Fiber!

My pre-op diet goal set by my surgeon is to have 60 grams of Protein and 35 grams of Fiber daily. I'm having a very hard time getting the fiber in. What are some good supplements and high fiber cereal(That aren't terrible tasting) that will help with this issue.

Thanks,

If you're having a hard time getting in the recommended fiber, you can add Benefiber to your food. It's completely tasteless, and a good way to get in some extra on top of your fruit, veggies and 100% whole grains. I happen to love All Bran Cereal, but since being banded, I no longer eat cereals.

Cereals are OK in moderation but they're high in carbs and if you add milk to them they become a slider food.

Very high fiber foods include:

Most all Beans 1 cup =around 15 g

Peas

Raspberries

Blackberries

Broccoli

Pears

Avacados

Thanks so much for the suggestions! I purchased some benafiber today. I'm trying to get as much as I can through healthy foods and will supplement the rest.

Cereal is a dangerous food for me. It's like dessert, and I can't control it. I was never a big cereal eater, unless it was after dinner :rolleyes:

Buy some Flax Seed, it's found in the baking isle, excellent source of fiber and omega 3's, just sprinkle it on your food
