You're already on cottage cheese and yogurt? I'm told clear liquids until day 8 and a protein drink , then I can start some of that. -
May 15th, 2017 Sleevers Check in Here!!!
esaad replied to Newme17's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I was in surgery for about an hour and a half. I also had a hernia that the doctor repaired. My surgery started at 4:00 and I was out of recovery and in my room at 8:45. I've only taken pain medicine once today, and I didn't take the full dose. I just ate some cottage cheese and before that I had some banana yogurt. I've also been sipping on some yummy light lemonade that the hospital gave me. -
Yogurts?
Navigating the Wilderness replied to Margater's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I highly recommend Yoplait Greek 100 protein vanilla yogurt. Its a winner for me. If you can stomach plain yogurt, go for the FAGE plain it has like 20g of protein. -
Weight loss 6 weeks post vsg
Syaniya replied to Ren33vsg's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Breakfast an oikos yogurt, snack a slice of cheese or cheese stick, lunch cottage cheese or tuna package, afternoon snack more cheese. dinner normally whatever meat I cook for the family for dinner, plus the veggies or just cottage cheese again. For instance if I make them burgers, I'll just have mine in a bowl with tomatoes, pickles, and ketchup, no roll. Protein shakes to supplement if I'm short on protein for the day. Actually she told me to stop taking my calcium pills today as I was getting too much calcium. I have to keep track and not get too much calcium in or I'll get I think she said calcium deposits or something like that. One less pill I have to take work's for me [emoji4] Sent from my SM-N920V using BariatricPal mobile app -
I am 4 days out of operation.. in the clear liquids phase of the diet... struggling to get anything down. On the list of food from my doctor, it says yogurts. I believe they need to be sugar free and pretty much "chunk" free. Can anyone recommend a kind/brand for this? Hoping yogurt might get the nasty protein taste out of my mouth.

I've seen about 65lbs of regain, but that still puts me at maintaining over 70% EWL. HW: 650+ SW: 636 LW: 213 CW: 278 Favorite protein: Cellucor Peanut Butter Marshmallow (mixed with Fa!rLife milk). Daily vitamins: Multi x2 D3 (dry) 50,000-100,000 daily, per lab work K1 E A B12 Copper (as need, per labs) Calcium Magnesium Oxide Go-to snacks: Pork Rinds, cheese of any kind, Greek yogurt, and peanut butter.

How soon after surgery did you start Prilosec
Joann454 replied to Joann454's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Idk if this is normal but my surgeon is ok with me taking pills. It seems odd since my popsicles and yogurt can't have lumps. I have so many pills to take. This outta be fun! -
I'm on day 6 of 14. It is still tough but getting through it. Water...drink water when you find yourself having a headache. Warm items help me feel more satisfied. Soups and high protein hot chocolate are my favorites. Add ice in a blender with your shakes...it gives them a little bulk and there are small bits of ice you can chew! I add benefiber to one or two of my shakes each day to help keep things moving. I get up every 2 hours (sometimes less) to use the bathroom. I've lost about 7lbs since I started and I'm sure a lot of that is water! I'm trying a new recipe every day for shakes and soups. So while I'm having 2 chocolate premier protein shakes a day, the third one is usually something different. (My plan is 3 shakes and 3 protein liquid foods per day). I keep trying different yogurts but so far haven't found one I like. I keep telling myself better liver better surgery. I repeat that every time I see a food commercial or someone offers me something and I have to resist. Sent from my SM-G920V using BariatricPal mobile app

Way to go! I'm sure you are working hard! Hope you are proud of yourself! Weight loss can slow down but it is different for everyone. There can be a lot of reasons for this but don't let it mess with you. Focus on keeping up the good habits - whatever exercise you like, lean protein first and hydration. One reason that weight loss can slow down is that we weigh less and it takes less energy to do the same activities. As my surgeon put it - It is like driving a car to Florida and hauling something. If you are hauling 3000 pounds you are going to use more gas than if you are hauling 1000 pounds. Cravings and head hunger started to get really intense around the 8 to 9 month mark for me. It doesn't happen for everyone, some people don't even get cravings back. My best advice is read about mindful eating or books by Geneen Roth maybe get some counseling (helpful for me cause I'm a stress eater) and if possible avoid keeping around sweets if they trigger you to eat. I keep around sugar free popsicles and yogurt for when I really want something sweet. All the best to you!! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G930A using BariatricPal mobile app

