I have over a week left on the purée diet then 2 weeks on soft. I’m so sick of it. I’ve had refried beans, the ricotta bake, mashed potatoes, cream of wheat, yogurt, puréed chili, tuna salad, smoothies, and everything from the liquid diet. Anyone have any new ideas for another week of purees? Lap band 10/2007 revised to RNY 12/22/2017 HW 270 SW 263 CW 253

7 days post op and i am kicked while down
brendamcfarlane14 replied to tinamichele's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
I am 6 days post op and have been successful with the Pure Protein brand of protein shakes. Costco carries them in vanilla and chocolate and has caramel recently too. I also discovered the banana cream flavor (at the grocery store) which was pretty good. (Chocolate is actually my favorite and tastes like chocolate milk.) Each serving for me (4oz) is 10 g of protein so it hasn’t been too bad getting my recommended amount. I agree that adding the unflavored whey with broth was not a positive experience. I also found a recipe today for a fruit smoothie which was about 8 g of protein for 4 oz. I could have upped the protein if I had used yogurt, but wanted something different: 1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk ½ banana ½ cup frozen berries 1 scoop whey protein powder Blend and strain. -
I've tried everything even mixing Greek yogurt. It just doesn't stay. Sent from my 5056N using BariatricPal mobile app

Sample of what I do, Greek yogurt (14-15g of protein) for breakfast. 2-3 ounces of tuna or chunk canned chicken mixed with very little mayo for lunch. 2-3 ounces of another meat (protein) for dinner. As a 4th meal I have another Greek yogurt. In between I have milk/ protein shake 2 times a day. Key is to get in a lot of protein.

Puree stage question
GassyGurl replied to Real California April's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
On our plan, we were allowed to choose soft foods and chew till puree. But no veggies, fruits, or red meat. Only canned or ground turkey, chicken or pork. Yogurts, ricotta, eggs and we could add beans after 2 weeks. Sent from my XT1254 using BariatricPal mobile app -
What are you eating now? Also on a budget but since I don't eat a lot it's quality over quantity. Protein shakes for me are convienant with a price, but I can't drink the powder kind. I eat tuna pouches and eggs a good bit, yogurt. Fruit at times. I have found if I stick to healthy planned food I get full and stay full. Unhealthy snacks like crackers I could eat around my pouch if I wanted to. [emoji20] I'm 15 months post op tomorrow. Not where I want to be yet but like you gained about 5 lbs now loosing again. I had a coffee problem, I still do only now it's not loaded with as much bad stuff. Sent from my 5056N using BariatricPal mobile app

Post-breakfast fatigue question
FluffyChix replied to Biddy zz 🏳️🌈's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
Yay! Glad you had a better result!! I have to mix my yogurt with cottage cheese to reduce how quickly it goes in. I have about an ounce of yogurt, and the rest is 2% cottage cheese. That way I feel like I'm getting some probiotic advantage while eating the cottage cheese! -
Post Weight Loss Surgery Protein Rules
DelicateSleeve posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hello Everyone and Happy New Years!!! So I recently had the Sleeve done and things are going well, except I cannot tolerate any dairy products. ANY AT ALL. I am struggling to get the required amount of protein in. I’ve tried shakes, yogurts, silke yogurt and protien powders. I do not tolerate sweet tastes wel either. I need your help!!! Any suggestions on protein powders that are dairy free and sleeve friendly that are really tasteless. Please share any recommendations. Today my protein intake should increase and I have not even met he previous intake. HELP. THANKS IN ADVANCE. -
Sleeved 12/27 - Drinking fine? Restriction?? Worried!!
JukeboxJess replied to Lufifi's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I thought it was just me! Lol! I had no problems with liquids, and started with yogurt a few days early... I haven't had any discomfort either, really, except once when I downed broth too quickly. Sent from my Pixel using BariatricPal mobile app -
Hi all, Thought I'd say hi. Sleeved on 12/18, so I'm on phase 2. I'm scared to introduce too much too quickly. So far, just tried yogurt, applesauce, and SF pudding. Finally got some unflavored protein powder, too! Anyone try it with mashed potatoes? Also, sorry if this is TMI, but I've had nothing but loose stools for the last week or so (after being constipated at first, go figure!) Other than that, I've felt good!

Sleeved 12/27 - Drinking fine? Restriction?? Worried!!
Lufifi posted a topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
5 days out now and I can drink liquids fine. Maybe not fast but I can drink what I need to. My surgeon said I was healing so well that he thought purees would be ok on Friday... only 3 days post op. I didn't. I went to regular liquids from clear and I did eat 2.5 oz of yogurt with protein powder but let it pretty much melt in my mouth. I ate a cup of soup (watered down cream of chicken)... really runny... and i'm not really feeling much of a restriction. I'm scared something's wrong! I'm not hungry but I would have thought that I would be like everyone else and struggle to hit my protein and water goals. I'm probably overreacting as and what i'm consuming is all liquid, my lack of restriction might be normal. Anyone have thoughts? -

