Question... Just had 2 oikos yogurts
trenth posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I just started puree as I am one week out and was able to eat two oikos yorgurts the triple zero. Im not overly full... Should I be? Sent from my LG-H901 using the BariatricPal App -
I have coffee first thing. Half an hour later I have cottage cheese with blueberries or yogurt. I exercise in the morning for an hour so I want to get some protein in. Eating in the morning also gets your metabolism going. It is like putting a log in the fire.

I always thought my hospital does stuff way different then what I often read here. I was eating eggs and yogurt in the hospital the morning after surgery. Puréed meat as soon as I got home. Never once vomited. Sleeved 9/8/16, 70lbs down. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
I keep an eye on carbs. Right now my macros is set to 30% carbs 45% Protein and 25% fat. I have been told to watch my carbs. When I got to the purée stage, I was told I could purée Campbell's Chunky Healthy Request New England Clam Chowder which has potatoes. My NUT said that was fine. I still eat puréed Soup because I'm not at a stage where I can eat Soups without them being puréed. I usually get over 100 oz of fluids and between 80 and 100 grams of protein and about 70 grams of carbs, which is interesting to me because most of what I eat doesn't have carbs. My drinkable yogurt has quite a bit of carbs, and the soups I eat for lunch. The carbs may be helping me though, as I've been exercising more and more every week.

7 mths post op
Martha Parker-mcneal replied to curlysue86's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
actually the 48 hour one is the fastest and best I think. the first day you have all Protein shakes ( the lowest calorie ones not smoothies etc) on the second day have a Protein shake for breakfast one for mid morning one for lunch and one for mid afternoon. have a baked 8 oz chicken breast ( or thigh which is more moist to me) focus and eat very slowly chewing chewing chewing. no drinking rules apply watch for the feeling of satisfaction and then fullness ( but not stuffed) measure how much chicken you have left and subtract from the 8 oz. this is how much your pouch will hold of real food. you will be able to eat more slider food but since we really need to focus on protein this will let you know now much your pouch is holding. for me I usually eat between 3-4 oz meat and a half cup of veggies and I am 13 years out. on the 5 day each day you follow the same meal plan you did just after surgery. day one full liquids day two thick liquids foods ( yogurt applesauce etc) day three pureed foods day four soft foods and day five back to your regular meals. hope these help you good luck -
Hey everyone. I'm 3 days post op and was told to start my Protein shakes, creamy Soups, yogurt, etc today. Has anyone else had trouble adjusting so soon? It's hard enough for my to get 4oz of Water down in an hour. How can I get 60-80grams of protein? I'm still a bit confused on the eating schedule. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Scared or Doubting? I was too.
BariatricMaleModel replied to Keke288's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
My VSG Brother!!! Surgery 1/10/17 also... I was fine too, the next day managed to drink 2.5 of my Gatorade drinks they gave at hospital. Been drinking all clears, got ok for Protein drinks/yogurt/vanilla puddings for 5th day (waiting til 6th). They said can start pureed on Sunday, I stocked up chick peas, avocado, lox, Farmer's cheese....sooo looking forward to real food. I saw you did tuna and shrimp....can I asked how you ate or prepared shrimp? same surgery dates and i just boiled the shrimp to make them soft (3 Pieces Large Shrimp) and than used an electric chopper for the shrimp to chop it into the size of the tuna and BAMMM was wonderful and no problems at all Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

16 days post op and down 16lbs. It's slowing down as I'm leveling out but I'm feeling so much stronger and I'm eating yogurt, tuna fish, salmon, low fat cottage cheese, and high Protein meatless burritos with a flaxseed tortilla now. food is good but I'm still drinking my shakes because they make my Vitamins and protein intake easier. Shakes make sure I'm taking the food introduction and intake slowly as well. I want to get to know my new pouch nice and easy as the thought of throwing up or dumping horrifies me greatly!!

So I just tried greek yogurt again and surprise, surprise, it's still gross lol. I firmly believe they make you do this whole liquid diet thing because it makes you want to eat ANYTHING even if it's a vegetable What I wouldn't give for a salad right now! I don't like Jello, most yogurt, and I only slightly like pudding, so my choices are limited this week lol. Good luck to everyone else, we'll get through it!!!

