Sounds better ! Personally I would ask for liquid Antibiotic, but that's up to you! If it's going down, and your fine with that....... That's your business. I would stay on Liquids for a few days, because your still hurting. Popsicles, yogurt, sugar free pudding, Etc... Even try small spoons of cottage cheese, maybe tomorrow. Just thinking about the throat hurting, a little cold might help that. Just don't chill your stomach. The Pepcid is chewable, so if you need it in the future ! Shirley.

I am 12 days post op and my doctor said I could try to ease soft foods in slowly. I tried a string cheese eating very slowly. I must have bitten off more than I should and I honestly thought I was going to die. I was in severe pain and burning up with nausea. I had to pull over while driving a half hour after and walk around until it passed. I am back to yogurt and shakes for awhile. It definitely made me not want to try anything more so soon.

Think milk is giving me an upset tummy
KDBaker replied to Poppygirl's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I had a similar issue for my first few months post-op. Yogurt was fine. Cottage cheese? Fine! Milk to mix a protein shake? Bad. So bad. I've taken to mixing my shakes with almond milk. I can have regular milk now without getting sick, but sometimes it doesn't sit right. -
Oh wow your four weeks out? Are you on the mushy food phase? I have been on the liquid diet for two weeks before surgery and I have been so emotionally hungry! Thanks for the kind words Yes, I'm on limited soft foods: cottage cheese, refried Beans, mushed veggies, oatmeal/cream of wheat, greek yogurt. I get to go to the next phase in 10 days. I was on a 2 week pre-packaged food diet pre-op. Don't worry, your hunger will disappear after surgery; at least, MINE did. Now I eat because I HAVE to...or because I WANT to.

I also experienced everything tasting really sweet. one thing that helped me was to mix plain Greek yogurt with my reduced carb yogurt. I wasn't able to drink the protein shakes that you mix because of the amount of air (bubbles) in them, Premier brand shakes are not so sweet. The only place I can find them is Sam's Club.

Hi! I am 10 days post gastric bypass surgery, but I am really scared because I am able to eat a lot of yogurt and I’m scared I stretched my pouch! Is this possible or am I spiraling?

Two week liquid diet
plumpypanda23 replied to hirgirl's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
With my liquid diet it is only a week but I am able to eat unlimited amounts of raw or steamed vegetables. I can have limited amounts of plain nonfat yogurt, unsweetened applesauce, v8 juice, and low fat milk. 3-4 protein shakes a day and as much broth, jello, and popsicles I want. Has anyone else had a pre op like this? I'm on day 2 and so far it's not too bad. Certainly not pleasant but tolerable. My surgery is June 2nd!!! -
Post op.... Taste in my mouth... Its it normal?
summerseeker replied to Lou51's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
I agree, the same has happened to me. My pre op is 0 carbs and only protein from low fat milk and low fat yogurt. Toothpaste is my best friend -
Wanting To Make My Own Protien Shakes
Cassie1/21 replied to chum's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
Hello... I use Pure Protein Vanilla Creme & mix in sugar free jello's or puddings to make different flavors..some of my favorites are s/f chocolate pudding with 2 tbsp of peanut butter or s/f pistachio pudding with almond flavoring added to 12 oz of water, some ice and 1 scoop of the protein powder...Have tried many other combinations like s/f orange jello (creamsicle), s/f lemon pudding...this morning I tried s/f chocolate pudding with a packet of chocolate raspberry truffle instant coffee and it was really good...you can also add greek yogurt to boost protein from 25g to 39g...Prior to my nutrition appointment I always used Atkins but I found this to be much less $ and more tasty and doesn't leave the after taste. -
5/20 sleeve what are you eating?
Moxie replied to MariaL1981's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Soup, shakes (been doing plain powder or diluting with almond milk last couple of days as the artificial sweetener taste is getting to me). Experimented with HCG chili recipe and went down well, mashed potatoes, I did cream of wheat and it was too filling, Greek yogurt mixed with soup mix for something savory. Not proud but was out and had some grilled shrimp chewed really well. Out of everything I've had, the one thing that made me feel like I was going to barf was sugar free fat free pudding. You'd think that would be the least of my issues. I used to crave sweets but now craving meat and seafood although surgery day I told my bf I wanted a steak before I got too loopy. Sleeved 5/20. -
This is what is on the menu for me for day 2 thru 7 Start full liquid items slowly as tolerated: Skim milk v-8 juice low fat blenderized. strained Soups fat-free, sugar free yogurt plain without fruit fat free sugar free pudding thinned cream of wheat or oatmeal Protein powder or non fat dry milk may be added to soups and cereals to meet protein needs It depends on your doctor

