What Is Your Beverage of Choice?
cbonet replied to Alex Brecher's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
It's super easy and fun. I've been doing it for years now. First you get 1 tablespoon of kefir grains (can buy it from Amazon or have a friend send to you since it really multiplies hehe), you add that tablespoon to 1 or 2 cups of milk, leave it out at room temperature for 24 hrs, strain the grains off, and you have kefir. You reuse the grains over and over. I still have the original grains from years ago. To the strained off kefir, you can put it in smoothies, and use just like yogurt but it has waaaay more probiotics than yogurt, more strains to protect you from illnesses. Then with the strained kefir grains, you just add that into new milk and you do it over and over. It's easier to watch the video below as I'm not ept enough to explain it hehe. It's a great hobby too! Here is my favorite youtube video (it healed this girl from Crohn's disease): Can you do this with almond milk? -

I feel like I get up every single day and say to myself 'yep, still can't do that stuff anymore'. It's honestly day by day by day...and if I screw up one day, the next day is a clean sheet until I choose to do something to screw it up again. I realized after my surgery that I used to head straight to the kitchen to get something to eat the minute I walked in the door. And I did it just now. Of course, I haven't already overeaten all day long and I didn't get a bagel or a bowl of ice cream, I got a yogurt, but the habit is still the same. I HAVE to break it. Be kind to yourself...you didn't dive head first in to a vat of Chunky Monkey, right

So, does using a smoothie count as liquids? I use one scoop of powder, 8 oz of skim milk, one cup of ice and a few table spoons of greek yogurt. How should I tabulate the liquids for this, I am always under and hoping using smoothie will help.

Can I have regular yogurt while on liquid diet Sent from my HTC Desire 626s using the BariatricPal App Can I have regular yogurt with liquid diet Sent from my HTC Desire 626s using the BariatricPal App My doc says yes, but it has to be without fruit or other additions. vanilla, key lime pie, lemon, etc. are all fine.

Can I have regular yogurt while on liquid diet Sent from my HTC Desire 626s using the BariatricPal App Can I have regular yogurt with liquid diet Sent from my HTC Desire 626s using the BariatricPal App Check your plan or ask your surgeon or nut, since it depends on where you had your surgery. I would go with plain greek yogurt diluted with milk, add sweetener if needed. (if yogurt is on your plan) Nilla -
Yeah. That is slow. Are you sleeve or bypass? Best way to up your Protein intake is to add more powder to your shake. For one scoop of a "flavored" powder, I add an additional half scoop of an unflavored, such as unjury. So my shake goes from 24 to 35 g of protein (that's using Water not milk. Milk increases the protein count, as well, but I HATE milky protein drinks!) Add one more shake at 24 g and you're at 59g protein for the day- and around 300 calories give or take. The rest you can get with your meats, dairy, or however you choose. Remember. All Proteins are not created equally. Provided you don't have dietary restrictions, utilize a good whey PROTEIN ISOLATE based powder. Plant based are fine if you're vegan, but they are just not as readily utilized. Consider eggs- two scrambled or poached eggs - that is 14 g of HIGH QUALITY protein and 150 cal. Now you're at 73g of protein for the day. A serving of Greek yogurt like Oikos Triple Zero adds ANOTHER 15g and 120 cal. So now you're at 88g of protein for the day, and 570 cal. See how that works? You can get your protein requirements in and have room for some extra calories from things like almonds (plain!!) or some nut butters. Your veggies too. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Which brand and where did u buy it Sent from my HTC Desire 626s using the BariatricPal App GENEPRO unflavored Protein powder seems to be popular. You can mix it to almost anything. Just be careful not to heat it, since it can lose some of it's potency. You can add it to warm broth but don't put the protein in the microwave. It also mixes to cold stuff like milk or yogurt. Use unsweetened almond milk if you have problems with lactose. Nilla -

I bought the GENEPRO. I'm 2 weeks post op and using it to supplement. I'm drinking premier Protein shake, eating cottage cheese and Greek yogurt to get protein as well. I'm not sure if it's a scam as I have read both sides. How can you tell who is telling the truth. I will ask dietician at my one month post op appointment. But I figure at this point as long as it's giving me some extra protein and doesn't have too much taste it's better than nothing. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I have Soups and stir in unflavored Protein powders as well. I'm avoiding yogurt as I don't tolerate it well. -

