How are fellow March sleevers doing?
diahat replied to ElseeG's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Today was my 2 week appointment. Down 20 lbs! Getting tired of liquids only. Never thought I would be so excited about adding creamed soups and yogurt to my diet! Sleeved March 26 HW 262 SW 256 CW 236 GW 135 Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using BariatricPal mobile app -
Hahahaha! I get ya! I get ya! I definitely had to keep home girl down on the farm this weekend cuz I was "having ideas" and "notions." LOL So ok, if I can't wrangle those ideas. I have plans for them! Mac n cheese (old)>>sub with cauliflower mac n cheese. For cheese sauce, I cheat (cuz again, we're talking 1/2c totes vol.) and use Tostitos Queso in a jar or anything that is around 2-3g carbs and less than 50 cals per 2-4 tbsp serving. I also can deal with the Classico Lite Asiago Romano Alfredo and use grated parmesan to make an "Italian" version of that. Pizza (old)>>carb balance or carb sense flour tortilla nuked on a paper towel until very crisp. Top with grated part skim mozz or red fat Sargento's Italian blend and your fave pizza topping. Put under toaster oven until brown and bubbly. Cut into 1/4s and enjoy a whole 1/4 slice ( LOL ) Quesarito (old) Now you're talking real ass work here girl! - So I'd do this only when you have appropriate leftovers: ground taco meat and cooked and seasoned cauli rice. Then I would just make a quesadilla using the carb sense tortilla and fill it with your favorite stuff from the TB version and use the Tostito's Queso and get some TB Hot Sauce from the store. Done! Boom baby! Craving extinguished. Enjoy both bites. hahahahahaaha! Grilled Cheese Sandwich (old) Use Sarah Lee red carb/cal bread of some other kind. Not really sure what they are since it's been years since I've had them. OR you can use parm, pork rinds, and almond flour to bread slices of zucchini. Spray with olive oil spray. Bake until golden on each side. Top half with part skim mozz and let it melt. Top with the second slice. And serve with a side of the lowest carb/cal marinara! Here's my Fluffy Chix Cook link: http://fluffychixcook.com/crunchy-low-carb-fried-zucchini-grilled-cheese-gluten-free/ Brownies, go to the recipe section and see all the molten choco cake recipes using protein powder, coco, egg whites and Greek yogurt.

How are fellow March sleevers doing?
Hopeful_GS replied to ElseeG's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I’m sorry to hear about your Seroma!! I had to google that, sounds very painful. I’m going to the dr for my 2 week post op on Wednesday, I was planning to talk to him then about the pain. Luckily, the pain is now only present when I bend down or reach high with my left side. So that makes me think that it’s probably just muscle pain- who knows. I was stalled for a few days but finally lost a pound. Feeling super relived and ready to go on puréed food. I’m seriously craving tuna and roasted broccoli (puréed of course). I haven’t had anything other than Protein Shakes, sugar free popsicles, sugar free pudding, and fat free yogurt since March 15th!! HW: 420 SW:320 PRE-VSG: 301 CW: 274 GW: 185 Sleeved: 03/26/18 -

4/17/18 is my day! Anyone else having surgery in April? How’s your Pre-op diet going?
abarr7302 replied to abarr7302's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Thanks Star! You started early. Today so far I’ve had water and a oíkos zero sugar yogurt. It alone has 15 grams of protein. Lunch will be premier protein shake. They’re not too bad. -
Any April surgery buddies
Elfields84 replied to Relle2190's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was sleeved April 3. Am I the only one who was immediately put on stage 2 diet the day after surgery? Seems like everyone is on clear liquids except me. I actually havent tried eating anything beyond yogurt since coming home because I'm having a hard time with getting it in. I've only been able to drink 1 full bottle of water on 1 day. Today I'm trying to drink at least one full protein shake and 2 waters throughout the day Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app -
Tempted to consume less protein shakes.
allwet replied to Polymorphing's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
An unflavored protein powder added to something you are already eating would only add 60 or so more calories instead of 280 and still let you get daily protein. This next sentence will get me a lot of hate mail but some doctors are a little overboard with the protein number they tell you to hit. I dont know what target you are trying to reach but try to add some powder to oatmeal or a yogurt you were eating anyway and see if you can get daily calories down to a number that makes you feel more comfortable. You have to live with the choices and if they are making you uncomfortable you need to make adjustments to ensure you can do them forever. this is not a diet you do for a few months these are life long changes and you need to be all in mentally to keep it up. -
Try different protein powders. Whey, whey isolate, casien, egg, beef, soy. I find it incredibly difficult to imagine they're all an issue (especially if you can have milk and yogurt which contains both whey and casien so....) You could also try using things like Greek yogurt and cottage cheese as protein supplements. Trial and error is the best way

