good luck.

I'm 6 weeks out today. Getting all my fluids in is still a full time job that I often fall short of.

Mornings.. greek yogurt, scrambled egg, oatmeal or shake in hot Water

Water water water

lunch.. tuna or chicken salad, or turkey deli meat with green Beans or some other Protein

Water water water

dinner.. Turkey chilli w cheese, chicken w veggies, string cheese, tomatoe Soup w cheese, lean ground beef w sauce and cheese or something high in protein w veggie

Snacks... string cheese, protein shake, beef jerkey, broth w plain unjury, PB2 (yum),

Water water water