Sleeved Veterans- Need your input.
O.T.R. sleever replied to sstark1285's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Il love that you are putting good carbs into your diet. So many people make the mistake of grouping all carbs into the bad category. I also really like the fact that you are avoiding white carbs. Great choice in using a super high quality Protein like the nectar line. One thing I'd like to address is the combination of Greek yogurt & Protein Powder. 1cup of Greek yogurt is about 25g protein(depending on brand), and a scoop of Nectar is 23g. Totaling up to 48g of protein. Unfortunately this is considerably more than your body can utilize in one sitting. The most your body can utilize at one time is 27g (many people round that out to 30). I'd really like to see that 48g split into 2 servings so that you can receive full benefit from what you consume. Great planning & great tracking. Enjoy the journey, you deserve it. -
How do u get ur protein?
Forsythia replied to culmer's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I put a scoop of vanilla body fortress in my morning coffee, then get my remaining protein via greek yogurt, cheese, and meat. If there is room left in the caloric tank I add in fruits and veggies. Or some kind of small indulgence like chocolate. -
Does everyone meet their protein goal every day?

Thanks! Yogurt is actually something I CAN do without issues! Soup too! So frustrated with the meat issues....just forms a slimy coating around it and all comes right back up. -

Liquid and Food - timing issues
Cia2020 replied to AlwaysCruising's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My program is no fluids 10 minutes before meals and 30 minutes after and I can definitely tell if I drink too soon. It hurts and backs up on me. However, during the liquid stage I didn't have "meals" per se but fluid goals to meet, so I drank whatever went down that got me to my goals. Within 6 hours of surgery I could drink 1 ounce of protein fluid and 1 ounce of water, at the same time, every 15 minutes. I always took my meds with protein fluids to "coat" my stomach. Now in purees (started 2 weeks out), I follow 3 meals and 2 snacks with water all day between. Protein shake for breakfast and a lot of cottage cheese, greek yogurt, hummus, eggs, and pureed meats and pureed steamed veggies. I can eat way more volume than predicted in a sitting, though, and can drink 20 ounces of water in 45 minutes. I drink 70 to 90 ounces of water a day and get around 80 grams of protein. I have atypical GERD where it only flares with my asthma, but also mild gastritis so I'm on omeprazole for 3 months. I feel "hungry" a lot but often find that I am actually thirsty (or its head hunger and habit/boredom). I also bought some antacid chews and find 1-2 of those a day really cut down on the sharp feeling in my stomach. My doc says that the hunger and larger volume per meal will steadily decrease the more I move away from puree to soft to regular as solid food is more filling per volume. I've had a breakfast shake for years, so I will keep that to help with my protein goal but really hope to stop wanting to eat because I feel hungry soon. Plus it will be easier to make fewer separate meals when cooking for the family. -
Is it normal to vomit sometimes?
hubbachubba replied to a_jap21's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have been sick 3 or 4 times in 5 weeks. I am not eating anything bad, I have mashed vegies one of the days. I think that I ate them to fast, thats all I can put it down to. 5 weeks out and I am doing two Opti a day and frozen yogurt ice block for dinner. My Doc just said to eat slow and watch the amount. -
Protein SHakes vs. Cottage Cheese
nurse7263 posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm having a huge time trying to stomach the Protein drinks. My doctor told me that the big thing this month is to NOT throw up, and I haven't, but every time I try to drink a Protein shake, I gag. I am currently on full liquids (including yogurt, pudding and cottage cheese) and I was wondering if cottage cheese could be an equivalent. My nutritionist wanted about 100-150 cals with 15-20 grams of protein with each shake. The cottage cheese is 120 cals per 1/2 cup with 13 grams of protein, and as long as I chew, chew, chew it doesn't make me sick to eat a half a cup. What do you other bandsters think? I just don't want to throw up and disloge my band! -
What does restriction feel like?
emjay replied to mom2girls's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Sure Mandy - Typically in the morning I just have a Protein shake with skim milk, and add a capsule of Biotin and 2 tbsp of Benefiber. It usually takes me about 2-2 1/2 hours to drink this and I'm usually not hungry at lunch, but I eat anyway to keep somewhat of a schedule. Lunch usually consists of maybe an egg & cheese omelet, or maybe shredded beef and cottage cheese or banana, or if I don't have alot of time - a Healthy Choice or Lean Cuisine meal. Sometimes it's smoked turkey or chicken or ham and cheese on high fiber toast. In the afternoon I have either a yogurt with homemade granola (Kashi Go Lean Cereal, choc chips, dry-roasted peanuts, toasted pecans, raisins, Peanut Butter chips), or a bag of 5 Factor chips (10 grams of protein, 5 g of fiber, 130 calories) or fruit. For dinner I like to have some sort of baked fish (cod, perch, tilapia) and cottage cheese, or a baked potato. Sometimes chicken, sometimes hamburger, but usually a healthy dose of protein. I really frankly suck at eating vegetables and have my whole life. Some people have trouble with things like broccoli or cauliflower - fibrous vegetables. I get uncomfortable with hard apples, pineapple, and harder fruits. It's not that I can't eat them, it's just easier if they are dried, or grilled, or roasted to either make them crunchy or soft. But before you think I follow a really good diet, just know that I've been caught eating pizza rolls and potato chips for supper too! (Hubby made that and FYI - pizza rolls did not go down well). But I try to limit my treats to only a couple of times a week or just a few bites. -

