Yeah it's sliding right through but at least Greek yogurt is better than a lot of other things you could be eating

4 days out need help

Clear liquid diets consist of see-though, clear liquids (read: clear juice without pulp, water, broth, jello, tea, etc). Full liquid diets consist of liquids you cannot see through (read: milk, shakes, strained soups, yogurt, pudding, gravies, thinned oatmeal, thinned cream of wheat, sherbet). -
My sleeve is too big
Walter.Sobchak replied to Walter.Sobchak's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I am over-eating because I am starving and a food addict. It is nice to know that dense food will fill me up more. I think I am going to stop buying the Greek yogurt. Sent from my SM-G900V using BariatricPal mobile app -
September Bypass Buddies
bluepixie2038 replied to Bariatric_girlie's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
So, I am just focusing on getting enough liquid in the next few days. Will reevaluate at the end of the week, because I am not itching to start puree: the only things on the list that appeal to me are runny scrambled eggs and yogurt. Sent from my SM-G935T using BariatricPal mobile app -
August Sleevers-How are you doing??
Janet610 replied to Ash_Bri85's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I also was told I drinking 30 min before and 30 after which is a challenge cause I want to drink, yet struggle the rest of the day to get my liquids in... crazy. im eating more solid foods, turkey burger for dinner last night with a small amount of fat free cheese. I manage about 3.5 oz burger and a few soft veggies. Takes about 35 min to eat that. going to a support meeting wed so I'm looking for ideas because the dr said to eat low fat, low sugar others say watch carbs but the yogurt recommended in my plan is cannon Greek triple zero but has 15g carbs which I thought was kind of high. So im sticking to the lean turkey for burgers, egg beaters with fat free ham for now until I can figure out how to be more creative without blowing the fat or carb count! -
My sleeve is too big
Introversion replied to Walter.Sobchak's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Why are you eating three Greek yogurts in one sitting? Just because you can doesn't necessarily mean you should. Anyhow, back to the question at hand...Greek yogurt is considered a thickened liquid consistency, like pudding thick. Campbell's tomato soup is a liquid. Liquids don't challenge the sleeved stomach. In other words, they slide past the stomach into the small intestine without activating stretch receptors, so they don't trigger a sense of fullness. I could consume a gallon of soup without feeling full because it's 'sliding.' You won't feel fullness until you attempt to eat animal-based protein such as chicken breasts, steak, pork chops, etc. I guarantee you won't be able to eat three chicken breasts. -

4 days out need help
XYZXYZXYZ1955 replied to faithlove's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Check to see if they gave you a list--I was given detailed paperwork on post-op diet phases. Probably, however, you can have yogurt and cream soups and sugar-free pudding. And oh, so many protein shakes . . . -
I'm allowed 6 oz for meals (sometimes finish half then the other half as a snack) and 2 snacks at like 2-3 oz each. Usually cottage cheese with fresh pineapple or some Greek yogurt. I give myself 900 calories. Dietician said that's a fine max. Every once in a while I go a little over but usually I'm under.

Chicken too early dangerous?
KateBruin replied to SippinAintEasy's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I just started the soft food/puree phase when I was 15 days out. I'm allowed tuna salad, chicken and egg salad, runny scrambled egg, sweet potato. So far I've been mostly having chicken salad and tuna salad for my meals. Dinner was TJs reduced guilt chicken salad (I think it has a couple naughty ingredients like shredded carrots but in tiny amounts) and 2 oz of sweet potato. I also put small chopped pickle in my tuna salad to make it interesting. Also naughty but works so far and tastes yummy. Double check it isn't included. UCLA's food schedule seems to be one of the most strict and like I said I can have chicken salad. Not chicken by itself but finely chopped soft chicken and plain Greek yogurt instead of mayo. Also allowed soft fish among other things. Soft fruits like banana and cantaloupe. -

Im really happy for the way things are going and i hope al my september buddies feel the same way too [emoji137][emoji137] Sent from my F3313 using BariatricPal mobile app

You might want to cut out the drinkable yogurt (high sugar count) make your own with fruit-Greek yogurt 0% and unsweetened almond milk and swap electrolyte water or protein water in place of Gatorade.... that will drop your calorie intake significantly

Personally, from this list, I would have consumed the greek yogurt (plain), and protein shakes (if I could have stood them). The rest is pretty much trash. BUT, as long as you KNOW it's trash, and it's only temporary to get through this phase, then that's all right. I don't care about calories during the first 8 weeks.. I care about meeting the protein goals, and trying to learn how to read labels to tell which foods have the right nutrient "profile", and which ones don't. For example, go to the yogurt section of your store. Some yogurts have, I don't know... 5g of protein and 40g carbohydrate. Totally unacceptable! Another yogurt has 13g protein and 10g carbs.. that one I'd put in my cart. It takes time and work. But, doesn't everything that's worth doing?

