  1. hi im morbidly obese and cannot get any surgery so i would like help with trying a post op diet. i understand that it would be hard because sometimes the hunger can be greatly reduced or gone with the surgeries for some people but i wouldnt be any more hungry trying a post op diet as im always hungry now no matter what i try. im looking for general instructions as i know i would have gotten some with a surgery so it wouldnt need to be exact in this case. so basically what would be the amounts (volume) of what foods and how frequent and maybe a calorie amount? (for the time when people can begin solids post op) thanks so much

    help with post op diet

    so i got some very good vitamins with a high absorbability rate and i do get blood work every 3 months. i looked at some of the posts here and this is a summary: calories-- 500 to start with going to 800 to 1000 for life 1/4 to 1/2 cup of food 2 to 6 times a day vitamins and blood work high protein from 63 to 80 grams less than 100 grams carbs less than 5 grams of fat and sugar at a time (or in a day im not sure) this was gleaned from several different posts does this sound about right? for me to try?

    help with post op diet

    im not going to be able to get the surgery what should i do? the dietician food plans ive gotten since i was 14 and forced to begin dieting- even at a good thin healthy weight- dont work. ive already tried everything (except what i financially cant do) thats why im resorting to this type of thing. ive been thru my meds and reduced them - the ones that could be holding me back. ive exercised 4 hours a day only to maintain a healthy weight but i cant do hardly any now with age and health conditions. (mainly pain) and have been trying to find exercises that dont hurt. so im at a loss and need something more extreme. like wls without the actual surgery. i have no problem with 100 grams carbs. my aim right now is way less some days i hit 0 and with as high of protein as i can. nothing nothing nothing whats wrong?

    help with post op diet

    im not able to get the surgery due to many reasons biggest being financial. next being that the wait time is so long that i would be really old (not joking) so it would probably put me at even a more risk getting it done. i dont mind calorie restriction for however long but it has never worked but on the other hand i have not done seriously low calorie restrictions. i cant even get appetite suppression meds as that's financial too. i really want to live longer and losing weight would rid me of several health issues.
