Two weeks post op...how much water weight is there?
orangesali posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm two weeks and two days out and have just barely lost 5 pounds. I'm not really ever hungry- mostly just mental cravings I think. I've been eating Soup pretty religiously and now added FF plain Greek yogurt and FF/SF pudding, adding in GENEPRO Protein powder get me to 60g of protein. On my worst day I'm still eating less than 800 calories. Not sure why more isn't coming off, but my doctor didn't seem too concerned. I've got to believe that it'll come off soon, right? Note: I did lose 50 pounds pre-surgery but not sure if or how that would affect me post-op. -
Thank you for the suggestion I find that I am gulping water causing my tummy to hurt .... have almost thrown up 2 times , I know they say no straw but that is the only way I can take small sips. I tried adding mild ( fairlife) to my yogurt and it helped Thanks ! Its so amazing to have this extra support right now! Thank you all

Sharing some progress :)
khalid151 replied to khalid151's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
Great job on the progress. Can I ask what you did during to the two months in terms of food and exercise? Sent from my SM-G928T using the BariatricPal App Hey sure of course I'll tell you! For me it's started with sugar free apple juice, chicken stock and Water for my first phase. I try during that time to walk as much as I could. Next phase I added puree'd chicken to the chicken stock and added skimmed yogurt. During the whole time I had cut out all sugars and all sources of carbs. My fav go to Protein is grilled fillet of fish or salmon. My source of carbs come from veggies like broccoli. Basically I keep my calorie intake up to 700 calories a day. I also try to hit 60 to 70 grams of protein a day plus as much water as I can. For my exercise, I walk about 10,000 footsteps a day. Not everyday but most days. I also hit the gym 3 to 4 times a week where I do 30 min of cross trainer or the elliptical machine, circuit training. Then I hit the free weights plus the weights machines. That's what I can think of right now. Let me know if you have any questions, I will be glad to help Sent from my Pixel XL using the BariatricPal App -
How do I manage to get enough protein daily!?
smyleetn replied to mandrey's topic in Protein, Vitamins, and Supplements
Unflavoured Protein one scoop 25 gr add to anything, cream Soup yogurt, pudding. Protein shake for breakfast and snack 30- soup with 25 gr I've already had 55 by lunch Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
@@Military Ma now that you are home are you full fluids vs clear? Strained cream soup with unsweetened Protein powder is my fav. Also when I first tried pudding or yogurt(with protein powder) it hurt I think cuz it was too thick so I added soy milk to make it thinner. Worked awesome. Fortunately nothing tastes bad to me ... yet lol is that a good thing or bad! straight Water I find hurts my tummy a bit not sure why. If I add crystal light or juice it's much better.

Calcium Supplements and Eating Dairy
Treadmillwalker posted a topic in Protein, Vitamins, and Supplements
I am not scheduled to see the dietician and my surgeon until 12/27 when I receive my second band fill. I love dairy and eat FF cottage cheese, FF Fage yogurt or good quality FF cheese daily without issue. Do I need to take a Calcium supplement? Has anyone discussed this with their nutritionist and what guidance did you receive? Banded 10/12/16 -
I'm one week tomorrow. I can't believe I was crying this time last week freaking out. I think I have one incision that may need to be looked at. Still take pain pills although cut it back to one instead or two. I've been driving and Christmas shopping to walk. . I do get tired too. I bought unflavoured Protein Powder that I mix in with my cream of something Soup (yes I strain it). That's 25 grams of Protein, add in a Premier Protein shake 30 grams and yogurt with protein powder another 25 then anything else is extra. Down 10 lbs since surgery not sure if that's good average ??

My plan has yogurt or Greek yogurt as a Protein supplement in addition to the shakes. I eat at least 1 a day with absolutely no problems. They even gave me yougurt in the hospital. Each plan is different. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

dyemond11 replied to AC3's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My surgery was 12/9 and I was sipping on a Protein shake the morning after. Yogurt the day after that. No pain, no nausea. Every plan is different. Are you suggesting she should go against her doctor's advice? In no way am I suggesting to go against Dr. Orders. Understood that all Doctors orders are different, but every gastric sleeve is the same. I was making a comparison of the experiences. Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App -

What was your diet/food plan one month out from RnY?
Martha Parker-mcneal replied to Rachel412's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
it has been 10 years but this is very close to my old plan ( I pulled it out) it was about 3-4 months before I could really tolerate very much solid foods. I started with adding one thing at a time as different people tolerated different things. I still can not eat beef except ground and real tough meats stick with chicken thighs as they are more moist and lots of fish. deli ham and turkey and of course yogurt and eggs and cottage cheese ( love all kinds of cheese) I can only eat about 2 or 3 bites of any desert before getting sick. sweets have never agreed with my pouch. no raw veggies or salads either. take it very slow it sucks but you will do so much better and will appreciate it in the long run. good luck -
Chewable Protein Tablets

