What's your best protein shake recipe?
rolosmom7 replied to rolosmom7's topic in Regular foods (stage 4)
Hmm crystal light is interesting - wouldn't have thought of it!! Smart husband! I haven't tried the syrups, the artificial sugary flavor has been what I want to get away from. Do they tast sugary or have that sticky sweetness? Thank you! -

I've tried fruit with unflavored and it's kinda gross lol. I will try vanilla with some berries. I always use almond milk, since it's 30 calories. Thanks!! -

Thanks! I have tried a lot of pre-mixed but want something so I'm less bored with them, like adding PB. I'm kind of experimenting at the moment lol. -
Check your program. I was allowed milk in my Protein shake for extra protein. A fudge bar doesn't really sound like sugar free popsicle IMO. They mean the basic ones which are Water based and have sugar free flavoring added.

What am I doing wrong? Please help!
rolosmom7 replied to mommabear2311's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Also - are you comparing the same scale? The one at the doc will always read differently. If you went from doc scale to home scale that could be why. But, I also recommend lowering carbs. That's a pretty high carb count. Best of luck, I'm sure you'll be fine ???? -
I still am amazed at the differences in all the eating plans. Mine has avocado on the list for stage 3, and others are told its a no no food. So interesting.
-
I ate it at almost week 4, it's listed on my plan, but made me sick.

I am new, and I use search everytime before I ask myself. The searching function isn't always the best. I'm sure it all gets old (especially the can I eat pizza, cake, etc.) But I know that I really appreciate it and I'm sure others do too.

Oh wow, that's a legitimate shake. I thought at first it was cold stone ice vream with just protein added. Haha. I'm trying to find some good tasting ones. That one probably has more than the 200ish calories I'm after but maybe on a Sunday or something.

Thanks! I have unflavored unjury that I add to everything. I had VSG and have heard about the 30g at once. Since I'm just starting stage 4, it's hard to get it in without a protein shake. I will definitely check Eggface. I must've missed thw protein shake recipes! But her beef stew puree was awesome! -
Is it ok to eat string cheese?
rolosmom7 replied to christinah's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm in stage 3 and I eat string cheese once a day (it's usually my lunch). It's one of the things I tolerate best. But it is on my plan. Pasta is on my plan to limit after 60 days. -
Ohhh did it work?
-
I hope so!!! Good luck. Try sleeping at an incline (like you were in a recliner). My husband has horrible GERD and it's the only way he can sleep.

Puree, blender and baby food
rolosmom7 replied to Butterflywarrior's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I also hate that thing. We have one, but bought a new blender bc the magic bullet is not so magical. -
I'll be 4 weeks out Thursday - tried a smashed avocado yesterday, which made me sick. I eat only what's on my plan list. Very frustrating. I do ok with fluids, and bought a cup that shows how much to drink before X time. Hopefully it helps. String cheese works well for me.

I don't think it was done wrong. Some people heal faster, that reduces inflammation, which is a huge reason it feels extra extra tight in the beginning. You could be a fast healer, or I could be a slow one or in the middle. Who knows. I can only get it 400ish calories a day and am exhausted so it's not the best thing. What I've seen on here is everyone is so different.

I'm 24 days out and have no idea where I'd put a 1/2 cup of ice cream. I make a protein smoothie type thing and it takes me almost the entire workday to get it in.

I take pantaprazole - I don't think it has a generic like Nexium or Prilosec. Yes, it's Protonix. Rx only.

Hello BP friends, Has anyone tried these products by Bliss? I'm most concerned about chicken wings (boo) and have red texture on my arms that this also claims to help. Any thoughts on this product or others? I'm 27 so have youth in my favor but am looking at 125 pounds loss to hit goal. I am tall at 5'10 so maybe that'll help some.

Ah yes! My sister makes one from scratch that I love! Thanks - I think I'll save my $20. -
24oz of fluid concerns me. That's low for anyone. If you kick that up to even 48 you'll probably see a small movement. 64+ even better. More importantly, don't damage your kidneys! Kidney surgery SUCKS!

Would You Get A Rny Tattoo?
rolosmom7 replied to Amour.de.lionne's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
Hmmm. I have 1 already and 3 planned. I never thought about marking this, but I am planning on one for self harm recovery. My wheels are spinning now! -
I didn't have it diagnosed, but it looked like it to me. Something about no chewing makes it so our teeth/mouth aren't as clean as normal. I brushed like 4 times a day. It's getting better. I'm 24 days out.