Still struggle with binging mindset
Little Green replied to Monasmle's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
Great post, @Monasmle! I really appreciate you sharing how you got through that struggle. I totally understand the feeling you were having during that 3-hour back and forth with yourself. Oftentimes I experience this around lunchtime b/c I used to eat fast food lunch every single day and of course I am pre-op so if I wanted to I definitely could eat it, no problem. I fight with myself and end up waiting hours to eat until I am finally hungry enough that nuts or cheese or yogurt sounds tasty lol. I think I'll try to incorporate your tactic next time. -

How much can you eat in puréed stage?
lessoflilo posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hello everybody! I was just wondering what your day looks like during te puréed stage. How much can you eat in a sitting; Ive been doing 2 tablespoons of protein (ie: tuna blended with Greek yogurt) and 2 tablespoons (or less) of mashed potato. I feel I could eat more. I don't want to overeat. I also don't know when I'm full. How do you know you are full? Thank you in advance! -
I had mine on Wednesday morning, I would have gone to work today if I hadn't already turned in my time card. The only issue I have is when I sneeze, blow my nose or getting in and out of bed. My left side where they put the drain and the pump is very sore. I guess it is like having a hernia. They gave me some oxycodone and it knocks down the pain pretty well. I can't believe I am no longer hungry, Tomorrow, I get to add Greek Yogurt and cream soups and protein shakes back to my diet.

Why do protein drinks taste awful?
Berry78 replied to Véronique's topic in Protein, Vitamins, and Supplements
I suffered through protein shakes preop. Postop, I just couldn't do it. My tastes had changed, and it just wasn't gonna happen. Stuff tasted like rat poison, and if I'd HAD to drink it, I would probably just opt for the rat poison and be done with it! Lol. Fortunately, I didn't have to endure it. A cup of milk or bone broth has 8g protein. A quart of milk, and a quart of broth each day, and I met both my liquid and protein goal in one fell swoop. Then I moved to high protein kefir, cottage cheese, and greek yogurt. Then pureed tuna and beans.. then on to solid foods. I never really had days that I didn't meet my goals. If I'd stressed about the carbs in milk or kefir, it would have been another matter. But how I looked at it.. the first 8 weeks is for healing the tummy, and if it meant taking my carbs with my protein, then so be it. I have another year's worth of "honeymoon" phase to worry about cutting carbs and "doing it right". And you know what? I lost at about the same rate as everyone else. (Keep in mind, I'm talking about the naturally occuring sugars in milk and dairy products.. not a bunch of added sugar). Sometimes people can't tolerate dairy, and that makes it much harder. Broth would have to be your bff if you can't tolerate dairy or protein shakes. -
Why do protein drinks taste awful?
XYZXYZXYZ1955 replied to Véronique's topic in Protein, Vitamins, and Supplements
I'm beginning to hate them, too, but I suppose Premier is the best I've tried. The vanilla is too sweet, and the banana is pretty sweet, too, but I can deal with the chocolate and the strawberries and cream. Barely. I'm trying to find other ways to deal with this--getting some protein from yogurt, from high-protein soup (I'm actually using some Medifast packets a friend gave me--I'm just happy it's not sweet). Last night I made instant pudding with two scoops of protein powder--not terrible. But, you know, sweet. Among my favorite options is Atkins LIFT protein drink (and counts toward my water, so bonus there). But my desire to get past this stage to things like eggs and cottage cheese is enormous. -
I can eat a single serving size greek yogurt (one carton) . It wasn't like this day 1, but I could do it about week 3. But I can not even eat 2oz of meat. It feels like lead! Sent from my XT1254 using BariatricPal mobile app

Hang in there, it does get easier . . . and I say this less than two weeks out and equally sick of the shakes. But the water thing is a gradual series of steps toward getting more in; I"m still not all the way there, but I do a bit better day by day. I'm so sick of the shakes I'm trying to get protein from other (permitted) ways--yogurt, protein soup, bone broth, protein water (bonus: it's water!). I know we had different surgeries, so some experiences will be different, but I'm sure some RNY'ers will chime in with help. Good luck and hang tough! We can do this.