Hi guys, I’m really struggling to find a protein shake that doesn’t make me sick. I’m Australian and had opti-fast pre op which was fine but post op is a different story and gives me dumping. I would love a flavoured protein shake as I want to have it as a quick breakie. I’ve tried making my own with pb2 and it also made me sick but I think it was the banana and thickness. My nutritionist said it’s artificial sweeteners. It’s not lactose issue because milk and yogurt is fine. Does anyone have any high protein shakes they make that don’t contain protein powders?

I've been having no problems drinking my water, the broth and now yogurt. According to my schedule it says day 4 I can puree food, it must be the DR. Gonna call mine Monday and see what is real. Because they told me in hospital that if I can handle all I can have cottage cheese, ricotta cheese etc according to DR plan so if I were you call your DR I never threw up eithet Sent from my SM-G930P using BariatricPal mobile app

I had mine on 3/20 and I am still on liquids but now on graduated things like tomato soup and drinkable yogurt (more creamy low-fat soups). It is a little progress. I get to be on soft foods starting Tues so beyond excited. For me, it is hard but I would rather be safe and follow advice from my doctor than do what others may be doing. My doctor’s warning about my staple line was enough for me to follow his orders. A bit scary if you ask me.

The stuff that sings to me....gets re-homed. Just takes too much emotional energy to slip up and feel guilty. I'm tired of the food drama in my life. My food at home falls under two categories... 1. Healthy legal stuff. 2. Naughy stuff my husband likes that I find repugnant. Not saying I don't eat treats once in a blue moon. I do. But I make a point not to bring it into the house, or only bring it into the house for a special occasion with a very limited quantity. Lots of steps that make me THINK about the choice. Not saying I can't make that choice once in a while....but it's gonna be my idea and not the singing. LOL:) I want my food choices to be deliberate. (even the occasional splurge) There is one legal-ish item that I struggle with a little. Yasso greek yogurt bars. God, how I love them. LOL. They come in a box of four. I usually get them when I take my mom grocery shopping. I take two home (one for me, one for hubby), and leave two at her house. They have a hell of a time singing to me....from her house:)

I'm not sure I understand why you want to go back to soups and yogurt -- how will this diminish cravings for sweets? And congrats on 22#s in less than a month -- that is fantastic!!

Anyone else experiencing this? I was able to drink milk 3 days out of surgery and had no problems, but over the past week I've been feeling a little odd and yesterday and today I did a bit of a test - sure enough, dairy seems to be the trigger to causing a bloated, gassy feeling. Which is an absolute pain in the neck, since cheese sticks have been such a handy on-the-go workaround and pre-op I included a lot of dairy in my meals. From what I read this sometimes goes away the further post-op you get, but right now is a real wrench in my protein intake plan. I can switch sources, it's just that lentils and chicken salad aren't anywhere near as conveniently portable as cheese and yogurt. Damn. Any suggestions for good, non-dairy protein that can travel? I've found some 2oz tubs of hummus, but could do with a little variety.