RonnieBob replied to kblanc's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm 29 days out with my RNY. During the early phase, I relied on Premier Protein shake, EAS Myoplex and Oikos Triple Zero Yogurt for protein. Still using a combination of them to get an early boost of protein to start my day. If I use the Premier Protein Shake and an Oikos Triple Zero Yogurt to start my day, I have just taken in 45 protein units. If I use the Myoplex, I drink 1/2 in the morning and 1/2 later in the day with an Oikos Triple Zero Yogurt and it gives me 36 protein units to start my day. Hope that helps. -
OK I'm 6days post op and I feel like crap today didn't get much sleep,woke up nauseous ????, I don't know whether it's gas or I'm actually full when drinking Water, drinkable yogurt or Protein, not getting enough of what I need in because I'm scared of dumping, and last but not least I'm so lost on what to have protein with if my Dr told me to be cautious with milk????

What to do when you a test for something sweet
lizardqueen replied to baby girl pa's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Check out HALO Top ice cream and Eat Me Guilt Free. Both have lots of high protein low carb choices. I also use polaners no sugar added jelly I add a tablespoon to Greek plain yogurt or go 1% cottage cheese and it gives you the sweet flavor for only 10 calories and like 5 carbs. The have several flavors. Also the oikos triple zero yogurts. They have salted caramel, mixed berry, chocolate, coffee and many other flavors, help with protein and will give you the sweet kick you need. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
When did you start purée?
Julie norton replied to Shell Renewed's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
I'm guessing peanut butter is a bit too thick yet. Tempting because the protein count is good... I would think yogurt is closer to the texture advised, but each doc is so different . -

Is this yogurt okay to eat? Nutritional info below.

Thank you! I bought some Greek yogurt today. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
my doc has me on full liquids first 3 weeks. I'm so sick of it too. I'm allowed yogurt and Soups etc. today was my first day back at work and I ordered a Soup from a local chinese restaurant (chicken and noodle soup) told them to hold the noodles, hold the chicken lol. just had the broth...it was heaven! so good. Mainly because it was different than what I've been eating at home (home made soups i'm now sick of). i can't wait to have puree's and soft foods next week.

Protein Supplements after Sleeve Surgery
cbonet replied to Kaycee1971's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Try using an enhanced protein milk with your shake. I've been using organic almond milk with 10 grams of protein in each cup. It gives you the rctea protein and changes the taste of the protein a little. You could also add some good greek yogurt to your shake . -
Balloon Removed and Feelin' Fine! :-)

Shirleyd90 Is the diarrhea something new? After my RNY ( not sure which surgery you had but...) I became Lactose Intolerant. Which caused me to have bad diarrhea. I was on Premier Protein drinks for 2 weeks Preop and 4 weeks Postop!! I had diarrhea so bad, and my Surgeon finally told me to try some other protein because it was more than likely the Premier drinks!! Funny thing is I can't drink milk but I can do yogurt, cheese, sour cream and Half and Half. I have to use Almond milk or I get the back door trots every time. Just a suggestion. -

You just out of surgery? That's great... I started about where you were and was -24 at 2 weeks... great job!!Thanks! Actually I had surgery on May 27th! I started out at 540 a year ago! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Wow!! I would love to have that kind of loss 5 months later -- can you give me an idea what you're doing? (cals, carbs, Protein, typical foods, etc.) Well I've actually been having a lot of complications unfortunately. I had a picc line in to infuse TPN every night to give me enough fluids and nutrients. Last Monday I was admitted to the hospital with a 103.9 fever amd my second blood infection. They removed the picc line and said we will stop the TPN now. I'm getting my gallbladder removed tomorrow (I have stones). I have been eating around 600-750 calories a day. I drink 2-3 premier Protein shakes a day to get my protein in. I try to eat 4-6 small meals a day. Some examples of those meals I eat are a yogurt, or 1/2-1 egg and 1-1 1/2 piece of bacon, 2 oz meat (like half a burger, some chicken breast, pork tenderloin, steak) and 1-2 oz veggie or side (spaghetti squash, green Beans, Brussel sprouts, squash, broccoli, cauliflower, potato, or salad). I cook the meat in different flavors like Mexican, Asian, Italian, anything I'm interested in that night! I get a lot of recipes from the skinny taste or Emily bites website. I also use weight watcher cookbooks. A lot of them have pretty low calorie recipes that are actually really delicious! I don't really count my carbs but I do have some throughly the day. I also snack on some popcorn from Trader Joe's (white cheddar baconesque, white cheddar, sour cream and onion) I can only eat half a cup and that's only between 35-40 calories!
