Putting myself on a pre-op liquid diet
Pam Peltz replied to pookybear's topic in Pre-op Diets and Questions
Yup. All about carbs (and increasing weight loss). -
Munchies nothing sounds good
Pam Peltz replied to tink65's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I know how you feel. How long you been on it? How long before / since surgery? -
3 weeks on liquids. 2 protein shakes a day and 3rd meal of 1 cup of any non-cream based soup. I can have sf Popsicles and 1snack a day of either Greek yogurt or 1cup cottage cheese. Sf drinks, decaf coffee or tea and vegetable juice (no fruit juice). That's it.

Putting myself on a pre-op liquid diet
Pam Peltz replied to pookybear's topic in Pre-op Diets and Questions
I am not allowed fruit or fruit juices on my pre-op diet. No cream based soups (tomato). Might (?) consider limiting those things too. Good luck. Cannot imagine he didn't give you a diet to follow!! -
Band to Bypass on Monday!
Pam Peltz replied to sciteacher53's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
My band to RNY is scheduled for the 20th of February. I'm anxious to hear how yours goes. I'll be following!! -
Count your blessings. I have 3 weeks!!

Just occurred to me when checking out my vitamin samples.... Is your iron low and have you tried a B12 supplement??
-
Wow you do have your hands full. Maybe you can get some help from women's group at church or family?
-
You can do this. Try adding some things you are allowed but don't eat often. Maybe jello or Popsicles or an extra serving of soup. It helps me and I'm only on day 2 of my pre-op diet. Drink more liquids and read or do a craft to keep your mind off food. You CAN do this!!!! I'll be praying for you.

What is the best tasting vanilla protein powder you've found? What about most interesting other flavor? I have some combinations I want to try and don't want to mess it up from the beginning by bad tasting protein.
-
Yup. Pro-active is the way to go. Nothing about what you said sounds right. Is there another Bariatric surgeon you can consult with? I'd sure try. I'll be praying for you.

How Long Was Your Hospital Stay?

My Dr says plan on 2-3 since I am having band removed and RNY in same surgery. Mainly to get swelling down from 2 procedures. -
Where is everyone from?
Pam Peltz replied to AmandaD's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm in New Mexico. -
Realizing your losses will be different at the start of your journey is half the battle. You also have to deal with hormones and slower weight loss as a result. Just do the best you can do and don't compare yourselves. You are different. Hang in there! And we are here if you need us to share your victories and support when you need that. You can do it!!!

I cannot believe it. Had my pre-op appt today. I can have 2 shakes a day 8 oz of soup and 1 Greek yogurt or cottage cheese or Popsicle for snack. I do this for 3 weeks til surgery. Seems a bit restrictive....? What pre-surgery diet are you on?
-
February 20th RNY surgery date!
Pam Peltz replied to Pam Peltz's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Ok thanks. I'll count my blessings. Guess it could be worse. Good luck all. I also start tomorrow. -
Finally.... A Date!
Pam Peltz replied to BustedBeauty's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
It's closer than November and YOU HAVE A DATE!! Awesome. You can do it. Got my date today of February 20th. 3 weeks on the very restrictive I'm on seems forever. What pre-op diet you on? -
My nut told me before my band surgery to make sure I get 120 grams a day. This was in the liquid diet weeks before surgery. I am seeing on here that most common is 60-65 grams a day. Is this correct? Seems real low to me. I get my diet in February.

I am having surgery late February. I am 60 years old 4'10 and weigh 265. I am worried that I'm going to look like a dripping candle! Has anyone had a similar situation? I guess those "youngsters" probably have more elastic skin.
