Aw man.. I was looking forward to mixing up my greek yogurt with defrosted mango chunks from Trader Joe again. Well.. I'll still give it a go when the time comes, but I'll proceed with caution.

I eat two egg whites, fried in Pam, with no fat cheese at breakfast. I always eat 3oz of whatever meat at the other two meals rounded out with 1-2 oz of (green beans, roasted squash). I have three snacks each day out of: triple zero yogurt, two lifts cheese sticks or a shake made of 4 strawberries, 1/2 cup blueberries, 6 oz water and a scoop of protein powder. I’m at ~ 1,000 cals a day, but I workout quite a bit.

newbie99 replied to SugeilyMunoz's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Grilled shrimp, chicken, steak and veggies. I try to stay away from processed foods in general. Greek yogurt, popcorn, and Popsicles for snacks. Occasional brown rice. -

I bought some at Trader Joes yesterday. So, just put them in a yogurt, or along those lines?

So just like our foot size varies from others, our stomach sizes vary. My husbands stomach is bigger than mine. When they take out 85% of a big stomach, what's left is bigger than 85% of a small stomach, right? Sleeved on the same day as me, he can reliably hold 4 oz of solid Protein at a time, I can reliably hold 2 oz of solid protein at a time. We are only 5 weeks out, but it's very predictable. I suggest for those of who who wonder about their stomach capacity, don't worry about yogurt, Soup, liquid, saltines, bread, etc. Test it by eating dense protein and you will know for sure.

I am ready to try yogurts again. I know Greek yogurt is the best option but I can't find any that are low carb enough. My favorite brand is Cabot and chobani but they seem to have too much sugar... Like 10-30 grams. What is everyone using? Thanks

Started my diet today, feeling pretty good because I can have fruit and veggies and yogurt! 10 days till surgery and I am getting very anxious. But nonetheless, excited! -
The foam vomit is the worst! Gross! Thanks for the papaya enzyme tip. I will be buying some ASAP. Wendy's chili is great for me. I've also discovered Fage yogurt which has 28 g of protein per cup. I got it at Walmart. SD:1/28/13 HW:358 DOS:338 CW:310

This pre op diet is killing me
ShrinkingPeach replied to Tracan's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I did the pre-op diet for 2 weeks and yes by a certain point I had to make myself eat and drink. I had to do Protein shakes, sf pudding, light yogurt, Gatorade and Water. Not much variety there and everything was sweet. Maybe try spicing things differently for variety? I couldn't wait to get to the surgery date for it to be over but now I am on a week of 3 Protein Shakes a day and sf popsicles...lol Just keep your eyes on the prize and enjoy the weight you are losing as a by product of the pre-op diet...they are pounds that you are ahead of the game for after surgery. Good luck and hang in there!! -
3week full liqud post op diet
Ola Tess replied to Goodnurseg's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I tried to stay away from sugar stuff but my full liquids included sf pudding, Greek yogurt and thinned cream of wheat and I put Splenda on it. I was mostly Afraid of how sugar would make me feel - possible dumping but it doesn't bother me much if I have a little ice cream or a cookie. But I try to stay away. I moved to puréed food at wks 3 but was disgusted at that by second day so just started eating reg food chewed Alot! At 5 wks now I can eat Anything in sm portions! Good luck -
November buddies where are you?
brittanix0 replied to soonerorlater's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I had my surgery on 11/22. I got out of hospital on 11/24. They kept me the extra day because of pain. They wanted to be sure it was gas pain, which it was. I've been eatting greek yogurt, my protein shake and popsicles. Been kerping everything down. Its to cold to walk outside so i walk laps n my house. My first appointment is on December 2nd. I am on full liquids right now. I havent had a bowel movement. I have tons of gas. -
Per my doc eat slowly until you feel satified. Although in the pureed stage, I was told not to worry about calories or protein, but make sure and get all my water in. Liquids went down easy for me from day one. I think I started with a 1/4 cut but it didnt take long until I could handle a 1/2 a cup. Keep in mind the diet really doesnt start until you can eat solids. Once there high cal liquids are taboo. I also found that creamed soups did not sit well. I did better on low sodium vegtable soups ran through the blender and greek yogurt.

