290 calories for Greek yogurt? EEEEKKKK...
Miss Mac replied to marfar7's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
The Fit and Active Vanilla Greek Yogurt that I get from Aldi's has 140 calories per cup. -
Today is 4 weeks post RNY surgery for me. - Down 16.8 lbs. I've had a couple of times where my weight has stayed stable for more than 5 days in that 4 weeks (including now). Still watching to see if a pattern emerges and trying to take it in stride (not always successfully). - No issues with liquids at all (yay!). I have been getting between 80 and 100 most days. - Eating up to 4 oz at a time. I haven't tried for more except with greek yogurt (I eat the whole container of the Oikos triple zero which is just over 5 oz). - On soft foods for the last 2 weeks and so far I've tolerated everything I've tried (eggs, Tuna, Ricotta bake, lunchmeat, etc...). I had chicken for the first time today (canned and made into chicken salad) and that went down well. - I can get my protein in but only if I do a couple of shakes (or max a premier out by adding some collagen). - Walking daily up to 1 mile. I go back to work on Thursday (I was VERY fortunate to take a full month off). I also plan on starting back with my rowing machine in addition to the walking. All in all I am extremely happy with how I've healed so far. I'm looking forward to continuing the journey. I have a lot of work ahead of me to get to a healthy weight but I am hopeful.

eggs for Breakfast, greek yogurt or cheese & lunchmeat for Snacks, tuna for lunch and Protein for dinner. It is possible but you have to count carefully. -
Normal restriction or too tight?
StaceyLink posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I just got my 2nd fill last week and I've been having a hard time eating. I know that's kinda the point of the band, but I eat 4 bites and find myself with discomfort in my chest. The food does seem to go down though. I'm eating slowly with small bites, but now I find myself wanting more yogurt or slidey foods to supplement the 4 bites of real food. Is this normal restriction or is the band too tight? -

What are some good low carb breakfast options?
kellyw74 replied to alma95's topic in Food and Nutrition
Foster Farms meatballs are really yummy and have like 16 g protein in 3. I can only eat 2-2.5, but still that is alot. Amylu carmalized onion chicken burgers from Costco are good and juicy. I eat those alot, they have 22g of protein in 1, but are big and I can only eat 1/2. Chicken salad and tuna salad Wendy's Chili Greek yogurt-i don't like it, but lots of people do Cottage cheese Foster Farms oven roasted turkey breast lunch meat with laughing cow cheese wedge spread on it-YUMMM Oscar Meyer roast beef with the same as above Baked salmon Precious cheese stick These are just some of the things I like to eat. Hope it helps you. Kelly -
Wine And Whine Wednesday!
gramaof4 replied to Lilee84's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My gripe is "Why can't my husband WAKE the F*** up" He says to me in public when I have 2 Tablespoons of food on my plate...."wow your being a pig tonight" or "making a gluten out of yourself today"...I came home last night and he had fixed dinner (first time in 10 yrs) Deep Fried Battered shrimp a and chicken and Homemade Fries....really...does he think this is "GOOD HEEALTHY" food? or is it just deliberate sabbatage tactics...? I made a banana strawberry greek yogurt smoothie....was wonderful and chose not to indulge in the mounds of saturated oils...Oh but how the food smelled so wonderful. -
Most humiliating day ever! 22 days post op..
Graygr82 replied to Graygr82's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
No problems with gas really right now. But I am eating yogurt and have had no lactose issues -
My Nut approved having a fat free Chobani greek yogurt with fruit for an afternoon snack. I add about 2 tablespoons vanilla Protein powder and some splendra. FF Greek Yogurt is sour (in my opinion). So for less than 200 calories I am getting about 30 grams of protein with some fruit. I need to have a late afternoon snack. I have lunch around noon go to the gym at 6, and don't get dinner until 8. There is no way I could go that long and go to the gym without eating. ' As noted above most doctors say no Snacks, but I think that is because they don't think fat people can make good choices and/or eat small amounts. 200 calories of Yogurt is different than a Snicker bar. Oh how I love snickers sigh!

Well it turned out, I only worked out that one time. I am so upset. My job had me so consumed, and I just couldn't let go. I was coming home 8:30/ 9:00p, with no energy to work out. One day, I didn't get to eat until after 8:30p. I was an emotional reck. The funny thing was, I really wanted to over eat, and my little stomach was not hearing that. LOL! I was mad, cause I wanted to make up for lunch and dinner. I had to really talk to myself and remind myself, that I would be okay just eating the one meal (well I had a protein shake, a banana and some yogurt, but not lunch), and my mind just couldn't shake that. I realize that has been one of my down falls, eating late as hell. I am greatful for this surgery, because I am forced to not to over eat. I am getting my mind on track with my body (slllooooooowwwwwwwwwlllllllyyy). I will be at the gym in the morning. I think your task of walking to the game was cool. Heck, you could have been dropped off. LOL! I know the other people probably would have have agreed to that, but the option could have been different none the less. Stay encouraged

I've tried pro-yo. It's like a protein yogurt, 20g of protein. The flavor I've had is only ok, it just tastes like a frozen protein shake.

