I’m to purées for a couple more days then I’m open to “as tolerated.” I’m up and moving everywhere actually back to school as a teacher since yesterday (day10). As far as protein goes I’m getting about 50-60grams from protein shakes and Greek yogurt mainly. And water I’ve done better the past two days as I’ve gotten over 40oz both days.

Yesterday, Sunday, Dec. 1 Maintenance : 5'2" / 1yr PO Sleeve / 116.3 lbs **** Xmas party season has officially begun. Had an indulgent Saturday (client holiday party) and an even more indulgent Sunday (family bday lunch then had a Friends-mas at BFF's place as she and her fam are leaving for vacay next week. Spoiler alert: I was taken down by desserts and alcohol this weekend. And I am being punished for it by feeling like absolute CRAP this morning: sluggish, tired, cranky, crampy, bloated, and unbelievably thirsty. It's only 11:30am and I've drank over 2 litres of water already (plus 1 coffeee & cup of broth). Oh, and the scale says I've gained 2.9 lbs since Friday. I'd love to say its all poop, but I had a total-intestine-clearing number 2 yesterday as a result of too many Italian almond cookies, so that's definitely not it. Anyhoo...I'm enacting a weekday dessert embargo for the remainder of the month to balance out the inevitable dessert eating on weekends. **** 8:30am - coffee w/ stevia + tea w/ stevia 1:30pm - 1/2 side caesar salad sans croutons + 1/2 side goat cheese and beet salad + 1 slice Lemon Curd Cake + 2 glasses red wine 3:00pm - 1 slice Lemon Curd Cake + 1 cup greek yogurt + 10 blueberries + 5 green grapes + 1.5 oz almonds 6:00pm to 2:00am - 6 oysters on half shell 5 oz prime rib w/ gravy 1 cup spring mix salad w/ strawberries, goat cheese & candied walnuts 16 mini Italian almond cookies 3 mini biscotti 10 dark chocolate covered coffee beans 1 oz candied ginger 2 HUGE pistachio cannolis 4 glasses red wine Totals: 3574 cals - 123g Protein - 301g NET carbs - 186g fat

my "indulging" is probably a normal person's typical Thanksgiving meal. It's not putting away 3000 calories like I probably did before surgery - and I don't let it go on for days afterward, either, like I used to. It's one and done now, and only on special occasions. But I did eat much more yesterday than I normally would. I had about 2 oz of turkey, 2 oz of ham, 1/2 C sweet potato casserole, 1/2 C of stuffing, maybe 1/2 C of Brussels sprouts/bacon/cheese casserole. And probably 1/3 C mashed potatoes. I had some cranberry sauce on the ham, and gravy on the turkey & potatoes. After dinner, the pies came out. There were four different kinds. Before surgery, I probably would have had three whole pieces so I could taste most of them. This time, I decided on the two I most wanted, and I had half a piece of each. With whipped cream. So essentially, one piece of pie. SO....one plateful of food, plus a piece of pie. this wouldn't have been the case my first couple of years post-surgery, though. Back then I would have had maybe 2 oz of turkey with some vegetables. And the second year post-op, I think I added about 2 T of stuffing and 2 T sweet potato casserole. And both years I brought my own Light & Fit pumpkin yogurt to have for dessert while the others were eating pumpkin pie. anyway, I don't really feel guilty because I rarely eat as much as I described above, and I get right back on track the next day. If it was a usual thing, I would gain my weight back pretty fast, unfortunately. I spent this morning at the gym - two fitness classes plus walking the track - and I'll really push fluids and eat lightly the next couple of days to offset any damage...

Any August 2019 people out there?
AnnieD78 replied to big_ange's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Glad to see everyone is doing well! I’m a verrrrry slow loser. I try not to compare myself though because I know everyone’s body’s and journeys are different. I’m down a little over 50 lbs. I’d like to lose about 60 more. I’m struggling with animal proteins, they really don’t sit well. Soft foods are still the safest bet. I’m honestly not following my plan too closely because all I’m supposed to be eating right now is protein (from animals or beans or yogurt/dairy) and veggies. I stalled for 5 weeks 2 weeks after my operation. And then again more recently. What has helped me is upping my calories, which was my nutritionists suggestion. I need to start exercising, I tried Orange Theory and signed up but now I’m scared to go back. I almost starting crying during the class bc it is so overwhelmingly difficult. Lol. -
Check In: 1. Personal goal: Drink more Water & continue to try out new on plan recipes that the family can get on board with. Water wise I have been doing better this month , so thanks for the challenge to get me in that mind set. Recipe wise there has been some, but it has been a crazy month, so I have stuck with the tried and true more lately. 2. Surgery type: RNY almost 6 months ago. Still losing and working toward first goal weight. 3.Stats: Nov. 1st: 195.4 lbs - BMI 29.7 Today Is: 187.8 lbs - BMI 28.6 4. Food I am most grateful for today: Yogurt- I love that stuff!