Have you tried any of the clear Protein drinks like Isopure or Syntrax nectar? Or putting unflavored Protein powder in things like chicken broth or Jello or pudding or yogurt? -
I just had my surgery 12/12
dyemond11 replied to AC3's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had my surgery 12/12 as well. The dry heaves is the Worst!!!! It seemed constant for me until after I got my swallow test and they gave me some magic meds to take it away. I've been in pain, but my Dr. had his patients up walking after surgery. We had to do at least twenty laps total around the hospital wing. Walking makes the pain feel a little better. It helps prevent blood clots, but also will move the gas around if you have any. Walking has become my best friend in relieving pain other than pain meds. I have 3 incisions and one incision for drainage total 4. The one on the right is very painful as that's where the majority of the work was done. It hurt so bad I couldn't even move after surgery. I sleep sitting up elevated by pillows and when I'm in pain between meds I walk. You said your eating yogurt? I'm on Clear Liquids the first 3 days don't know if that could b making your pain worst. -

kayshabear replied to AC3's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I too had my surgery Monday, and I just hurt all over from all the pressure. I came home last night around 6:30pm and did nothing but sleep until almost 11am. I am trying to get liquids in but it is so hard.. I have barely gotten half a bottle of Water down and 2 tiny bites of yogurt. I try to walk when I can though. I hope it gets better too. The dry heaves are terrible. Sent from my ZTE A2017U using the BariatricPal App -
I was aloud to have yogurt pre and post. Pre was up to five days then on my 6/7 day it was liquid only. Post it was on plan 2 as my full liquid. I started that two days after sugery. I could not eat just yogurt it was too thick. Chobani is my favorite. I bought the mixed berry because there is no fruit. And then just took milk and made it super creamy and I got about 4 red cups out of it. It was much easier to tolerate. I would walk around my apartment complex with my frozen yogurt! :-) it was hard the first two weeks to drink stuff even Water everything made me burp and feel like it was in my throat except for yogurt and frozen sugar free Jello that i made into frozen pop's.

Thank you Carrie for that advice. In regards to yogurt did you have that post open? Or did you have to wait a week? That is a GREAT idea!! Sent from my SM-G935T using the BariatricPal App

Y'all! I just bought myself an Instant Pot!
KristenVSG2014 replied to LipstickLady's topic in Regular foods (stage 4)
Have you ever made a pot roast in the crock pot and your potatoes don't have much flavor in the middle? A pressure cooker pushes the flavor INTO the potatoes and they end up tasting like the meat. The same with the meat. It pushes the flavor of the vegetables into the meat. I will never go back to the crock pot. I'm giving it away to my mom so she can use it on camping trips. (It also makes rice and yogurt. I don't eat much rice since it swells and makes me miserable but that could be a useful feature for your other family members.) HW 290+/SW 261/GW 160/CW 159 -
Y'all! I just bought myself an Instant Pot!
Rachel412 replied to LipstickLady's topic in Regular foods (stage 4)
No. It can slow cook but also heats up high enough to sear meats. You can use it the same as your stove top, plus it can steam and pressure cook, plus mine makes yogurt. It does other stuff too. It's handy! -
Thanks everyone I will try upping my Water intake I can't up my calories by much bc I'm only allowed to have refried Beans cottage cheese ricotta cheese yogurt and scrambled eggs. But my diet advances Friday. So right now it's alittle hard to get much more calories in. Thanks everyone for the advice much appreciated!!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

My surgery wes scheduled at 7:30 in the morning I was out in 24 hours. That is strange he would want you in there for 3 days. I was on liquid diet w/ cooked veggies and yogurt for 5 days, days 6/7 It was liquid only. You will barely get any sleep they check your vitals every two hours. I didn't switch to decaf. They only reason is acid and dehydration, but I drink enough 64oz a day to keep hydrated and I am on anti acids anyways. I have 1 cup only and that is really all I care to have. I have had no issues at all with it. I know other people that did and ended up with ulcers. So its your choice. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Awwwee Congrats! The best advice I can tell you. Don't push yourself to eat. Its hard. I am on plan 5 starting this Friday. I still heavily relay on Protein shakes and yogurt. Buy the small plastic red cups, mix your yogurt with fat free milk or 1 percent and freeze them into frozen yogurt. As soon as you are stable after surgery start walking around and push yourself more and more to walk. Your stomach gurgles and makes all sorts of noises and you will burp it feels better after walking. You don't have to go fast. I was walking every hour instead of the recommended 2 hours and My surgeon was very happy with that. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

How has your family changed since your WLS?
rolosmom7 replied to NWJill's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
No kids yet, so it's easier. Everything used to be around Pasta. Now it's meat and a veggie. Either on the grill or in the crock pot. Other than that I don't make meals. I have greek yogurt and a p3 for Breakfast and snack, and my work has fresh Soups daily, salad bar, etc. They'll even make you sushi. So chicken salad and such is easily accessible. We save a ton of money not eating out 4 or 5 days a week. -
Doctor Prescribed Shakes
newbirth1230 replied to newbirth1230's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My shakes (unjury) cost a little over a dollar a serving and they tasted pretty good too. I got the canisters instead of the packets.The thing that I also don't like is the fact its powder form so I have to mix them. That is so inconvenient!!Sent from my SM-G935T using the BariatricPal App Not really. You have lots more control of the texture. You them with raw juice and ice instead of milk and control the sweetness. And best of all you have the option of unflavored powder that you can mix with soup, yogurt and cottage cottage cheese to boost the Protein without changing the taste.Ok I will definitely try that..can I mix fruits with it? ????
