Not one issue. I’m less than 3 weeks out. No pain. Never vomited. I can drink normally now. I’ve eaten chicken, pork, ground beef, steak, and green beans. No problems at all. I’m hungry now every 3-4 hours. Eat almost a whole egg, or yogurt , tiny 2 Oz serving of protein and 6 green beans and I’m good for 3+ hours. I’m down 20lbs:)

Cheating / random life questions
GreenTealael replied to GreenTealael's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
OK its going to depend totally on your plan, but in full liquids I was allowed to have yogurt and thinned out cream of wheat. Did you receive a booklet or any literature about the diet? -
You know the difference between someone just about the start pre-op and someone in the middle? I am still excited!!! Tonight is the final of my "last meals": a big 'ole prime strip steak, a sweet potato and a martini. My pre-op diet is easy compared to others (except for @ahnormandeau!!): 3 meals with 4 oz. lean protein & veges, 1 snack with nuts and veges, and up to 3 fruits and/or yogurts. So... pretty easy, right? I saw my surgeon's PA for my pre-op consult, and evidently my liver is on the smallish size (which is remarkable considering my wine consumption!)

Almonds, cheese, homemade cheese crisps or parm crisps (easy recipe, just google it). You can do a homemade guacamole dip, homemade yogurt/spinach dip or homemade hummus to dip the cheese crisps in...yum! Also, keep cut up fresh veggies on hand such as baby carrots, snap peas, red peppers, cucumbers...great by themselves or in dips. Nice, fresh, crunchy snacks that are good for you if you are already caught up on your protein for the day. The cheese crisps, of course, have some protein. Also, greek, lower carb-low sugar yogurt. Plain yogurt with stevia, throw in some almonds or a few blueberries..delicious! I second the deviled eggs. Some good suggestions from others here.

I tried a few flavors and didn’t like the texture or the after taste. But the Yasso frozen Greek yogurt is awesome. I have one occasionally and it’s the closest thing I’ve found to real ice cream plus it’s got protein. HW: 282.2 lbs SW: 256.4 lbs CW: 196.6

My favorite go to is Greek yogurt mixed with powdered peanut butter and protein powder (I prefer chocolate but good with vanilla or banana flavour). I also like to sometimes add cinnamon. Then eat as a pudding or a dip for fruit like apples. Yum!! Sent from my SM-G900W8 using BariatricPal mobile app

First time buying this. Anyone else trying or tried it? It appears to be same amount of carbs and Protein as regular yogurt... So it seems harmless

I doubt you're actually hungry but suffering from head hunger. My surgery was the 15th and all I've been able to think about is eating a sandwich (stupid Subway commercials). My surgeon said I could eat yogurt, which I've enjoyed because it's not too sweet, but having strained soup has saved me. Broccoli cheese and tomato basil. I wanted the salt and broth wasn't doing it. Also, once I started feeling better more of the foods I could eat started sounding and tasting better. Good luck and it will just be a few more days before you get to pureed food!

This is CRAZY!!! I have a protein shake with 30 grams protein and 1cup milk (unjury chocolate). Then I have an oikos yogurt. Then Protein shake (I go with vanilla this time) then oikos yougurt. Then Protein shake. I do have the unjury chicken soup protein powder, but I haven't used that yet. Sent from my SM-N950U using BariatricPal mobile app

Out With the Old--In With the New!
Miss Topaz replied to FluffyChix's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Yogurt soup sounds good! I'm going to have to look for walden farms products here. I remember seeing them back in MD. Good for you on the poopin keep up with the benefiber you've started. I had no problems at all, but started soft foods this week and now - wham - issues. Doing benefiber today but may have to pick up something else tomorrow (or tonight!) to get things moving. -
I had my sleeve done on 2/14 and I’m supposed to be eating yogurt and protein drinks only until Wednesday then I can go to puréed foods. Yeah no...I’ve been cheating so bad and I mean things I should not be eating. Today I ate a 3 little Reece’s Eggs and 3 little KitKats and French fries from McDonald’s! I’ve been eating crackers everyday. What am I doing? I don’t even know how my poor stomach is handling what I’m doing to it...I don’t know what to do? I’m losing the head hunger battle already? Will I ever be successful? Should I go to therapy? I feel like I see food everywhere around me....it’s on tv and I feel like my family is always eating! I feel like if I was back at work I could do better because I’m busy and at home I’m just lazy...sitting around watching tv or playing on my phone. I feel depressed and not motivated to do anything. I should be cleaning or doing school work. I just suck!