reduce sugar - low carb eating reco
AZhiker replied to Billowyfungus's topic in Vegetarian or Vegan Eating
Did you have a question? You can still get tons of carbs/sugar through plant based foods. Oreo cookies are vegan, for example, as is cane sugar, molasses, agave syrup, and processed grains (flour), all of which will raise your sugar levels, jack up your insulin, and turn all those calories into fat, Healthy whole food plant based (WFPB) eating utilizes legumes, nuts, seeds, WHOLE grains (not processed grains), a lot of veggies, and some fruit. Most MO people can lose a lot of weight with this, and I am finding that I am maintaining my under goal weight just fine. (Lunch today was soy yogurt with protein powder, slivered almonds, 6 different kinds of seeds, and some berries mixed in.) (Supper will be lentil soup, steamed butternut squash, and a "Budda" bowl of greens, shredded brussel sprouts/carrots/red cabbage, tomato, avocado, flax/hemp seed, chick peas, cooked whole grain - any combo of amaranth, teff, quinoa, buckwheat, millet, sorghum. Dressing is made from homemade cashew butter, nutritional yeast, and vinegar.) WFPB does NOT utilize sugar or variations thereof, extra salt, processed foods, processed oils, alcohol, artificial ingredients, or animal proteins. My personal take on it is this: I have lived in and observed developing countries that are mostly plant based. These people are healthy, strong, and do not have cardiac or obesity issues. They grow their own food, for the most part, yet will still eat animal protein on special occasions (weddings, holidays, specific celebrations) or when there is a lucky find, such as a nest of cassowary eggs. However, they do NOT eat animal protein 3 times a day, like most of the west does. I am not 100% PB at this point - more like 80%. I still eat some fish/poultry (home grown) maybe once a week. I think this is in keeping with the practice of many indigenous traditions, and allows me more flexibility with family gatherings. (I don't want to be that vegan who gets invited out to eat and then won't eat anything that is offered - that's a sure fire way to never get invited out again.) I still make my choices very healthy - never anything fried or breaded, and I avoid desserts with sugar or wheat. I hope that answered your possible question. Sorry if it was too long winded. There is a lot of good information about WFPB on the web. -
This liquid diet is harder than I expected. Though, I would kill for soups. I'm on shakes only for 2 weeks. But that ends this friday. Then I get soft foods! I can't even express how excited I am for cottage cheese and plain Greek yogurt and scrambled eggs... Until friday I keep reminding myself that the liquid diet will be over soon. Soon......

protein powder in sugar free jello?
S@ssen@ch replied to loridee11's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I did it. It was a little "different", but not unpalatable by any means. 1 word of caution: many protein powders may curdle at high temperatures. Make sure your jello is cool enough for your protein powder before adding it. I agree with the others. Protein powders do better when mixed with dairy like milk, yogurt, puddings. BUT, if you're trying to achieve a protein supplement for your clear liquids phase, protein jello works: Here's a recipe (substitute SF jello): https://unjury.com/recipes/jell-o-high-protein-high-calorie/ -
Day1 - 2week Post-Op Diet
lvidacovich replied to Fatboyslim1's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
That seems very similar to what I had and was allowed in my first two weeks post-op which was what we called the liquid phase. I had no issues at all other than when I tried to make tomato soup with full fat milk. I'd skip the cream of wheat or rice - that WAS on our plan but was removed under the new nutritionist. My carbs were well under 20g a day during the liquid phase. I generally had 2 protein shakes/supplements a day and then some sort of meal for the last - soup, yogurt, pudding or jello, etc. I still think there will be hunger as all of this is liquid or slides out of the stomach quickly and easily. I can't believe you're getting a sleeve at 265! I mean to each their own and I wish you luck but I would likely be happy just to get to 265 from my starting weight (we're the same height). And I am assuming you're male. -
Howdy all - I am going under the knife on Dec-3, and just received my diet protocol. Teaching hospital in the US, and they have just changed the initial diet criteria to the following: 3 - meals per day (2oz) choice of: Greek Yogurt, SF Pudding, Strained of cream soup, Cream of Wheat or rice, Cottage Cheese. 3 - Protein supplement per day min: >20g protien, <190calories, < 5g sugar. 48-64oz H2o daily, 30 minutes before meals. I have been viewing here for a short time, and this diet actually seems realistic, because it seems that a lot of new post-op patients have talked about feeling hungry because there is no mass in their original post-op diets. Seem logical that this diet will have a sense of volume or mass that may hold in my baby stomach, and perhaps alleviate that initial "hungry" feeling ? thoughts?

