I was sleeved july 11. I've lost 35 lbs. I have been in a stall for a few weeks but am trying to stay positive. I'm working out 5-6 times a week. It's amazing how much easier it is without those extra 35 lbs!! My daily Breakfast is a Protein shake. I just can't get my protein in otherwise. I eat a lot of chicken breast but am trying all sorts of new recipes to make sure I don't get bored. Snacks are usually greek yogurt. Tuna is a go to for me as well. 0 My Multivitamin makes me feel nauseous for about 15 minutes afterward. Not fun but it's a small price to pay.

Ok, I did it. I gave in. I got some frozen yogurt, about three ounces. It was satisfying and tasty, no ill effects. In the future maybe a sugar free fudge Popsicle would work- it really wasn't that much better! But I had built it up in my mind... And nothing else would do. Thanks for your thoughts!

Going up north to a rustic cabin please help

Why are you tempting yourself by going off of your plan? This change you've committed to won't take place by itself. If you're taking a cooler pack tuna, cottage cheese, yogurt, ricotta,oatmeal, protein shakes pre-made, milk etc. You CAN live your life, just don't mess with a good thing, you were given a 2nd chance to be healthy, embrace it!! -
10 months out, first official plateau...
JamieLogical replied to AMDRN's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
How much Protein are you getting? Does MFP show you a pie chart of where your calories are coming from between protein fat and carbs? If so, what are the average percentages? Are you getting in all of your Water? My best guess is that, if you just started going to the gym two months ago, your body is right now trying to adapt to the increased level of activity. Most people experience a slow down in weight loss when they take up exercise. Keep up your activity level and maybe try introducing more high protein Snacks to curb hunger. When I started exercising intensely around 4 months post-op, I had to add a morning snack to my regime (a reduced fat cheese stick), because I was getting hungry between Breakfast and lunch. I also added a little granola to my afternoon greek yogurt, so the little bit of extra carbs would help fuel my late afternoon workouts.- 1 reply

Had My Surgery Tuesday August 25th
SafetyKate replied to DrewzWife's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Sleeved on the 25th. Bad nausea the first day but otherwise manageable. Don't know how anyone gets all the protein in. I've been getting the fluid in fine but seriously struggling with the protein. Ate something other than isopure and protein broth today. Tried Greek yogurt For breakfast - yum but can't eat much. Had high protein very liquid oatmeal for dinner with flax milk - tasty but incredibly filling. No real gas till now - guess real food equals real gas. -
Well here goes nothin!
LynnMarie88 replied to Amanda Nicole Hosaflook's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I am 2 days post op. Going home today. I was really nervous before, but it's over before you know it. So far everything is going great. I'm already switched to oxycodone in pill form for pain. It's not unbearable pain. My worst would be a 4, but most of the time 2-3. Really just a little stiff, but getting up and walking around makes me feel a lot better. Today I am being moved to stage 3 diet, so I can have full liquids and really soft food like yogurt. -

@@ppressey24 @@Suaniya i have tried premier protein! the problem is though my doctor only wants me to have 2 "milk" servings a day and that is skim milk no other milk by the way and besides having 4 Protein shakes a day which i need i am allowed 2 light yogurts and i know Premier Protein says made with milk so thats why i bought my own to be able to mix with Water it says after mixing 2 of your protein shakes with milk you are not allowed any more milk for the rest of the day so i do need to clarify on that but that is why like i said before i went and bought ones that you personally mix so i can mix with water... this is my exact diet plan am-protien drink and 1 cup of skim milk or light yogurt mid morning- Fiber supplement noon- Protein Drink, fiber supplement afternoon-1 cup raw vegtables dinner-protein drink and fiber supplement evening-protein drink and 1 cup of skim milk or light yogurt and i need to get 100 ounces a day in which include the diet plan and then am allowed water, crystal lights, decaf coffee and tea, broth, sugar free Jello and popsicles so thats why I'm not doing premier protein shakes, this is for my pre op to shrink my liver and i know every doctor has their own kinda way but i deff wanna follow what my doctor says so if he says only 2 servings of milk thats what i gotta do! I'm not worried about protein after i know i can use premier protein and any protein probably by then but this is for the pre op so even the protein i can use is strick -
Ooooh I have a frozen yogurt place by me. We went there today, it's called 'yo luv it' it's totally non fat and about 13 grams of sugar for small cup. I got a small cup, no toppings ( that's where u go from good to bad!) and I only ate half. So half for tomorrow. It's my go to treat every few weeks or so. Only eating half at a time at only 6-7 grams of sugar is good

