I suspect you are right. HW 420 SW 347 CW 327 Sleeved April 10, 2017

Ive seen it made with Greek yogurt instead of cream cheese also. So that might be more on your plan. That being said, if your recipe is anything like mine there is less and a tbsp of cream cheese per cloud... HW 420 SW 347 CW 327 Sleeved April 10, 2017

On my pre- op we were allowed smoothies made with up to a quarter cup of fruit, almond or soy milk and protein powder. HW 420 SW 347 CW 327 Sleeved April 10, 2017 -

mrsdaniel2013 replied to Nynjesq's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Did you already get a slow cooker? If not- go for an Instant Pot instead. It has a pressure cooker feature that is fabulous and you can make your own yogurt! Do a google search on Instant Pot recipes. There are a lot! HW 420 SW 347 CW 327 Sleeved April 10, 2017 -
Thank you. Pills are not a magic cure for evwryone. But neither is insulin. Some need it, some don't. Sometimes you only need it for a while. HW 420 SW 347 CW 327 Sleeved April 10, 2017

It is pretty good. I'm doing okay. I'm allowed soft food now but the purreed stuff is a lot easier to get down. I am a terrible chewer and have to really concentrate on slowing down. But I feel good.

The liver shrinks from low carb food. It depletes the glycogen stored in your liver. HW 420 SW 347 CW 327 Sleeved April 10, 2017 -
Okay. So I understand that bread is bad. And that we are to basically avoid it forever. My question is- is this all bread? All bread-like products? What about things like no and low-carb bread or wraps? Are these going to be forever no-nos as well? HW 420 SW 347 CW 329 Sleeved April 10, 2017

Protein shake -like premier protein- used to make sugar/fat free pudding... Saved me more than once. Along with broth. And sugar free popsicles... I lasted 21 days. Youve got this! HW 420 SW 347 CW 327 Sleeved April 10, 2017 -
I made a big pot of soup and pureed it well. It is a pea soup with some lactose free skim milk, chicken thighs and spinach. Seasoned with curry. Yum!! HW 420 SW 347 CW 327 Sleeved April 10, 2017

Dinner out at 14 days post op
mrsdaniel2013 replied to Mama V's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Ha ha... So true. My husband is slim, trim and muscular. And he is getting so used to me giving him my leftovers because I cant finish something. And he gets to eat all the yummy/bad for me stuff... Tonight I showed him how to melt cheese around his pepperoni... None for me! But since "we are one" he gets to enjoy things on my behalf. HW 420 SW 347 CW 327 Sleeved April 10, 2017 -
That's what I wanted to hear. I get that I wont be eating foot long subs... Like ever again. And I made my peace with that a long time ago. I was just wondering about alternatives. I have a recipe for a "bread" that would be high protein as it is mostly made with egg-whites and oat fibre. Once I get past some of my soft food stages I am hoping to be able to introduce it.

How will I take my pills?
mrsdaniel2013 replied to Arthur Dent's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
You may not need your metformin after surgery! I was on 1000mg per day before surgery and I didnt need it within 3 days of my surgery. HW 420 SW 347 CW 334 Sleeved April 10, 2017 -
How long was your preop diet?
mrsdaniel2013 replied to seekerkey's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I did mine for 21 days. It was intense. Are you allowed protein shakes? One of the things I did was mix a protein shake with sugar/fat free jello pudding. Infound it quite filling. HW 420 SW 347 CW 334 Sleeved April 10, 2017 -

Anyone do the sleeve in mexico?
mrsdaniel2013 replied to painish's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm 14 days post surgery. Dr. Garcia from Tijuana Bariatrics did my sleeve. Zero problems and I have high blood pressure, am (was?) Diabetic with a high BMI. They are awesome! HW 420 SW 347 CW 334 Sleeved April 10, 2017 -
Watch those nuts. Sneeky buggers. I find they stick with me way to long and hinder weight loss. It is also very easy to eat more of them than you intend. HW 420 SW 347 CW 334 Sleeved April 10, 2017

Can liquids stretch a sleeve? I am in my 2nd week post op and still on full liquids. I can drink 8oz of liquids in a 20-30 min timeframe. I just worry that I'm going to stretch it before I start! HW 420 SW 347 CW 334 Sleeved April 10, 2017

What do you do to up your protein and calories?
mrsdaniel2013 replied to Jess55's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
They make a peanut butter flour that is called "defatted" - essentially the yummy Peanut-Ness without the calories/fat. I've had it mixed with Greek yogurt or to flavor smoothies. HW 420 SW 347 CW 334 Sleeved April 10, 2017
