Week #2 - how do I find low sugar drinks?



Recommended Posts

I'm irritated!!!! I have moved on to creamy Soups and drinkable yogurts about I can't seem to find drinkable yogurts that are low in carbs and sugar. Nurse said I could do Activia but it's full of carbs and sugar.....help?

Unless you are going to use products with artificial sugars you won't. As your nurse how much sugar/carbs per day or per X amount of calories is allowable and then plan your menu around that. Keep in mind your body needs some carbs and sugar to function so if you are working out you may have a little more leeway.

I make Choboni protien shakes, just dilute the yogurt with skim milk. It is great.

I used carbmaster from Fred Meyers. It's their own brand and really low carb. My NUT told me to thin them down during my full liquid but I just had them straight. They are yummy if you have a Fred Meyer near you.

when I was ready for yogurt we get the carbsmart at krogers. everything else had to much sugar. when the carbsmart is out of stock my next choice is chobani the plain. as far as drinks I buy a Water Enhancer at a healthy living market that has stevia as the sweetner. comes in a few flavors. I also kept organic regular juice around and dilute 50/50 that was me I diluted a little more then my program called for. otherwise I drank and still do caffeine free ice tea and I use stevia . In the Protein Shakes I tried so many the only one brand that didnt hurt my tummy and wasnt to sweet to me was the pure Protein shakes. has many flavors. very few carbs I know it has a differant artificial sweetner but I put up with that sweetner for a few months till I was able to handle more solids. it took me almost 3 or so months....many days I didnt care to just drink. my shakes were accounted for fluids so I was getting both in. hope this helps..:)

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