One year post op, hungry all the time!
Guest replied to Ghada's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I am so glad I came across this. It was a year on January 10th, and I cannot believe how hungry I get. It doesn't matter what I eat, I am easily full (especially if meat or chicken) and then an hour later I am starving. I know it is not acid/gas any of those things, hunger pangs. I will eat a yogurt, or some form of protein or veggies and protein, and still an hour or an hour and a half hungry. I hated this feeling as well. Today it has been a hard day dealing with this. -
Any March 2018 Sleevers?
FloridaGal1976 replied to NelliSleeve's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
That's all your having? Just 3 shakes and 2 yogurts? That doesn't sound like it's enough. I get 5 shakes, at 3 hour intervals. I was eating SF jello (I've never liked jello) but I'm bored with it. I've also been relying on broth. Probably more than I should but it's better than cheating with food. I have 2 bouillon cubes a day (only supposed to have 1, as needed). Well damn it I need it every day! I can also have SF popsicles (gross). Just keep your eyes on the prize! I'm on day 9. Over halfway there. The finish line is on sight!!!

February Surgery Buddies!
FluffyChix replied to Lyds85's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hugs and prayers to all who've had surgery already. I pray you are feeling better each day and able to accomplish post-surg goals with ease!! To all who are still yet to come in February! Remember the liquid diet from hell is only temporary and we can endure anything for 2 weeks! I can attest that once you're on the other side, the liquid protein phase is a cinch to undertake. No hunger, easy satiety with the liquids, no feeling of deprivation or food angst! It's hard to imagine such a severe about face once post-surgery but it's true!! I'm doing great. It's now 4 days post and I'm up walking, drinking normally, yesterday got in 98oz of liquids including proteins. This morning had thinned down yogurt for brekky and did great. Now having protein iced tea and loving it. So all is well. Have already walked 2 times today and will do another stint here after lunch. Naps are my friend! Oh how I love mah naps! Cheers everyone!! -
February Surgery Buddies!
JazmaniaRNY replied to Lyds85's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thanks... they were working fine. Just yesterday I could not swallow it. And my doctor says anything bigger than a dime size is to big to swallow so I made sure to get tiny pills. It just freaked me out because it wouldn’t go down almost like I had something blocking it and came right back up. Hurt so bad. I will try and crush it to go with my yogurt. -
New Premier Protein flavor!!!!
FluffyChix replied to Maggie1955's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
LOL, it's so funny how everyone is unique! I'm still loving my PP RTD drinks post surgery! I adore them in my coffee, and also mixed in Greek yogurt! YUM! Can't wait to try the peaches and cream!!! Thanks for the heads up. -
Out With the Old--In With the New!
FluffyChix replied to FluffyChix's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Saturday 2.24.18 Update (4 days post-surgery) 224.2lbs I feel really great! The only pain meds I'm taking are the 30day prescription for gabapentin which heals the nerves, and liquid sugar free tylenol. Fluids go down so easily! I'm able to take in 8oz per hour without issues (that includes protein drinks). I'm still enjoying the same protein drinks as pre-surgery without a sweet aversion, but I think it's because I like to mix it up with different liquids to extend it? Dunno! Last night I had a touch of fever, 99.2 (not a real fever at all), but I think it was enough to set off some nausea. So I just rested in my recliner with a cold cloth to my throat and things got better quickly! I woke up this morning and took my meds and pain is great and no nausea or fever! So I dodged a bullet there! Also, taking my pills hasn't been an issue either, they go down quietly and know to stay down! LOL! I'm already cooking for Mr. F. and am having no issues with yearnings or cravings! I made him a bacon egg cheese low carb breakfast taco this morning and I was like, "Meh! It looks dynamo, but I'm looking forward to my yogurt soup! Very surreal! I'm getting my walking in as planned, and it's just fine. I'm poopin' just fine thanks to MOM. The GasX strips are golden! I love them and they really work. I'm going to be adding my vitamins today. Hope that doesn't tip the balance of fine! So far, "no regerts"! This morning I'm having my first thinned down Greek yogurt, aka yogurt soup! It's divine! Here's the recipe: Blueberry Yogurt Serves 1 - 2 (about 1/2 cup volume) 3oz (85g) Greek fat free plain yogurt (HEB) 1floz (28g) Premier Protein vanilla RTD 1floz (28g) Walden Farms blueberry syrup 1tsp (1.75g) benefiber 3 drops liquid vanilla stevia Mix it all together and enjoy!