protein powder in sugar free jello?
FluffyChix replied to loridee11's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yes. It's also good mixed with plain greek yogurt and liquid vanilla stevia. Stirred together then chill until set. Kinda like that sour cream jello creation our mom's made back in the 60-70s. I just made this. I wouldn't recommend it until totally healed from surgery and having zero food issues or swallowing issues cuz it's really dense! -

Food Before and After Photos
FluffyChix replied to GreenTealael's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Ok, just in case you are saying to yourself: "Self? I feel like I need more chemicals in my life." I give you strawberry banana protein fluff. I actually had it mixed with peanut butter Greek yogurt and it was obscenely satisfying. I don't even care that my tongue is kinda numb. hehe. Or that I'm glowing--just a little. This was the yogurt concoction. I had already eaten half of it. Sorry for the gooberish pick. SUPER filling! Super filling! You can use any flavor of jello or protein powder. This was 100% whey isolate although all the recipes call for casein. But it still worked. I'm freezing the clouds to see what that texture will be like. I'm thinking I will use some cheesecake sf jello pudding mix to try it. The real recipe calls for strawberries frozen which sounds yum, but it's also 22g of carbs! Yikes! So I did this instead. Full Recipe of Strawberry Banana Protein Fluff (5 servings-about 1 1/4 cups = 230g of fluff) Single Servings of the Fluff (about 45g) Single Serving of PB Greek Yogurt Mixed with a Serving of Strawberry Banana Fluff (dunno how much it weighed) -
I know, right? 😆 But honestly, I got a huge amount of detail to prep me for surgery with every step of the post-OP diet spelled out clearly. I'm not thrilled for a week I'll be eating Greek yogurt and string cheese, but the week after I could have fish (of course I'm allergic and I won't, but I could!). A month will pass before I know it.

Can't handle protein shakes
MarvelGirl25 replied to bigdaddyff's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had the same problem. I would try the unflavored protein or yogurt Good luck! -
Yogurt, cottage cheese, chicken, fish, shrimp, avocado, deli meat, cheese, eggs, and soups. Beef was on the list however, unless its cooked for a long time like in a stew, I cannot get it chewed to the consistency that is required. So I stay away from beef. Chicken and tuna are my go to. Just remember chew, chew, chew.

VSG Two Weeks Post-Op Suggestions
Guest replied to InterceptorNYC's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
ok I will play devil's advocate here I started soft foods after four days, I had refried beans, hummus, yogurt , fruit cups avocados, and eggs. But do what your Dr says, everyone is different. -
any kind of bean, hummus, guacamole (homemade) yogurt for me, Also mandrian oranges in their own juice,

I'm feeling pretty good. I did set a water reminder on the baritastic app, but I'm pretty good a sipping throughout the day. I have a long way to go on liquids and was not tolerating protein shakes very well, so I've switched to Carnation no added sugar added to 1 cup skim milk and I add a scoop of Genepro to it to make it a protein bomb. It isn't as sweet or thick as my protein shakes. I have also added Genepro to thinned soups and yogurt, so it helps me to meet my protein goal of 70 grams. I have a few teaspoons of this a few times a day. It's nice to feel like I'm eating real food.

I liked yogurt, mashed potatoes, mashed avocados, mashed banana, jello, whitefish salad, tuna salad, etc.