Pre-op diet starts tomorrow
zizi_tops replied to Stephanielp's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
@bill1130 I am on my second shake for the day and I did have half a yogurt (as per my plan) but I am not allowed to take any pills pre-op so I haven't had any Vitamins in 3 days. -

Guest replied to TheRevisionedVagabond's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Don't you feel great? I miss food big time, wasn't a junk eater....I want my usual salmon and lox, etc. I know when I eat too many carbs (happens around Thanksgiving every year) I feel like crap. Well, this year was worse as I thought I am not going to eat this or that after surgery. I can't even begin to tell you how it affects my joints. Pre-op started 12/27 and last time I ate chicken/veg was on 1/8, then liquids since. I feel so great, although I can't stop thinking about when I can get pureed foods which is next week. They let us start yogurt and similar on day 5 if we felt ready, I was but had Protein pudding instead, kefir and yogurt started night before. A yogurt never felt so satisfying, it took me an hour to have a 5.4 oz Triple Zero Oikos. -
Just to add to the response above... during extreme weight loss, the body can also use muscle tissue to produce energy, not just fat. This is why strength training is very, very important for a bariatric patient after surgery. Some things that have changed for me after having lost 78 lbs: - Bowel movements are once or twice a week... and sometimes it's... difficult. This is because of how little we eat. - I sleep a hell of a lot better than I did at close to 300. I no longer wake up several times a night. - Bladder leaking while sneezing, etc issues are completely gone. I also no longer need to pee during the night. - I can wear dresses without my thighs rubbing each other raw. - Packing lunch for work takes me less than 10 minutes. It goes like this: Put a greek yogurt into the bag, throw a few shrimp into a container with sauce on the side, add a cheese stick for later, and Protein hot chocolate mix for the afternoon. Done. - Sex is a lot easier and more fun because mobility has greatly increased. - My periods, which had been irregular before, are now a lot more regular (still a bit off, but improving) .... I'm sure others will add some, but those have been some of the big ones for me

Tips to Avoid Nightime Eating?
Erissel replied to sill21's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
First... make sure you're eating your meals regularly throughout the day. That's the most important thing to avoid being hungry late in the evening. Second, set a time to stop eating that is 4 hours before you go to sleep. I generally go to sleep at 11:30 pm so I don't eat anything after 7:30 pm Lastly, allow yourself something small to tide you over if you really can't stand it. Choose a calorie dense, healthy food. I like a spoonful of nut butter or greek yogurt. Something that might help... BariWise makes some awesome hot cocoa mixed that are under 100 calories and give you 15 grams of Protein. I like to sip these in the evening if I'm hungry You can find it here: https://www.amazon.com/BariWise-15g-High-Protein-Chocolate/dp/B00NTBC276/ -

I found what worked for me to lose some weight u might want to try it and see if this works for you. Breakfast: slim fast shake (4 hr hunger control ) 8 Oz of 1% milk I scoop of slim fast and ice and blend Lunch: I made enough to make 2 portions one for dinner. Dice up egg plant, carrots,tomatoes, onions, green onions, bell peppers, broccoli, colliflower, season with whatever seasoning u like. I used adobo cumin , black ,pepper, garlic and lime juice sautéed it. And u can pair it with 3 Oz lean meat fish, turkey, chicken I cook it in my my wave oven. And I take a tablespoon og low fat Greek yogurt and hot sauce. And omg it's delish. Dinner: Eat second portion of lunch same way. Eat raw carrots when u have a craving to eat in between. You will lose weight eating this everyday and those 10 lbs will come off in no time. Try it. Yes I know it will become boring eating this everyday but it worked for me. I actually love it. Good luck.

Pre-op diet starts tomorrow
zizi_tops replied to Stephanielp's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Im on day 3 of the liquid pre-op diet. Started on the 17th, surgery on the 31st. Surprisingly not as hungry as I thought I'd be. I drink 3.5 or 4 premier shakes a day, 1 serving of yogurt too. The yogurt helps!! I can have a 8oz glass of skim-milk but I've never really liked milk by itself. I'd say day 1 was pretty rough but sugar free Popsicles & sugar free jell-o got me through it. 2nd day I stuck to Water, my shakes, yogurt and two cups of broth. Im in the state of mind - keep my eyes on the prize!! I have pictures and my calendar in my fridge to keep me motivated. We can do this!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

I advanced a couple of days early for all of my phases, but only by trying little bits at a time. I didn't just go straight from liquids to chicken salad, but I went to puréed cauliflower and yogurt and things like that before fully progressing. I found I tolerated things more easily when I made the transition slowly. I'm currently in soft foods and pretty content. I just can't wait for salads! -
I got foil packs of Salmon Creations (lemon &dill) then used a hand mixer to add a few tablespoons of Fage' plain greek yogurt. Really easy to get my protein in that way.

Hi - I find that I wake up hungry so I always eat some sort of breakfast. (But I don't have to get up as early as you!) I will eat one of the following - premier Protein shake -oikos yogurt (15 grams of protein) + a tiny bit of high protein Go Lean crunch Cereal in it + a few strawberries or blueberries - 2 eggs and a bunch of veggies mixed in - leftover piece of chicken - if I want something that I can really chew that feels like breakfast food, I'll have some go lean crunch cereal + milk I do try and get at least 25 grams of protein in for breakfast. It keeps me full and not wanting to graze by 9 or 10am.

Yes, you can puree pinto Beans. You can have canned chicken or tuna on the puree stage. I would mix my chicken with a little lowfat mayo and seasonings and have it like a little chicken salad. Refried beans, hummus, yogurt, cottage cheese, scrambled eggs, ricotta bake.