I’m a little over 15 weeks out from bypass. I’m having- A full 11 oz premiere shake for breakfast finished between 4-5 am (30 protein) Mid morning snack around 930 - oikos triple zero yogurt (15 protein) Lunch around 12:30- 4 oz (or 1/2 c) of a lean meat like ground turkey, rotisserie chicken or sometimes egg salad with light mayo (egg salad is more like 1 egg versus oz or volume and if I do this then sometimes I eat two but over a couple of hours ) Mid afternoon snack (around 330) of a low fat cheese stick Dinner around 6 pm- tends to be more volume of-3/4 cup of things like ground turkey, thin chicken breast or fish with veggies At night 1-2 sugar free popsicles I haven’t had ANY food limitations around what I can eat . I get hiccups as a part of the tell I’m full but otherwise I can also eat quickly (typically takes 15-20 min ish??) and isn’t at all an issue to eat fast . The volume and oz aren’t an issue either- I literally need to “look” for the sign I’m full . All the above said— that scares the crap out of me because I feel like I could easily eat whatever I want - and quickly . I haven’t tried any “bad” foods yet so I am also assuming I’ll get sick from high sugar or fat so that fear is keeping me to eating at least healthier options . Worst thing eaten?.... went out to a restaurant and had limited options.

I use my fitness pal so I’m looking at my middle of January log here. Six weeks was when I was first cleared for salad and protein bars, so I see lots of salads on here lol. My days are very similar though. Same calorie range, same foods. Lots of chicken burgers, turkey meatballs, fish, cottage cheese, salads, yogurts, etc. The only food I tried so far I was really intolerant of was diced ham at six weeks. I’m not intolerant of any food I have tried since then. Quantity wise I’ve been able to eat two eggs since about 7 weeks out. I can drink a protein shake in a few minutes. I can eat 3 oz of say a chicken burger but 6 oz of soup or yogurt. I can eat one egg with two small turkey sausage patties. I can eat 4 oz of cottage cheese. If I try to eat whole pieces of chicken, I can eat only five or six small pieces no matter how well I chew it or what sauce it’s in. I have not eaten bread or pasta. I have eaten a few fork fulls of rice with some chicken curry I made. I am human, I did eat the top of a cupcake at Easter. Hope this helps lol. -

Four months post bypass for me. I aim for around 70-80 grams of protein daily, and under 50 grams carbs a day. My volume of food varies depending on what I eat. Breakfast I usually eat two eggs scrambled, one egg over medium with turkey sausage, or occasionally a packet of the weight control oatmeal. I am not a huge lunch eater I may eat a Greek yogurt for a snack, or have some turkey bites with some string cheese. If I’m not real hungry I’ve been having a slim fast protein shake with the caffeine in it. If I have lunch it’s usually a small salad, or chicken salad. For dinner I usually have 3-4 ounces of fish or chicken. If room I will eat some veggies. I like salmon and tilapia. I also make a lot of different chicken meals in my slow cooker that can be shredded as I tolerate that better than whole chicken still. In general I still tolerate soups, chili, and such very easily and I make these to take to work with me. Very dense protein is the most filling and I cannot eat much of that. A soup or chili that is meaty with some beans I can eat more of. I average 600 - 850 or so calories a day. -

Wow! Love the sound of your day! So about how much food by volume are you eating per meal? And will you please share your protein-bitchin recipe for those meatballs please? They sound fabotastic and I want to make some!! I also love the sound of your kale smoothie. I am excited to start doing mine again. I use spinach, and frozen blueberries with a scoop of Isopure Bananas and Cream PP--but any kind will do! I also love fiber one! I add slivered almonds to a mixture of 2% cottage cheese/Grk yogurt and frozen blueberries. So satisfying and keeps me full for hours!! Thanks for playing! I'm gonna check out Pinterest High Protein Meals for sure!! -
Yogurts and soups will NOT help you doll. They are slider foods and won't fill you up! They pass through your new anatomy very quickly. The denser and more solid the protein or veg. The more texture they have, the more filling it is and the more it stays with you. If you're hungry, eat more protein - dense protein. Try a hb egg and a cheese stick. Almost impossible to be hungry after that meal/snack at 1 month. You probably won't be able to finish it. If a hard boiled egg doesn't sound good to you? Then it's head hunger, rather than true hunger. Also, when hungry, try water loading. Sip your water quickly until it fills your tummy up. Then wait a minute or two until you can hear it draining, and then continue to take a sip-wait, sip-wait, sip-wait. Then reassess your hunger in 20 minutes. Works almost ALL the time for me! Plus it helps you get your fluids in. So many of us mistake thirst for hunger! Hope that helps!!