I can't believe I ate that
FluffyChix replied to Nhope's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Hahaha! Love experimenting! I'm trying benefiber in my yogurt this morning! I know Miralax is next sometime today--probably in my V8! -
February bypass buddies?
JazmaniaRNY replied to RunningLibrarian's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
Milk of Magnesia works miracles just make sure you drink some water afterwards get it going.... I will say that decaf has been helping me get going to with protein premier milk mixed in. I do Miralax everyday 4oz water with the recommended dosage then if I do not go by day 3 I use MOM. It gets uncomfortable for sure. I take MOM at night and usually wake up and have to go sometime in the morning. If you do not want to use MOM, try some Greek yogurt (helped me too). I was RNYed 2/7 so I feel you. -
I left the hospital on 2/15 weighing 233 (which was just a little higher that right before surgery) but I am now at 217. I’ve weighed 217 for the past 2 days and kinda started freaking out but I should not get on the scale everyday, but it’s extremely hard not to. I had my post op visit yesterday and he want me to lose 25 pounds by the next time I see him which is next month 😳! Obviously that would be amazing but I’m just hoping I can do it. I went back to the gym today and did the elliptical for about 30 minutes and I just felt really out of shape and weak. As far as eating goes I’m mostly just doing creamed soups, yogurt and maybe a little cream of wheat and my protein shakes. Getting about 400-550 calories/day.Drinking water more normally now—no more little baby sips, which makes getting it all down easier. Never really hungry so that’s a plus. How are you doing?

Protein Bars/Shakes/Etc That Aren't Nasty?
KatFight replied to AstroCat's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I like EAS Advant Edge vanilla protein powder. It can be mixed with frozen berries, peanut butter powder, yogurt, etc for additional flavors. I haven’t tried it in this brand of powder protein but, in the past, a I would add some sugar-free Jello gelatin powder for different flavors. I liked cherry the best. -
Floridagal1976 that's AWESOME!! I'm day 4. Yesterday was weird. At "lunch," my shake made me a little sick to my stomach. I'm feel like I was just hangry the first two days, now my tummy just feels blah. I'm having a protein shake 3 times a day and 2 yogurts. Any suggestions on substitution?

Pureed food suggestions?
mylighthouse replied to r.chapanar@gamil.com's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Cottage cheese, refried beans with melted cheese on top, mashed sweet potatoes, mashed (pureed) carrots, yogurt (watch sugar and carb content). I was allowed to have pureed tuna or chicken, I mixed it with a little mayo, or you can mix it with plain greek yogurt and season it up. Hummus is good, especially if you make it homemade. @orionburn great suggestion of the ricotta bake and eggface's site. I did the ricotta bake too, and yes, it was delicious! Also, during the pureed stage, I mixed in a little Isopure or Unjury brands of unflavored protein powder to get my protein. You can mix it into refried beans, cottage cheese, yogurt, etc. -
Help me please :( GERD
mylighthouse replied to Helpme95's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am 15 months post sleeve. I have been having trouble with eating anything besides some soups, yogurt, protein shakes, things like that. Dealing with nausea off and on during day, some vomiting. I have actually had nausea since the surgery. Had an endoscopy when I was in the hospital a few weeks ago, they found erosions. I have been taking Protonix since surgery. Watch yourself with the vomiting, be sure to amp up your fluid intake. Dehydration led to my hospitilization. You don't want that. Powerade Zero is good....that and plenty of water! I have a follow up in March, might have to get in sooner... worried that a revision to bypass might be in my future. Be sure and let your doc know everything that is going on and the severity of your situation. I hope you find an answer and that you feel better soon. -
I’m 4 weeks post surgery and I’m still not up to 2 oz per meal. If I eat over 1 oz (of solid food) it hurts. I feel like I have to throw up and my mid section hurts. Sitting, standing it’s just uncomfortable. Eating yogurt and other super soft foods is ok but if I attempt anything remotely solid it feels like it gets stuck. I have a doc appointment in two weeks but didn’t know if I should get in sooner? Anyone else experience this?