Lowest sugar Yogurt?
esskay77 replied to numeby2017's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My NUT also recommended Siggi Yogurt but I didn't love it. I may give it another try just to be sure. But it's a nice change of pace anyway. I found it at Target. -
Name some of the most difficult things you experienced after vsg surgery
jdmama911 replied to isleeveinjesus's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
The Good: I have lost 65lbs. since surgery (4mos. out) Im struggling to get my calories in 1/2 the time (which is a GREAT problem to have) I FORGET to eat lol Im watching my 11 year old son learn and beginning to follow my footsteps as far as food choices (So proud of him) My sex drive is almost too much for my husband lol I can't tolerate much fried food (I ate a lifetimes worth before, so Im happy about this lol) I eat a yogurt for Breakfast most days and Im not hungry forever afterward I actually am not afraid to think about being thin. I KNOW Im going to make it this time The BAD CONSTIPATION!! Lots of change (I've always been a fan of sameness) in my life Not knowing how to deal with stress now. I used to deal with stress by eating and smoking. I gave both of those up..What happened? I starting acting like a psychotic maniac and FLIPPING OUT on people for very little things. I think I almost put my job on the line a couple times. I started smoking again a couple weeks ago because I can't lose my job right now. I didn't lie to my husband (first time I was straightforward with him about my smoking). I think Im going to need some counseling. I haven't faced my stress without a detrimental coping mechanism in...maybe my entire life THE UGLY The inside of my thighs That's it. I love my sleeve for everything it is -
Hi All, I can't believe it, but I got banded on Aug. 7. I was lucky in that I was the first surgery of the day, but I had to get there at 5:30 am Anyway, was a little nauseous when I woke up, but was so glad it went away. All the staff was great. I can't say the surgery was very much fun, though. I'm feeling kind of icky. I haven't been sleeping well, and last night my CPAP machine wouldn't seal to my face right. Aargh! My stomach is churning, churning. My incisions were glued shut, and couple of them started bleeding the first night home. I'm a little worried about them. Dr. said just to put a bandaid on them. I was also bringing up a lot of phlegm, which makes my worry about my lungs. I've got some gas too, I think. The strangest thing was the morning after the surgery, I found that I was suddenly far-sighted. This isn't what my vision is usually like. I can't seem to focus on anything close up. My optometrist said it could be the residual effects of anaesthesia, and my eye muscles are sleepy or something. I'm still having this problem today. It's really disconcerting. I'm sick of protein drinks. So much sweetness. but I feel like I've dropped a ton of water and have to watch my hydration. Very much looking forward to cottage cheese, yogurt, refrieds, and eggs. I would take some more oxycodone, but I think that's not going to help my eyes wake up. Sigh. My problem is that I'm a bit of a hypochondriac, and I'm alarmed at every twinge. Wish me luck! Can't wait to be more healed.

Ideas For Puree Stage?
Carrie's Journey replied to LorenaVaca's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I can't. I'm almost 3 weeks out and can only have Soup (not creamy or chunky), cottage cheese, eggs, Greek yogurt, tofu...I think that's it. I think next week I can start tuna, chicken, and egg salad but I'm sure they'll tell me no to any crackers. -
2 weeks since surgery and not hungry
ashemademe posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hello everyone, I had my surgery 11/10 and right now I am on mushy food. In the mornings I have a Protein shake, snack Greek yogurt and lunch tuna and Soup. Some nights I have a little baked fish. But honestly I don't think about food at all. My doctor wants me to have my first fill on 12/5 and I am scared of the tightness. Do you think I show postpone it until I start feeling hungry? -
find what works for you. I'm 4 months out and still using Phenergan suppositories twice a day while mostly eating Quest Proten bars and yogurt fruit smoothies Not much real food yet. some of us take longer. It's hard to work through it Keep calling your dr.

Losing weight preop!?! Help!
Bufflehead replied to LaGueriTaChuLa13's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Here is what I would do: Do you have a myfitnesspal account? If not, get one. Set your daily caloric intake to 1200, and your ratios to 35% carbs, 30% protein, and 35% fat. Start logging EVERYTHING you eat. Weigh or measure EVERYTHING you eat. Focus on high protein foods like meat, fish, eggs, Greek yogurt, lower fat cheese, and cottage cheese. Small amounts of beans and lentils for fiber, green veggies. These should be your mainstays. Supplement with small amounts of healthy fats such as nuts, olive oil, and avocados. The higher protein and fat ratios will help you feel a bit more satisfied. That said, you will undoubtedly feel hungry and unsatisfied at times over the next month. You have to push through that. Yes, you are hungry, but it is okay to be hungry given the goal you are working towards. It won't be forever. Being hungry is unpleasant but it is not an emergency. Do not bother logging any exercise or "eating back" exercise calories. This will just slow you down. Good luck! -
I can't eat without getting sick
Sharon1964 replied to karla_newman's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
If it were me, I would call my surgeon. In the meantime, go back to things that are easy on your stomach. Mashed potato, pureed Soup, mashed avocado, yogurt, pudding, scrambled eggs. -
Also the only cream cheese I had was a Greek yogurt cream cheese which has half the fat of regular. Maybe if they had the full fat they would be better.

Ugh I'm messing up already
juju79 replied to bb3586's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was sleeved the same day. I am not hungry at all but I have found that i love Greek yogurt and refried beans with mozzarella cheese and sour cream, I hated refried beans before and love them now. -

Inner Surfer Girl replied to bb3586's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
If you can't find soft foods you like you can also still use liquid supplements to get your Protein. You don't have to default to noodles and other carbs. When I was on soft foods I lived on yogurt, cottage cheese, refried Beans, soup, pudding, eggs, and Protein shakes. The second week of soft foods I was allowed soft fish so I added tuna, tilapia, and salmon to the mix. Each phase builds on the previous phases so you can continuously add foods to your options. -
I haven't bought the Chobani because of the carb count. Some people are really sensitive to carbs, and others do great with calorie restriction alone, regardless of the make-up of the calories--I'm one who can't lose if I got over 40-ish carbs, no matter how low I keep the calories. With the plain yogurt, what I do most is put in a few drops of vanilla extract and a couple packets of Splenda or Truvia, but you can also use sf flavored syrups, sf jam, stuff like that.
