Frozen yogurt is not a good choice. The carbs and sugar are going to impede weight loss, and there is no protein in it. Protein and water should be your main focus right now.

Struggling with post op diet!
Deactivatedfatgal replied to Lizzyfromnapa's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm 7 days out and won't start puréed stage till Monday. I can honestly say I've gotten very little protein in. I have to find a way to change it BUT it's super difficult because I hate the taste of protein drinks and the Greek yogurt makes me want to throw up. Sugar free popsickles mixed with water and ice has been my go to but I need to do better -
My doctor says no jello, yogurt or pudding.....i can only have protein shakes, crystal light, broth, sugar free popsicles and soups that go through a strainer
-
My nutritionist told me eating sugar free jello & pudding helps with that hungry feeling. Also, yogurt & Fat Free or 1% milk with protein. Also, sugar free popsicles , cut them up in cubes & chew them. When I went through liquids only fat free cream of chicken with protein helped me with hunger since it's savory. I got tired of the sweet stuff. Height: 5'0" Weight for WLS consultation: 216 lbs. Surgery date: 2/13/17 Goal: -71 lbs for healthy BMI (about 145 lbs). Current weight: 180.8 My profile picture is not me. It's my "FITspiration" body.

Struggling with post op diet!
Lizzyfromnapa posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My surgery was last Tuesday (6 days ago). I'm still on stage 3 (water, bean Soups, yogurt, and Protein shakes). At this point I'm still unable to eat more than 3-4 bites of anything without getting the chest pain as if I'm eating fast, but I know I'm not. It's becoming impossible to get the required 60g Of protein and 64 oz of water/fluids. The only way is to have 2 ENTIRE shakes (I can drink 1/4 and it takes me 45 mins) and work on Water ALL day! Ugggh. Seems like a full time job and im failing big time. Any suggestions?? Please tell me this doesn't last long🙁 -

Sleeved on 3/13
Deactivatedfatgal replied to ebarclay's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Hi I was sleeved on 3/13 also! My dr has me on liquid diet until two weeks out. I haven't been consuming the recommended protein but I try! I also try to get at least a 20g yogurt in but it usually takes me two days for that and I was on whey protein but just switched to premier. Last weigh in at my Preop was 237 (with heels and clothes on) this morning i was 217. I know I've lost abt two pds a day since 3/13 -

I started on puree but only ate yogurt with protein powder and chocolate pudding with protein powder. I am going to try tuna with fat free mayonnaise tomorrow. So far everything going down fine! -
Band to Sleeve - Gaining Weight Back
deckthhall replied to vickitoria's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
my nurse practitioner had me give up all liquid protein shakes, yogurt, hummus, etc. and only eat foods like chicken breast and hamburger patties -- anything that takes more effort to eat. i also am making sure not to drink 30 minutes before and after eating. i find that this has helped my portion control, and i'm back to losing again -- slow but steady. -
Gas after drinking protein drink
bobspeg replied to arringtonc49's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thanks for all the good posts. I have always been a little lactose intolerant. I've been using almond milk for years. I use the unsweetened almond milk with the shakes, and still have the gas and bloating. I am, however, able to tolerate most fat free yogurts without the same problem. I'll pick up some lactaid tomorrow and see if that helps. -

wheelem replied to Inner Surfer Girl's topic in Regular foods (stage 4)
I add low carb yogurt to my cottage cheese, fresh or canned fruit or just eat it plain. -

Sleeved in 7 hours
Lizzyfromnapa replied to Lizzyfromnapa's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm now 4 days post op. It's getting easier THANK GOD!!! I wasn't quite ready to leave the hospital but I figured if the Dr thought I was, I was. Pain is most intense in the morning. At first I thought it was the incision sites but its lower so I'm guessing it's actually my stomach!! Anyhow, I was given liquid norcos and as little as I'm trying to use it, there's only enough for maybe 2 more doses and I have 0 refills. Hoping the pain subsides! It's hard to get the 60 grams of protein. I drink a shake in the am (27 g) and a 1/3 of a yogurt (3 g) about an hour later, and a shake in the pm..still not meeting the goal but I just don't want to eat (drink) anything right now. Doing well with water though. Walking daily, a few times a day to just get up and moving. Still no poop in 3 days now, any suggestions? I've tried a suppository. I'm on colace but there's nothing TO SOFTEN so that's not working either. Looking forward to progressing with the diet and creating healthy meals that will benefit my whole family! -