Yeah, I had to double check too. I figured he was saying he was having 3.5oz of yogurt=100g. Good times! -
Post-breakfast fatigue question
JohnnyCakes replied to Biddy zz 🏳️🌈's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
100 GRAMS OF PROTEIN in one yogurt session?!?! are you sure that’s accurate? if so, stop that. 40g is about the most the body can efficiently digest/utilize at once. that is just waaaaay too much protein (and calories) at once. switch your coffee to regular, eat about 40g worth of protein max, and get more sleep. you’ll feel better immediately.. -
Post-breakfast fatigue question
FluffyChix replied to Biddy zz 🏳️🌈's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
Do you have a glucometer? My guess is that your 100g of yogurt is making a blood sugar spike, then a post prandial drop in bg. A spike after meals is a sign of high blood sugar which then causes sleepiness/fatigue? -
Eating TOO LITTLE can cause a weight loss stall!
Lainey H replied to Creekimp13's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
@Creekimp13 How quickly can you drink water? I'm doing 8oz in about an hour. Sometimes a little less time but then I start belching or hiccups. And do you do one protein shake a day in addition to decaf coffee? I just ordered decaf so that's a great idea. I could not get that many snacks and meals because would be off on my 64 oz. I do the one shake with milk and the other 7 glasses in water or tea and three meals. The issue for me is waiting 30 min before and 30 min after for the 3 meals and not being able to drink liquids quickly. Just not enough hours in a day... God forbid I take a nap - lol. Huge improvement over a few weeks ago when nut wanted me to do 4 oz / hour. They don't want me doing more than 1 shake so try hard to concentrate on foods with higher protein like yogurt and fish. Sashimi is prob my best meal so far. Can eat almost 4 oz.. Greek yogurt is an easy way to get 15g. Thanks for any tips. I guess I shouldn't worry too much right now b/c I haven't hit any stalls but would like to get closer to 800-1000 so any tips would help. -
Going back to work and eating schedule for pureed food.
TX_KB replied to TeresaBlount's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
A thermos that keeps food warm or cold should help, along with an insulated lunch kit. Refried beans, tuna “salad” made with tuna and light mayo/yogurt and puréed, soups, shakes, yogurt, cottage cheese, ricotta cheese bake Lap band 10/2007 revised to RNY 12/22/2017 HW 270 SW 263 CW 253 -

Yogurt? Kept in a chiller. Or shakes -
Had surgery on Dec 27th. Every day does get easier. My main issue now is one incision that still hurts when getting up and down or turning. I have found that the flavorless protein like genepro is so much easier then trying to get the protein shakes down. Can mix with anything from water, to soup, to yogurt. I am lucky no nausea or vomiting. Gas pain was horrible but it is better now. I am experiencing very low energy levels I guess body just adjusting to new diet and healing. Ready to be healed and start losing weight.

I haven’t really had a backslide. I just still don’t really really like doing anything. My surgery was on 12/26 and today I’ve had 4 oz of yogurt, 4 oz of protein shake, 32 oz of water, and 1 sugar free popsicle. I’m following the menu my nutritionist gave me pretty much. I still need to drink more water, eat dinner, and have one more snack.

I definitely understand I went in Tuesday and was released Thursday... I wasn't getting enough liquids in and felt horrible.... I'm only getting 16.9oz of water in a day and some popsicles.... I hate protein shakes now and yogurt Sent from my VS990 using BariatricPal mobile app

Hey guys. My surgery date was 12/26. Yesterday I felt pretty good. Discomfort in my stomach off and on, but had energy and was ok. My doc says each day is supposed to get better. But today I feel awful. A little dizzy, get out of breath just walking to the kitchen, heart rate goes up 30 beats just from sitting up, and generally tired. I’ve stuck to the liquid diet, but like I said in a previous post, I don’t get clear signals when I’ve eaten too much. I try to drink 3 protein shakes, one 6oz yogurt and 64oz water a day because that’s what my nutritionist said to do. But when I read your posts and see how little others are eating, I worry I’m overdoing it. My symptoms fit somewhat with a leak and I’m really scared that I’m messing things up. Why would I feel so much worse today than yesterday? Has anyone else experienced a backslide like this?

Am I the only one who doesn't like Greek yogurt? Like at all? Seems like this is going to be a problem, but I really can't tolerate it...
-
Ive been making a variety of soups like potato cheddar and carrot then straining them it helps a lot to mix it up. Also ive been eating the oikos greek yogurt in different flavours and that helps keep things from getting boring. Ive also made homemade sugar free popcicles with mio and stuff and they are fantastic. Sent from my SM-G920W8 using BariatricPal mobile app

What does hunger feel like
Creekimp13 replied to sabraham2805's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I got hungry...REALLY hungry... a couple of days after surgery. Maybe because I never had nausea, and had little pain. Maybe because I continued to walk 5-7 miles a day. But I was hungry. Tummy wasn't growling, but I felt that kinda foggy low blood sugar feeling and like I was uncomfortable, needing fuel. Craved food. Healthy food. But it was pretty clear my gas tank was empty. I still get hungry. But now, I eat half a thing of yogurt, or a half a cup of something nutrious, a little handful of nuts or cheese cubes...and I feel pretty content for 3-4 hours. I do get my 1000 calories in each day, but sometimes that means drinking a lot of decaf with a ton of protein drink in it. LOL. I do eat complex carbs with my proteins, and fruits without skins.
