Eating & drinking at the same time??
GreenTealael replied to stinaaaxxo's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
You should push for the science behind it from your surgeon the next time you see them, then make the decision on if it's a big deal to you or not. They say it's for various reasons but you really want to hear it from the person who altered your anatomy, then challenge them...they are the pro. I challenge doctors *all* the time, but ultimately consider their medical opinions as valid and I'm portent when I finally come to a decision... Safe Journey! -

Intermittent Fasting Daily Menu/Results/Accountability
GreenTealael replied to FluffyChix's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
Still IFing lol, today only a 16:8 because celebrated my 11 month post op with a good friend by having brunch. I had a some of a Belgium waffle with eggs and turkey sausage (rarity, not likely to have encores), the rest of the meals were simply protein bars and coffee as we had a very busy day together. Noticed today that I'm definitely still the same weight as when I altered a shirt a while ago, maybe last month, but it's much looser. Hmmmm. Also I've been told that I fake or hide my weight well, as in I look lighter than the scale indicates... Something to consider. -

When will the hair loss stop?
GreenTealael replied to josephsmom's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
The virus usually become more dormant the further from infection, but Abreva is FDA approved and proven to shorten healing time. Other natural remedies that work well are not usually topical or as swift acting so those require planning and consistency. -

Favorite restaurant meals post WLS?
GreenTealael replied to BelleOfBatonRouge's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I usually get a naked turkey/or vegetarian burger (burger wrapped in lettuce instead of bread) or just tea and coffee when everything is too crazy. Ask for calorie info if it's not provided, that should help guide your decisions -
how do I make myself try new foods?
GreenTealael replied to veehappy's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
Go simple at first. Variety can come later. Try to focus on the best quality of what you do like. Start with steamed broccoli in the bags with Gordon's fish fillets instead of fish sticks. Then work your way up to higher quality unprocessed foods like fresh cooked broccoli and pan seared haddock/cod/pollock (what fish sticks are made from) Safe journey -

I quit smoking!
GreenTealael replied to Kmartin6168's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Amazing. CONGRATS! Try Seltzer until you can get to the point where you drink just water. -
These days, very high nutrition/low crap protein bars (rare), toaster edamame, Seaweed thins, nuts, tea & hot chocolate (slightly higher cal drinks can be snacks too!)

How to Start Meal Prepping After Bariatric Surgery
GreenTealael replied to Kristin Willard, RDN's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Magazine
I completely enjoy meal prepping because I'm am lazy and like instant things. I do, however, struggle to find containers that I want to reuse more than just a few times. I've tried them all. The plastic ones seem to absorb flavors/odors. The glass ones are to fragile or heavy. The metal ones leave a flavor to the food. I'm being neurotic, I know. Any suggestions? -
