I was sleeved on 12-19-11. I've been able to get in my 3 protein drinks, at least 64 oz. of liquids and my supplements from day 3. I'm on my 17th day post-op. I still drink 3 protein drinks a day. I've added some mushies, like oatmeal, bananas, yogurt, baby food, peanut butter, and pureed split pea soup. The problem is, since I added mushies, I'm ALWAYS hungry! No, I don't drink and eat. What can I do to feel satiated? Or is this just my body adjusting to another change (adding mushies)?

5 days post op diarrahea?
linesj replied to Laurba's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Diarrhea is the plague of my life. After surgery it was bad, but I attributed it to the whopping dose of antibiotics they gave me. That's a major problem for some people. Yogurt is a big help. I ate some every day and was better every day. There is also some sort of dried form you can sprinkle in liquid. For some reason yogurt was on my list of "full liquids" so I just nibbled on a little at every "meal" -

Post Op Day 2 Need Ideas On What I Can Eat
Maddysgram replied to goingfoit's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My paperwork on a full liquid diet consist of: SF yogurt, strained cottage cheese, cream of wheat,grits,malt o meal (whatever the hell that is) vegetable & fruit juice diluted 50/50 with water, liquid protein supplements. At this point begin up to 1 protein supplements per day. -
I didnt like any of the protein shakes I tried. Then I saw someone mix a crystal lite pack with their no fat greek yogurt and liked it so I mixed it with some 1% milk in a blender and total of 28 grams of protein and it wasnt bad, a little bit of a dry taste but so much better than the protein shakes I've tried. Used an orange pack and tasted like an orange cream cicle, also used a peach one and if you like peachy tasting things that was good too.

1st Week Post Op Diet Dilemma
bluegudren replied to N2DONNAT123's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I made several home made soups post op, and used my magic bullet to purée. It worked out fine. I even took meaty tomato sauce and puréed it. It was delish. I was so sick of sweet protein shakes! You can also drink Kefer probiotic yogurt drinks. Those are very filling. Making home made soup is the way to go. It gives you something to do as well as some good standing and moving time. -
I Had Surgery Jan 26 In Mexico. Tomorrow I Can Start Full Liquids. Advice?
Shannalee replied to Miss Meow's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had surgery on the 23 and still on clear liquids... After a week the dietian suggested a yogurt drink and protein shake a day. However, she said at this point no blenders due to excess air and comfort after surgery. If you are feeling like your ready to advance your diet that's probably a good sign everything is working as it should. Funny how the recommendations can be so different eh? -
Ok, Am I Beating Myself?!
SkinnyDown replied to ANewMe83's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
By whole cup do you mean a full cup, or a 5oz yogurt container, or 4 oz yogurt? How did you feel? Are you supposed to be eating that already? I did full liquids for a couple weeks. I couldn't even drink an 8oz Protein shake in one sitting the first few weeks after surgery. I'm unsure how you kept all that down. I'm almost 11 weeks out from surgery and I still can't eat a whole cup of anything. Not sure if you over did it, what do you think? I think only you can answer that question. My best advise is to talk to your NUT as soon as possible, and make sure you are eating the right things, and the right amounts. If you are having issues with head hunger....my best advice I tell everyone, get to a therapist, asap. That could be the very thing that helps you if you feel you are eating too much this soon after surgery. I wish you luck with everything. -
My surgery was Aug 27th. I was 350 day of surgery and now I'm at a standstill at 265. Before I could only eat 6oz. The size of a yogurt cup. Recently I increased going to the gym and am now Gibson.g myself so hungry. Today I had soup and then lunch was 3 inches of a turkey hoagie. All low fat. But not even an hour later my stomach was growling so bad and I was hungry again so I ate the other 3" of the hoagie. I'm not supposed to track calories but I am supposed to track portions. Am I eating to much??? Is there anyone else hungry like me? And how about going to the gym, is anyone really hungry afterwards?

