Recommended Posts

My typical day

Premier Protein shake on the way into. Work.

P3 Protein snack around 10:30

Sliced sausage with a veggie or leftovers from the night before. I love shrimp sautéed in butter and garlic too for lunch around 1

String cheese or hard boiled egg around three or 4. I like beef Jerky too.

I have been loving 4% ground beef patties with Swiss cheese on top and a roasted veggie for dinner. I do chicken breasts a lot too.

I was sleeved in June. Today I have had a banana, a cup of coffee, a Protein Bar, a cheese stick, half a grill cheese sandwich and some mini-pretzels with Peanut Butter. Also, about 32 oz of Water. For dinner, I will have a small chicken tigh and some cabbage. I eat everything on a small saucer. Not sure of the size though. I realize when I work out, I have to eat more. It varies a little every day but not much. I eat a lot of boiled eggs, peanut butter and drink a lot of shakes too.

I don't have a typical day. It varies depending on my activities. Today is a light day because I didn't go to the gym. On non gym days I eat lighter and really watch my carbs.

Breakfast was a scrambled egg with cheese and hot chocolate with a scoop of Protein powder.

lunch was a scrambled egg with cheese and grits

dinner will be a cup of Soup and I'll probably add a scoop of Isopure naked to it.

I may have an orange as a snack if I get hungry.

On gym days I have a pre-gym Protein Drink with Fage 0% Greek yogurt, Protein Powder mixed with Water. Add in vary as to how I am feeling. Sometimes fruit, sometime a bit of cacao powder, sometimes almond butter, etc....

lunch , then dinner. I try to have a salad with Protein for dinner or a protein and a spinach for dinner. Afternoon snack are always optional if I am hungry.

I am vegetarian so my Proteins are typically Beans, tofu, TVP and occasionally a non meat product like Beyond meat or Gardein.

I average 70 - 80gms of protein and day and try to keep carbs below 50.

I don't know. I think I eat pretty much the same way I ate pre-WLS. Beans a veggie burgers always felt pretty dense to me and they certainly are filling.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
