Try it again ovet the weekend without the nuts or with less of them. Or plain (likely greek-no artificial sweeteners) yogurt with shredded/flaked/powdered coconut and other toppings. Perhaps even a pure coconut extract (like used for baking) mixed into yogurt but ive never tried this... -

I never use pre-sweetened yogurt. I get the lowest carb Greek yogurt and make my own. Here's a matcha yogurt with strawberries, almonds, and poppy seeds. The taste and texture is way better IMHO than premade--for only 10g net carbs. Here's my blueberry matcha one: -

Ugh and I love the yogurt. I’ve been able to eat the strawberry light and Fit with berries in it and didn’t have gurgling and “other” issues lol Prob the nuts. I have slowly weeded out artificial sweeteners from almost everything...exception so far is yogurt. Even w my coffee I use Truvia. It was def and adjustment. What other yogurt could I eat. Seems like if you go low cal low fat it’s artificial sweetener. If you don’t think it’s full of sugar and fat. -

It may be the sugar substitute used in the yogurt or the higher fat content of the nuts or the combination Sorry 💜 -
I have a coworker that also got lactose intolerant after surgery. She had good luck with Fairlife milk but if you feel you aren't hitting your protein goals it would be a good idea to get plant based protein shakes or yogurts. You could also add the powdered peanut butter to your drinks. Good luck! That's rough!

Can anyone post a sample of diet
KCgirl061 replied to gabybab's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
For breakfast I have either eggs or yogurt. Lunch is often a P3 and raw veggies. I have a quest bar for an afternoon snack - thats when hunger comes roaring in and the chocolate in the quest bar helps tame the beast. Then for dinner its lean meat and veggies and sometimes a small high fiber/high protein tortilla. (Right now for dinners I'm working through some shredded pork roast I made last weekend - yum!) -
This is an average day for me: Breakfast: 1 egg, 1/4 cup melted fat free cheese, a little broccoli and mushrooms in a scramble, small glass of tomato juice to take my pills Lunch: Lean Cuisine at work, or a salad with protein like chicken if I go out Dinner: Chicken and vegetable stir fry Optional snacks (0-3 a day): Yogurt, banana, light string cheese, quarter cup mixed nuts, low calorie yogurt bar, etc. Minimum 64 ounces of water

February 2019 weight loss buds
Sheribear68 replied to TheMarine79's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
Nope. Many days I don’t hit protein goals. Although my goal was set for 60gm/day. I just got home from running a ton of errands and was feeling a bit hungry so I just had an 8oz glass of milk and 5 almonds. Now I’m quasi-full and feel more energized. My food consists about 85% protein, mostly in the form of dairy protein. Milk and almonds is my go-to snack (if I need one) and about 3 times weekly lunch is a 90 cal tuna pack with a bit of plain Greek yogurt to make it creamier and go down easier. The rest of the time lunch is just a smaller version of what I had for dinner the night before. I can’t do any kind of flavored yogurt because of the 17 days I was on a liquid diet and most of what I was allowed to eat was sickeningly sweet Protein Shakes and the like. If I never have to drink another Protein Shake, I’ll be a very happy girl. Anyway, with the milk and the tuna I get “close enough” most days. When I think back to my diet pre-surgery, it was pretty crappy a lot of the time so when I fall short of my protein goals currently, it’s still more protein than I was getting before. -

tortoise... 😅 funny... Congrats, You're doing an Excellent job. Everyone lose at their own pace. I really don't want to lose my hair. I'm sipping my water, I'm taking my Vitamins/Calcium, and hitting my 46 grams of protein daily because I'm trying my hardest to not lose my hair. Hopefully it's enough. Oh, also one episode of 600 lb life, the man had problems with his teeth because of Protein and calcium deficiency. I went to the dentist yesterday, so far no cavities... hope it stays that way. So with your 2 meals, do you think you're able to eat enough protein? My ready protein snacks: Beef Jerkies, Slim Jim, Yogurt, Pumpkin Seeds, Almonds -

You know how everyone was talking about dumping etc. I haven’t had it but recently I switched flavor yogurt and added pistachios. Really really yummy but Boy oh boy. Yesterday my stomach was so sick and I had to go to the rr like three times. Ate same yogurt...and now stomach is gurgling like crazy!!! -
What I find so interesting in being on this board is how different everyone's post op diet is - like I had my surgery on 3/18. I was given clear liquids that first day. I went home from the hospital on 3/19 after I had eaten some blended food (yogurt). I was on the blended texture diet for 2 weeks and this last Monday, switched to soft food. I didn't have a liquid diet phase - went to pureed right away. It seems the more I read, the more varieties I find. My program is pureed for 2 weeks with RNY and 4 weeks with sleeve and then to soft food for 2 months and then to regular textures. It just seems strange that it isn't more consistent.