April sleevers!?
Finding_Stacy replied to Simplyrosie's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Congratulations and welcome! I'm curious. What brand of shakes are you using? For instance, the Premier Protein shakes have 30 grams of protein per shake. Are you not finishing even one shake a day? Have you tried eggs or chicken yet? Does that hurt your stomach too? I'm just trying to figure out how you can get more protein in, because your body and skin needs that, and water, for proper healing and shrinking. You can always get the unflavored protein powder to add to your yogurts. I feel like anymore I survive on chicken breasts. I sometimes eat my oikos triple zero vanilla yogurt, but really do eat my protein first, then that other stuff. Either way, it's hard meeting these protein goals some days. For me, I got my period the night I came home from the hospital, so I was bloated and gassy anyway. -
Hello Everyone ! I was sleeved on April 20, man I was so scared that day ! I have been doing well.. going through some sort of a stall, the weight lose didn't stop but it is going soooo slow that I decided to forget about the whole weighting thing .. but now I have 2 main problems ! first: I don't feel like eating anything ! I force my self to have some yogurt and cheese or hummus, and today, my stomach doesn't like anything it just hurts and gets filled with gas .. I don't know if this might be related to the fact that I had my first period today ? did any of you had this with their periods ? the second thing, since I don't even want to eat, I can barely have 24g of protein in shakes .. any suggestions on how to make my self able to get more ? you are all great ! this is like my safe house now ,, always comes here for comfort !

I can't believe it's almost here. Liquid diet isn't bad because you're constantly drinking shakes, yogurt, pudding, broth and water throughout day. Not to mention, shrinking our liver is for our benefit so best to go hardcore and stick to plan. Sent from my SM-N920V using BariatricPal mobile app

Try Unjury Unflavored protein powder. You have to order it online. 20 grams in each scoop and it truly tastes like nothing. I put it on everything. I found a chicken and beef broth with 5 grams per half cup, I add the powder. I also drink it with apple juice and all I taste is the apple juice. Try Oikos triple zero yogurt, vanilla flavored. It has 15 grams of protein per serving. Not sweet and pretty tasty. I also order a chewable multi-vitamin from Unjury.com called Opurity and that is helpful. I get my 60 grams of protein relatively easy, with the help of this powder. I wish you all the best.

I have been having a lot of difficulty getting in my protien anyone else experiencing this? If I do yogurt I get sick and everything seems to be too sweet (even sugar free). I'm worried about healing without the necessary nutrients. Any suggestions? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using BariatricPal mobile app

Looking for suggestions on foods you enjoy
The New Kel replied to opie7799's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My go to snacks: My current favorite snack is toasted walnuts and pecans. I put the raw nuts in a pan, spray with Pam, add some Stevia and some salt, mix, and cook them on median heat until they start to brown. Let them cool and store them in the fridge. I use them on yogurt or just by themselves as snacks. My other go-to snacks: Deli meats with a slice of cheese, cold, leftover chicken, or a little salad with avocado and shrimp. -
2nd phase Pureed food ideas
SandyToes143 replied to maccc74's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I used a vitamix and puréed a can of tomatoes with a slice of seasoned tri-tip and a little broth to thin it out and added a little seasoning. You could also add some plain Greek yogurt for some extra nutrition. -

The process has been AMAZING so far!!! I am 6 moths post op. My surgery was Nov 08, 2016. I am down 100Lbs as of today. Not a ton of sagging skin but I work on my bowflex everyday and get a full body oil massage every other week (including cupping) to help my skin. I have only had a few minor issues with vitamin absorbtion. I get Iron infusions once a week and give myself B12 shots once a week. But that is nothing!! and I feel great!
I still hate that sick feeling after I eat! I try many different foods but Greek yogurt w/ protein is the ONLY thing that doesn't make me feel like crap after I eat it. The feeling always passes in about 30 min but that 30 min is spent feeling like I need to lay down or get sick. Anyone that says this is the 'easy' way has NO idea what we go through EVERY day! you don't realize how much of a luxury eating was till you can't. My before and after is attached.

Congrats! You look great! I hope I can hit 100 pounds lost by the time I hit six months as well. I'm sorry to hear that you are still having food issues - I really haven't had that problem much, although last night was the first time in a long time I felt incredible discomfort after I ate. I guess for bariatric patients it means a longer struggle finding foods that work for us.

You can also try sugar free pudding made with Fairlife skim milk or greek yogurt. Not sure if you're allowed that yet though. -