How often is it okay to eat?
theother_onefoot replied to theother_onefoot's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
@@_Kate_ - I'm still allowed to drink Protein drinks, yes, though the NUT does want me weaned off of them when I'm able to eat actual food since she explained drinking the shakes despite their high protein won't actually continue to register in your brain that you've eaten. Actually being able to still get through a shake without feeling nauseous is a totally different matter.. And I've also been told the premier shakes don't count towards my fluids because they aren't a clear liquid. As opposed to trying one of the Isopure drinks. @@Folly - So as I'm able to eat more, I'll be able to go longer without getting hungry. Makes sense! Thanks! @ - My body feels like it's physically starting to reject the Protein Shakes and smoothies I make... I can't drink them without feeling ill now. So I drink my Water and stick to soft foods and yogurt. @@Sharon1964 - I could understand doing it this way when I can eat more, but I've figured out my body's difference between head and real hunger and right now I'm feeling real hunger every two hours. Though I do hope to get to this eating pattern when I'm able. Thank you! @@AngelaWilliamsMD - I'm glad I'm not alone in this. I'm still eating less than 500 calories a day even with high protein micro-meals, and I know I'm at that phase where my body may be going through a stall and/or is readjusting to actually getting real food instead of straight up liquids. @@Inner Surfer Girl - Like I mentioned earlier, my NUT told me the shakes don't count towards the Fluid goal anymore since they aren't a clear liquid.. As it is, I can get about 40oz of water in and up to about 40~50g of protein altogether in a good day. Sans the protein shakes. Do you think that's still okay? @@Niki15 - I was trying to do something like this, but now that it takes me SO long to get through a Protein Shake because they don't make me feel well, I believe that's why I've supplemented with the high protein micro-meals every few hours instead (varying by class schedule during the week). Thanks for all of the replies so far! -
Accountability Thread for Feb 07 Bandsters
babygrl1234 replied to travelgirl's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I love ribs. You are not over eating. As long as you are not stuffing yourself until you want to barf you are fine. IN a typical day I eat: 530am-protein bar 8am- yogurt 11am- lunch...maybe some chicken or turkey or almost a whole can of tuna fish 2p small snack like grapes or a string cheese 530p dinner.. a small bit of whatever i have made the family 8p Protein shake "dessert" I feel fine and I am losing fine still. -
Ok, many of us have expressed a need or desire to be accountable for Protein intake, Water intake, food intake, calories, lots of stuff....SO I thought I'd start a thread for us so we have a place where we can come and be accountable! Just put in here whatever you want to be accountable, and we'll all help each other stay on track. I'll go first, I need to be accountable for the crap I'm putting in my mouth. So far today I've had a Fruit & Yogurt Parfait, 2 tbsp of tuna salad, 8 Triscuit thin crisps, a lite mozarella stick, and 1/2 of a New whey Protein bullet. (34 grams of protein) I've also had about 20 ozs of water so far today, too.