9 days post-op yogurt and peanut butter???
KateBruin replied to iliana00000's topic in Pre-op Diets and Questions
PB2 is amazing! I make a shake with PB2, honey, strawberries, banana, double scoop of whey, almond milk and Greek yogurt. So much protein and vitamins and then I freeze it to be “ice cream” -
9 days post-op yogurt and peanut butter???
KCgirl061 replied to iliana00000's topic in Pre-op Diets and Questions
Instead of peanut butter go pick up some PB2! That way its more concentrated protein, way less fat and you can thin it to the consistency that is safe. Same thing with yogurt, thin it with high protein milk like Fairlife. -
9 days post-op yogurt and peanut butter???
gabybab replied to iliana00000's topic in Pre-op Diets and Questions
I had a similar problem. I couldn't stomach any protein shakes. I ate high protein yogurt and drank fairlife milk. I divided the milk into 4oz portions. I also drank Campbell's chicken noodle soup broth only. It filled my insides and made me feel better. Good luck! -
i am starving and I cant stand the protein shakes. I tried calling the hospitals hotline to no avail. What should I do? Haven't had any protein all day.

VSG /Dumping/Late Dumping
FluffyChix replied to GreenTealael's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Do a small test. And if you have a blood glucose monitor you should try it out. Eat 4oz of Greek Yogurt. unsweetened. nothin with it. no flavor drops. no nada. just the Greek yogurt. Use the lowest carb, lowest sugar brand you can find. Do this test fasting. 1. Take blood sugar before eating (in a fasted state). 2. Eat yogurt. 3. Take blood sugar 30minutes after you start eating. 4. Take blood sugar every 30 minutes afterward at 1 hour, 90 minutes, 2 hours, 2.5 hours, 3 hours, 4 hours. *Assuming your bgs rise initially, then drop very very low somewhere around 2+ hours, this should catch your extreme high from it followed by your extreme low. If you know when the low is gonna happen you can kinda schedule some food to counteract this fall. Such as eat some 1oz of dense protein an hour or 90 minutes after the yogurt meal. By doing that, you're following sugar with protein which helps keep your levels steady. Make a list of all the foods/qties that you test this on. That way it gives you your power back! -
VSG /Dumping/Late Dumping
GreenTealael replied to GreenTealael's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Ok updates: This has absolutely continued to happen. It happened this Sunday evening and monday afternoon. Both times I was minding my business eating protein rich foods (greek yogurt w/ granola & chicken with roasted vegetables) I felt like i might pass out during the incidents but i didn't. Just wanted to cry a little. But i think it has now happened the very most with yogurt, so I may cut back or give it up completely. (It's not the granola... It was happening with every variation of a parfait i made. Only the yogurt is the common factor) -

My update! Surgery was 2/25 so I'm like 5 weeks out. Down approximately 34 pounds. I'm down 3 inches each on my hips and waist which is exciting! Still technically on a "blended foods" diet but have cheated a little with some over cooked roasted potatoes and some noodles - mostly because I just got back from a week and a half in China! Travelling was tough, but mostly because I felt like I was missing out on the culture by not being able to have the food. I packed protein shakes and ate mostly eggs, a little tofu, a tiny bit of potato or noodles, and soup. I finally have a tiny bit of an appetite but still am mostly just eating because I'm supposed to. I would say my energy is at about 80% of pre-surgery levels. Overall feeling great! Looking forward to seeing my doctor on the 10th and hopefully getting approval to have more variety in my foods! Good thing I love eggs, cottage cheese, and yogurt lol Sent from my Pixel 3 using BariatricPal mobile app -
Past two days I've hit 62 grams of protein myself. Two shakes made with a local store's protein powder (half scoop in each with a half cup of milk), half a Greek Yogurt, and one of the BariatricPal soup mixes. I can't wait till Thursday because I move on to purees and can add a bit more variety. I'm very much looking forward to hummus, and this buffalo chicken puree thing that I'm eyeing.

Week after surgery and I'm struggling
gabybab replied to Bonines's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
I can't stomach whey protein. The smell is off putting and I gag taking a drink. I've been short on protein, but am making my goals now that I'm 5 weeks post-op. I used high protein yogurt and fairlife milk to get closer to my goals. They have chocolate, but it's not my thing. I ate a lot of bean dishes, you can puree them. Good luck, you will get there! -
Hi all. My gastric sleeve surgery was on March 17 2019. I am two weeks in. Problem is, I am constantly hungry and have only lost a total of 6 pounds in the first few days and nothing after. My hunger is not head hunger, as I am back to work and quite busy and not thinking of food but almost every hour my stomach starts growling and is hurting with hunger. I am eating whole liquids and soft foods like yogurt. Any ideas if this means that my surgery may not succeed?

Found a bag of shelled pistachios but they aren’t chopped up but I can easily do that. Got the Light and Fit toasted coconut yogurt. Hoping they taste good together! If not they will be good eaten separately. -

I haven’t noticed my taste buds changing just yet. I’ll fine out on Tuesday when I move to yogurt and cottage cheese.
