ginabee38 replied to trekker954's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
Also, try different brands of Greek yogurt. I think Oikos has a better and less strong taste. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using the BariatricPal App -
Post op 10/26/16 sleeve
simpsongrad replied to Rae5148's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hi - I was sleeved on the 25th. No real issues since except had to spend two days in the hospital due to incredible nausea. Once I stopped taking the pain meds, I was fine. I am on the full liquids now and am only really drinking double milk. I can also have greek yogurt, strained Soups and pudding but none of those appeals to me at all. I have a call into my nut to see if I am ok since I am not getting quite enough Protein. Looking forward to moving on to pureed/soft foods. Would love to stay in touch with others too. -
i need help. I am on the soft food phase of the post op diet. I can no longer do Protein shakes as they all taste like cotton candy and make me sick. At this point im on oatmeal and Soup puree. I also have a texture problem so i cant even do yogurt, pudding or Jello. I dunno what else to do. Im trying to get foods i can eat but im clueless. Can anyone provide suggestions? I will be getting baby food and trying mash potatoes tomorrow but im clueless. Any help would be much appreciated!

How do you get in all you food and work full time? What is your eating schedule
theantichick replied to LittleLizzieLilliput's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I pack 3-4 small meals for when I'm at work. P3 snack packs are the bomb, as are greek yogurts. I always keep a cup (I love my Tervis 24oz cup) of ice Water beside me. I set a reminder on my phone to eat every 3 hours. I can eat at my desk while I work. It's gotten a lot better now that I'm on solid foods and can eat 4-6oz at a time. -
How do you get in all you food and work full time? What is your eating schedule
stacyrg2 replied to LittleLizzieLilliput's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm an attorney and work long hours. What works for me is the following. I bring a bottle of propel with me in the car and try to drink as much of it as possible on my drive to the office. I bring my breakfast with me, and will eat it as soon as I get to the office (usually between 8-8:30). I wait 30 minutes and begin drinking. If I stopped for coffee on the way in, I'll drink that and count it as my mid morning snack. I also have a 30oz cup with a straw (!!) I fill it and won't eat anything else until I get that sucker down. Many times I'm not hungry for a mid morning snack (particularly if I have the coffee) so I fill up with liquid. I usually have lunch around 1:00. 30 minutes later I start on more liquid. I usually have a snack around 3:30-4:00 (typically sliced deli meat) and I'll have another snack (either almonds or a greek yogurt) before I leave for the gym. Fill in the rest of the day drinking. Since I work long hours, I eat dinner relatively late, but that means I don't feel the need for a snack. If I have a nighttime snack, it's usually a popsicle or a fudgesicle. I find things work much better, for me, if I stick to a schedule. Eating like this insures I get all my Protein in (85-100g a day) and Fluid in (90-120 oz a day) Like I said, this schedule works for me. I'm maintaining a 130 lb loss eating this way. I find the weekend much more difficult because it is definitely less structured. -

Upper Respiratory Infection AKA cold...
Kaitlin Ashley posted a topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Hey! This is my first time posting here. I had my surgery about a month ago, and everything was fine up until three days ago, when I started having cold symptoms. I'm all stuffed up, my head feels super heavy, I have a sore throat, and I'm super nauseous. It's been going around my house, so I'm not concerned that it's anything but a cold, and I've been taking Dayquil, which has helped a bit. However, I cannot keep anything down. I keep gagging on and/or throwing up all the food I try to eat, even yogurts and stuff that I've had no trouble with before. Even water's become difficult to drink. I'm wondering if the post-nasal drip is causing an excess amount of mucous in my stomach, and because it's so small, it's making me incredibly nauseous. I'm worried I'm not getting enough to eat/not getting enough protein, and I'm not sure what to do. Anybody else have this problem? -
6 weeks post op. What should I be eating.
Travelher replied to Coley831's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
i"m in week 5 and not eating lettuce or raw veggies, I have tried cucumbers (skinned) and that worked well with some hummus, but it is a softer less fibrous veggie, tomatoes will probably work for me as well, but haven't felt the need to try it. My Dietitian is fine with me having soft foods at this point (not necessarily purees). eg ground meats work well for me as long as they are moist (so I have made chili, stuffed peppers etc). i have have had 2 oz of chicken thigh with a low fat gravy and it worked well. any meat portions I'm keeping to 2 oz (particularly if dense like salmon sashimi or chicken). if my meal had ground beef I keep it to around 1/2 cup and i stop when I feel satiated. I'm having cottage cheese several times a week. My diet introduces fruit (as a carb portion) at the purees stage. I have a 1/2 banana in my morning Protein shake. that is the extent of my fruit consumption in a day. I have pureed and strained berries and added a tablespoon to my cottage cheese to sweeten it. if i liked yogurt I would have done that with yogurt as well. keep in mind I had a revision so my pouch is bigger than most bypass patients so I understand that were I may be comfortable with 2 oz of meat a regular bypass patient may be full with 1. Bottom line, follow what your doctor has given you, with the caveat that if you don't think you are ready for something yet..wait. eg. I tried a hard boiled egg in a pinch at work for a snack when I ran out of shakes...ugh...too dense..I didn't feel sick but it felt like it was still sitting in my stomach hours later, so i'm sticking to poached for now. I'm in no rush to try raw veggies and lettuce though I really miss salad. I'm satisfied with the variety of foods i'm eating for now so I'll probably wait until 3+months to try it, I will have to see how the other things I'm slowly introducing and trying go. -