Does everyone meet their protein goal every day?
Graciesmom04 replied to downsizingdiva's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Okay, this morning I did the protein shake, with milk, yogurt and my Injury powder. Got 1/4 of the way done and my IBS hit me out of the blue. I haven't had an issue like that since having surgery. I can do each of these things separately with no issues, but am assuming it's the combination of everything together that my body rejects. -
Does everyone meet their protein goal every day?
BLERDgirl replied to downsizingdiva's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
it took me a good 2 weeks to build up to getting 60 grams of protein but now I get over 70 most days. As for fluids what I started doing was adding loads of ice and a tiny bit of water with my protein shakes. I then just sipped all day. It was a good way to get both protein and fluids in one shot. At nearly 6 mths out I still start most days with a protein shake. I use FAGE 0% greek yogurt which is 23 gms of protein per cup, add a scoop of protein powder (Isopure unflavored) which is 26gms per scoop plus any flavorings I want. My protein shakes usually are between 30 - 40 gms of protein. Te rest I get from food. If I'm a little low then dinner is usually a cup of soup with a scoop of Isopure mixed in. -
Will see how it goes and report back. I'm anxious for some reason, to the point of getting heartburn. They said expect this first appt to be 2 1/2-3 hrs. I've done WW off and on for years...know how to track, now just need to learn how to change what I'm eating to be in-line with bariatric surgery. It will be eye opening in sure, as like many people out there, even eating healthy includes carbs like bread, fruit and yogurt. Wish me luck! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

banded one week - no restriction
Texassippi replied to Texassippi's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Saraincincy ~ Dr. R. Walker Byars in Oxford, MS did my surgery. Everything has been super easy with recovery. That's why I was concerned about the liquids going through so easy, maybe too easy! I'm only allowed to have clear liquids and Protein shakes for two weeks. Then I get what I think is referred to as full liquids for two week: creamy soups, puddings, yogurts, etc. -
yeah my trainer kept making fun of it, he couldnt even get the name right-- kept calling it pill-yogurt? haha but hes this enormously buff guy that could pick me up with one arm, so i feel like even pilates is too easy for him. :thumbdown:
