I saw on a YouTube video someone saying they included Bang Keto coffee in their post-surgery diet. I’m unfamiliar with this product. Does anyone else include it in their daily eating plan?

I was doing Carnivore/Keto diet October through December last year. Lost some good weight. Used MCT Oil or Butter in my coffee to make it bulletproof or keto coffee. It was just a way to get more fat in my diet, which is useful in keto. The MCT oil sometimes gave me diarrhea.

Don't know what the bang means. I used to have bulletproof coffee for breakfast. Butter/MCT oil and coffe, blended. Plus all and add-ins like Turmeric and Cocoa etc. May be a good idea for sleeve people, probably a particularly bad idea for RNY.

depends on the person. I had RNY, and I could handle that...

P.S. I just googled "Bang Keto" - it's just a brand name

Absolutely, but I think about half of RNY people would struggle with a large hit of pure fat. I'm a bit scared to try tbh.

We were told not to do Keto because the extra fat isn't healthy, and can cause more gallbladder issues as you are rapidly losing weight.

you're right - Keto isn't the best idea for RNY people. We have a high protein requirement (well, as do sleevers), and many can't handle large amounts of fat. Plus it isn't sustainable for a lot of folks.

not sure if you were sort of responding to my comment above yours, but I meant I could handle MCT oil or butter in my coffee - NOT a complete Keto diet. For one thing, my protein requirements are even higher than most WLS patients' - 100+ grams a day. It'd be hard to do that - plus Keto - while staying within my calorie range. Plus my pouch doesn't like fat-laden meals.

I was referring to OP and keto coffee in general. I had sleeve, but was still told not to do Keto. I do eat some high fat foods like cheese, and as a treat I'll have the sugar free peanut butter cups, which are essentially Keto, but I try to keep fat and sugar both low.