Tricks To Keep From Eating Too Fast
DLCoggin replied to LosingItForMe2011's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Chew every bite 20-25 times. Every bite should be the consistency of yogurt before you swallow it. Takes some concentration but it really slows you down! -
My Top 5 "No No" Foods @ 1 Month Post Op
nursepez replied to EweLewz's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm four weeks out tomorrow and I get to start solids tomorrow. During my "soft/mushy" stage I was able to eat scrambled eggs, refried Beans, fat-free greek yogurt, really soft stewed chicken and turkey chili with kidney beans (chewed well). I pretty much kept to those few things and could tolerate them well...1/4 cup at a time. No bread, rice or Pasta. Not sure how much I'll change that up as I move to "solids" tomorrow. -
January Surgeries
cfergie911 replied to KimberlyBlakely's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Started my diet today, feeling pretty good because I can have fruit and veggies and yogurt! 10 days till surgery and I am getting very anxious. But nonetheless, excited! -
I do that too lynn, cut them into tiny pieces but not powder... some things can't or shouldn't be cut though. Some meds are made to dissolve at a specific dose rate and cutting them up means they either dissolve in a bad place and can cause irritation, or you can get too big a dose at once. Ask if you can get a liquid antibiotic, or if it's safe to cut it up. Be sure and up your yogurt consumption or get some acidophyllus chewables to prevent a yeast infection!

It's best to eat every 2 or 3 hours. I have a Greek Yogurt in between each meal as a snack to fill me up and give me extra protein. The yogurts with my fluids, are keeping me feeling full and getting me through the day. Good luck.

thinoneday .....THANK YOU SO MUCH you are SO SO SO SO RIGHT!!!!! I've been eating between meal...like a cheese stick or two and then yogurt or pudding in the afternoon. The thing is I'm NOT REALLY HUNGRY I just THINK I need it! I am going to try to BUCKLE down and do EXACTLY what the NUT told me NO IN BETWEEN MEALS!!! Maybe it will come off faster during my HONEYMOON stage. OLD HABITS are SO HARD to break!!! Chilo1 I sure hope this helps you too! I will keep you in my prayers that we can OVER COME this food DEMON!!!

5 months and rocking it out! from Michigan
kimba6999 replied to kimba6999's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Hey KayleeC14 and MIMomaof2. I hope your week was good. Haven't really heard out of ya this week so I though I'd check in. I did my weigh in on thursday and had lost 4lbs last week. That was awesome. So current weight is 263, down 94 now and Sunday is 5 month post. I have having really good gym days this week. Although I didnt want to go today, i got up and went anyway and did a good workout. I am having one of those dont feel like eating days. Got my protein in but not enough calories. Tried the new dannon light and fit greek yogurt and its quite good. Higher in protein amd lower in calories so i think im gonna eat that for a while intead of my yoplait 100's. I am now at 50% of my goal and today i bought a new pair of Danskin pants. XL 16/18. That makes this last week of hell worth it for me. Well I hope all is good with you. I'll check back in later. Have a great week. -
Disneyland trip - 5 weeks Post-Op
ladylaura replied to Cyndie's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Disneyland is really good for healthy options now. I see yogurt and such everywhere there! Also, they are REALLY accommodating if there are food allergies or any dietary special needs. I would just ask the waiter or waitress, or at the food counters and they can probably suggest something or even blend it up for you! -
I am 3 wks post op is sushi ok? My NUT said I could have eggs and yogurt is sushi soft enouhh with no rice??

Sept date I am all set
dragonfly78 replied to chas4022's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
@@pindoctor I love my nutribullet, although I haven't been pureeing foods at this point. I have been sticking to either greek yogurt, small curd cottage cheese (I got the Breakstone in the individual cups) and I've done a couple eggs while just chewing the eggs and cottage cheese well before swallowing. Thankfully I only have to take one small pill twice per day along with any pain pill that I need so I have been able to take them with sips of water (weird sensation feeling the pill do down all the way now). I am looking forward to using the Nutribullet for more "involved" protein shakes in the near future. My surgeon's nurse gave me a sheet with some great recipes. It has been amazing how you really do feel full after only a few bites. I am looking to my next stage of foods, which is day 14-30, when I move into 2-3 ounces of regular textured proteins per meal (other than red meat) and a couple bites of soft canned or fresh fruit. Oh, and I can add beans, so I am planning on making a ground turkey chili!! <a href='http://www.bariatricpal.com'><img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/tickers/261346-dragonfly78/bodyweight.png?ts=1441924669' /></a>