what are you eating after 6months out
newbie99 replied to SugeilyMunoz's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Grilled shrimp, chicken, steak and veggies. I try to stay away from processed foods in general. Greek yogurt, popcorn, and Popsicles for snacks. Occasional brown rice. -
Puree Food ideas?
Julia_N replied to lapband 8-26-09's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
One of my favorites is what I call eggs Rancheros. I use 1/2 cup of fat-free refried Beans as a base and add a bit of low-fat cheddar or Mexican-blend cheese. I top it with two eggs softly scrambled (or you can poach them), some taco sauce or smooth salsa, more cheese, and a dollop of low-fat sour cream. I haven't had a fill yet, so I don't have a lot of restriction and can easily eat this much. It's quite filling and feels like "cheating" when you can have Mexican food. I also like a cup of non-fat Greek yogurt with a couple of tablespoons or 1/4 cup of unsweetened apple sauce. I add a Splenda or two and sprinkle cinnamon on it. If I can find some premixed apple pie spice, I'll try that. -
How Much Are You Eating!?
Ms skinniness replied to vonego82's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
What kind of texture is it? Is it soft foods like yogurt? Pureed? Dense proteins like chicken? -
Help plz
RJ'S/beginning replied to Fat Pat no more's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had the same problem....I switches to Soups and cottage cheese which has twice the amount of Protein that yogurt has per serving. Soft cheese and pureed Beans... If I absolutely had to I would still drink a Protein Drink...But measured that out 1/3 at a time ......pudding is good too, not a good habit but will get you through in a pinch! -
Measuring amounts-and protein shake ? please help!
Chele H replied to Cyr's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
There are two different types of measuring cups.....liquid and dry/solid. The liquid measuring cup is the glass one with a pour spout, they usually list ounces. Mine is made by Pyrex. You can get one at Walmart or Target. The dry cups are the ones that stack inside each other. pour your liquids into the measuring cup to measure before you eat. If you buy pre made sugar free pudding, they are usually 4 oz. cups. I would use the dry measuring cup(1/2 cup size) to measure out your yogurt. I drank Premier from the day I got home from surgery, wasn't too heavy. You can thin it out with some Water if it is too thick. -
Did anyone find that once they lessened their dependency on Protein shakes and stared eating more real food, their weight loss progressed faster? Been stalled for 3 weeks now after 9/29 surgery. Right now, a typical day is... B- pure Protein shake S- dannon light and fit vanilla Greek yogurt (1 carton) L- canned chicken (3 oz) with light mayo S - pure protein shake D - lean protein like fish or chicken (3 oz) S - pure protein shake Usually ends up at about 700 calories and 120g protein. So those numbers are OK per the NUT. But, wondering if the shakes may be causing the stall. Going to start tomorrow having a scrambled egg for Breakfast and some nuts for morning snack, keeping 1 shake a day. May have to supplement with some unflavored Protein powder to get to the number. Just wondering if anyone else stalled due to the shakes. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I am 9 weeks out and have one fill of 3 ccs. I have dealt with acid reflux for years. It flares up from time to time. Prior to the band, I would eat things like red meat or chicken and I could feel it work its way through my digestive system until it eventually cleared. Severe indigestion. Now instead of passing, the indigestion is quite painful and I have to regurgitate. What I have found that I need to do, is take something soft or smooth, like yogurt, cottage cheese, skim milk, a protein drink to "soothe" the tract so that I cans wallow food. If I dont, I have a miseable eating day. A scrambled egg is impossible to get down, I sucked the juice out of a slice of grapefruit and thought I would die. Even swallowing when I brush upsets my stomach. Do the soothing technique and things are fine. Anyone else experience this or reflux? The staff at the doctor's office says that I am eating too fast and taking too big of bites. I think it is more serious than that. Any thoughts? Thanks!