Greek Yogurt IS Sour Cream!
jessgro610 replied to jessgro610's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Love the idea of using it foe salad dressing. I love "creamy" dressings but I won't them anymore due to calories/fat. I'm going to try the greek yogurt with lemon and maybe some herbs as soon as I can eat salads. thanks for the idea! Add chia seeds for a Caesar feel!

I use Greek yogurt instead of sour cream in my guacamole, veggie dip, salad dressings, etc. Great protein source, same taste to me! -
Greek Yogurt IS Sour Cream!
highfunctioningfatman replied to jessgro610's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I've used Greek yogurt in place of a lot of different things and it works out quite well. Try it with lemon juice as a salad dressing, add lime and cilantro to put on cheese squares, in place of mayo for deviled eggs, I could go on but the point is get creative, it is fun! -
Some soft foods I have had: Rotisserie chicken Sashimi Greek no fat yogurt Lean deli slices Low fat cheese Slow cook crock pot Turkey chili (yummmmm) Cottage cheese Artichoke cooked soft. These and Premier Protein shakes are pretty much all I eat now while on soft foods. This week I am going to try and implement some soft fruit and more veggies.

Greek Yogurt IS Sour Cream!
Stephanie replied to jessgro610's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I make both at home and they are not the same. Greek yogurt is simply regular plain yogurt with the whey removed. You can make it yourself by buying a good plain yogurt and dumping it in a muslin lined colander (strainer) and setting it in a bowl to catch the whey for 24-48 hours. then put it back in the container and you have Greek yogurt. Sour cream is a culture you can make by using a bit of sour cream and half and half then let it sit and ferment for a day or two. One has a higher calorie content than the other. Both are pretty good! -
I am convinced! I have used it in the place of sour cream a few times now and can barely tell the difference!! Sent from my SM-N930V using the BariatricPal App

So I'm on soft foods for another 2 more weeks. However, I have been trying some other foods such as spaghetti squash, salmon, tuna etc. And I've been good. But for the most part I drink Protein shakes, eat Jello, Soup, cottage cheese, yogurt etc. The problem though is I don't feel satisfied and find myself getting hungry within 2 hours is that normal. Also, I've been getting this strange sharp pain in my upper chest that just hits hard and goes away. The funny thing is that when I feel this pain it seems to hurt straight down to my groin area. I know right? Maybe it's all in my head. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using the BariatricPal App

Im trying to add some variety. I don't like the Protein shakes either. But Premier Protein Shakes are about the closest I've come to tolerable shakes. Today I had: 8am: coffee, small 9am: Oikos Zero yogurt, 5 oz, eaten over an hour 11:30 half of a Quest bar 12:30 Half of a Premier Protein shake. (If you drink them really cold, they are ok-ish). 2:00 Tuna salad, 2 oz 3:00 cardio workout 4:00 1/4 cup cottage cheese 5:00 1 oz of rotisserie chicken (I keep fresh rotisserie chicken in the fridge when I want a quick fix) 7pm 2 oz of ground turkey with tomato sauce 10pm 2 or 3 oz of oikos yogurt (eating as I type this :-) 60 oz of Water drank throughout the day According to my fitness pal I consumed 75grams of protein and 28g carbs for the day.
