Does anyone know when it's acceptable to eat cheese, if at all? I'm 10 days post op.. Just curious, because I'm making stuffed chicken for my family for dinner tonight, and I'm on puréed foods.. & Cheese has protein.. Just rambling lol

I didn't get cheese back til I was over a month out. Something about it can melt and gum up the healing stomach pouch/intestines, so you need to wait til it's healed. Literally at 6 months out, I eat cheese every day. It's my best friend when it comes to meals.

I'm in the pureed stage and I put some cheese on my refried Beans and melt it before eating.

I did too! Even the tiniest bit just makes a huge difference! I used a pinch of Parmesan

Has anyone tried Nutritional Yeast in place of cheese? I use it on steamed vegetables yummy, healthy and adds a lot of flavor.

It's not like yeast you use in bread.< /p>

Never heard of it. Does it have any Protein? I'd prefer to add a powdered Protein to other foods.

It has a ton of protein! Google it- it is fortified with B12, too

So the nutritional yeast tastes like cheese? I guess it would be okay on Soups and some dishes, but not everything.

Where do you get the nutritional cheese?

It's in more high end grocery places. Google it, and it might bring up where you can find it.

      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! 😞