When you were on the Pre-op diet....
Gaffer replied to susansilver's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
They dont want to eat yogurt an cottage cheese for 3 weeks? :heh: I guess I did'nt really have this problem as my wife could fend for herself and Jr. just eats formula and baby food. What I found to be harder were those social situtations where you did not want to tip people off that I was pre-op, especially when my diet consisted of shakes, pickles and salad. Andrew -
I make a smoothie every morning and have found (thru trial and error) that the ones I like the best are made with the Amplified Wheybolic Extreme 60 from GNC. I use the chocolate and the vanilla and mix with fat free milk, banana, and other fruits like peaches, mango, strawberries, etc. I also use Greek yogurt and sometimes I add almond butter. You can use peanut butter, but I prefer the almond butter. Add ice and blend well. It makes a lot and is very filling and gives me about 30+ grams of protein depending on what I add. I use 8 oz. of milk. I might try some of these other ideas too. Thanks for sharing.

I am 4 days out of surgery. It went well, I got home, and wow did I miss the PCA! Also the easy out and back in bed. Everyday I feel better. My husband and I went for a stroll. It was so beautiful outside and I could smell every blossom. Heaven. My nose is supper sensitive and the house smells are hard to take. I ate yogurt today and it was good mixed with some vanilla Protein powder. Each new accomplishment feels satisfying. Go me.

Going Back To Work.... Any Suggestions Or Advice From The Vets
Joiebean replied to andi0120's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
A few things that I found and did when I went back to work were: You will probably be beat after work. Good idea about going back on a Thursday. That's what I did and by friday afternoon I was SOOOOOO tired. I rested the majority of the weekend. So just don't be disappointed if you go back and realize you can't keep up with the same pace that you used to. Second, I bring all my food with me. I was the epitome of the opposite of this before surgery, I bought breakfast at DD, lunch at either a diner or chinese, and then dinner, we typically went out to eat. No wonder I was so unhealthy!! Anyway, I realized 1) I wouldn't be able to get all the protein in if I didn't bring my own foods and 2) those old places didn't really have anything sleeve friendly. I"m two months out and I still can't find much that I would want to eat there. I usually bring a shake and some greek yogurt and a string cheese. That gets me through the day and then I have a really lean high protein dinner with a little veggies if I have room. I am still having a hard time getting all the fluids in during the workday because I am so preoccupied. But we'll all get there. :-) Hope this helps. It really helps if you have an understanding boss and coworkers too. Cause your feet will probably be dragging for the first week. But the energy will come back! -
Hi guys, I just weighed in for week 2 and only lost 2lbs. I lost so much the first week, 17.5 that I expected more like 5 the second week, at least 3 or so.... Is this normal? I had no pre-surgical diet except to do Clear liquids the day before .... HELP..can I be doing something wrong already? I am still on full liquids, eating 3 shakes a day for Protein.. Muscle Milk light, made with Water.. about 140 cal per shake and eating Soup and yogurt in between.. yogurt is 100 cal and light. I'm not getting more than 4 cups water in tho.. and will try for upping it to 6 today... any input?

For me, all day nausea, horrible gas, stomach cramping and discomfort, followed by really bad bathroom issues. It's horrible. RTD Protein drinks, even lactose free ones, make me horribly ill. I used to love Oh Yeah or Muscle Milk but they make me so sick I can't stand it. I stick to Syntrax Nectars and mix with Water, coffee, tea, soy milk or juice. The good news is that my intolerance has gotten much better the farther out from surgery I get. I still can't drink a glass of cow's milk, but I can tolerate cheeses, a small amount of yogurt or ice cream, cream sauces if they aren't too rich, and most important to me: a splash of cream in my coffee. ~Cheri

Have you tried them?. I am on puréed foods and have started using this in my chicken salad instead of mayo. 25 calories, 1g fat, 2g carbs, 2g protein. I like the taste and I'm trying to squeeze in protein wherever I can.