What are you eating 3wk postop?
Slightly_tachy replied to SleevedinSI's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
5 days out and you can eat yogurt? I had my surgery 3/8 and I'm dying from liquids, just waiting to get the chance to eat yogurt. I have 3 days left of full liquids until I can move to puree/soft foods. I bought some whey protein today to try and get more protein in because I have been getting tired of premier protein....I bought cinnamon swirl whey powder and mixed it with unsweetened almond vanilla milk....it was okkkkk only I remember why I hate protein powders because it's dang near impossible to get all the powder mixed.... I think everyone's plan is different but I aim to get 90g protein in daily. -
chache6464 5+ year VET at GOAL i still don't think it would be good for my health to do housework! my hubby is understanding and helps out he knows i need to watch tv on the couch, eat yogurt, while saving energy for my protein bar! many people recover WLS and are walking in the mall right after surgery. they might have had in and out surgery other people take 2-3 weeks to get their strength back!! continued good luck kathy

What are you eating 3wk postop?
Deactivatedfatgal replied to SleevedinSI's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm five days post op and will be able to eat puréed/soft foods at two week mark. Sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes, Redford beans, mild cheese, and hopefully slim fast meal replacements will b okay. I currently have the whey protein and it makes me legit almost vomit, literally living off of abt 20g of protein a day from yogurt. I have no apetite and have to remind myself to sip on the nasty rote in rink or have a spoonful of yogurt or a few sips of broth. -

SweetPeaGracie replied to SleevedinSI's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Breakfast is eggs with cheese or high protein oatmeal. Lunch is Greek yogurt, cottage cheese or refried beans with cheese, and dinner usually chicken and maybe mashed potatoes. I have been drinking fairline chocolate milk which has 13 grams of protein. I also have string cheese for a snack 8 g of protein. I have not had any protein drinks. I can't tolerate those. I am getting in at least 75 g of protein a day eating this way. I have been taking all of my vitamins and I have lost 25 pounds in four weeks. I have BM every other day now [emoji90][emoji90] -
One year today- my re-birthday!
cdeisroth replied to cdeisroth's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
We will always have restriction, just not like it was when we first had the surgery. Around month 9 I noticed I could eat a lot more. Around month 11 even more. I'm maintaining my weight now eating around 1200-1400 calories a day. That would have been unheard of at 7 months where I was still eating 700-800 a day. How my restriction works depends on the density of the food. I know my max is 4 ounces of meat in one sitting. I can eat 1 yogurt with 1/4 cup of granola and will be full. I hear you when you talk about fear, I'm always scared too that I'll slip back to the old me, so I give myself rules. 90/10. 90% of the time I follow the bariatric diet. 10% I get what I want, whether it's a peice of toast with my eggs, a glass or two of wine on a Saturday night, or a small fun size pack of M&m's after lunch. I don't believe in restricting certain foods into a "never again" category but what I have learned is moderation and control, so I'm learning to trust my splurges, knowing that I'm in full control and will not go overboard 90% of the time. -
Constipation, in my opinion, has been the biggest issue since having surgery. When I was 2 weeks out I was taking Milk of Magnesium. I blended it with a shake. After a month or so I switched to Miralax, one serving a day mixed with yogurt or a shake. Sometimes I take a Dulcolax, like others mentioned, when the going really gets rough.

Gas after drinking protein drink
Torriluv87 replied to arringtonc49's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Are you mixing lactose free milk in with it? My nutritionist suggested skim or fairlife milk but im too lactose intolerant. Even using soy milk im still slightly affected because of the whey protein in my powder but not nearly as bad as using full dairy. I can still have 2 shakes a day. My soy milk was frozen so i used the regular milk we had and cut it with water. My stomach was trashed for 2 days. And i only had about 8oz of milk. I was always lactose intolerant but i think its worse now. I would love to be able to eat yogurt again, Greek yogurt was my fave and i just discovered the Oikos 000 and they are so good. But they Wreaked absolute HAVOC on my tummy. So dairy is VERY limited for me. -
6 days post op and depressed
Jess55 replied to The thinner me's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had one week post op Clear liquids, one week full. Plus I had a one week liquid diet pre op. I get to start puree on Monday. I can't wait to have something with a little sustance! Though it will probably just be yogurt and ricotta bake and egg. I can't stand the idea of purée meats. Plus my Protein drinks