I need help... I am getting so very frustrated... My dreaded 3 week stall has lasted 31 days. This is getting ridiculous. The scale has been playing with 2 pounds for 31 days... Did I mention I have NOT LOST WEIGHT in 31 days!!! Here is my "typical Day" Breakfast- Protein shake Drink a large Crystal light. ( I add about 28 ounces of water with one of those tiny packets) Morning snack is Yogurt Lunch is a slice of roasted turkey with some mustard, or maybe a bit of cheese. (2-3 bites) afternoon snack is another protein shake DInner is sometimes caned chicken with cheese, or some refried beans with cheese Then evening snack is my Homemade pudding pops... (Sugar free pudding with double protein powder put in popscicle molds) What am I doingwrong!!???!!! -
So nice to hear from other July sleevers. I had my surgery on July 1. I have only lost 6 pounds since then and am feeling frightened. But on the other hand I have lost 25 since the first of June. I am having trouble getting my protein shakes down and have switched to premade ones and find them easier. I am still so worried to start " real food". I am and emotional eater and need to deal with the reasons I over eat. I move on to puree on Wednesday and bought baby food and yogurt. Anyone have any other suggestions? Congratulations to all of you have started this brave new journey.

I was, but I was allowed to have sf jello, strained cream soup and low fat sugar free yogurt too! The fourth day was the most difficult. I did my diet for two weeks and it was over my birthday and the Fourth of July, which I did all the BBQing... I ate a bowl of pudding with extra protein powder while everyone was eating BBQ!!! Definitely not fun but I did not want any complications. I lost 22lbs on that liquid diet and my surgeon told me after the surgery how nice my liver looked. You can do it. It also prepares you for after. I have to eat the same after surgery until my follow up appointment which is on the 30th. I had my surgery on the 14th. I am definitely looking forward to some real food but I will say I'm not really that hungry and right after surgery everything even water tasted horrible. -
Newbie looking for Oct sleevers!
AgentShepard replied to Marielbx's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
El, one thing that really helped me was tweaking the Protein to alleviate what was making it gross to me. Too thick? Add more Water. Smells funky? Add a fragrant ingredient like PB2 or fruit. Tastes bad? Try some sugar-free syrup. Tired of sweets? Stir some unflavored into a Soup. So for instance, I would have a bowl of oatmeal that normally contained 7g protein and add a scoop of unflavored protein to bring it up to 17. Then I'd add a tablespoon of sugar free syrup to help mask the protein flavor in a complementary flavor to the oatmeal - caramel in banana oatmeal or maple oatmeal, vanilla in strawberry, etc. I did the same thing with greek yogurt - taking a 12g cup of yogurt (already great) to 22g! Now that I'm on purees it's easier because I can have pureed meat, Beans, etc. The variety really helps me feel more normal, especially when my husband and I can now eat the same stuff, albeit in different form. Hope this helps! Hang in there! -

OK so I just checked and of course there is no siggis yogurt to be found in my area. I'm still on the road in Texas and heading home tomorrow. I'm so ready to get home... I'm tired of unjury skim milk and Protein Water. I'm ready to play with some recipes. I need a little flavor in my life. Everything has gone as well as it could have. I continue to feel blessed with my recovery and the process in general. I haven't weighed since before my surgery so I'm excited to see if I've lost any weight or if I'm hanging onto it like I have in the past. As excited as I am to continue this journey at home I must confess that I am more excited to see, hold,kiss and sleep beside the wonderful man that is My Better Half!! Best Wishes to all who are about to embark on this journey!!! -
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. -

It gets easier to get the protein in, I can still only do premade shakes, and add unflavored isopure to everything I can pudding, yogurt, tomato soup . . . It is available on Amazon and 26 grams pure spoonful. Hope that helps. -

I guess it's different for everyone, I'm on the purreed stage (starting the 4th week today, Yay!) I can get down only half of 1 scrambled egg with salmon purée even it's very tasty but I really cannot. I eat very slowly with a teaspoon, chew well and wait a little after swallowing to see if it already filled in the stomach and stop at that point. I practically can eat greek yogurt with purée fruit or scrambled egg in the amount of 2 full tablespoons. On the aother hand I can easily eat around 1/2 cup of liquid soup. I don't think the spasm thing is a good sign, maybe you should try to eat smaller bite and slower and drink water a little bit at a time. See if ithe stomach will agree with you. -

Canker sores and ulcers in the mouth can be caused from bacteria changes from diet change. I would when possible seek out active culture yogurts. Activa or any that say Active bacteria culture -
What to eat before early morning workout???
Stacy160 replied to BrittanyAnn1's topic in Fitness & Exercise
When I was running a lot in the summer (waaaaaaayyy back in the good ol' days... ), my favorite thing to have was Greek yogurt. I knew I was getting fuel, it didn't make me feel full, and just sat in there so nice and comfortably with no issues at all. Plain, with a little vanilla extract and Splenda. I'm planning on getting on the treadmill a little later today and I don't have Greek, but I do have Kroger Carbmasters (which, if you're not familiar with it, is like any typical "diet" yogurt, thinner and not real substantial, but good) so I think I'll see how I feel with that. -
I mean the small pieces that are in yogurt. Everything says yogurt is fine but not with fruit pieces.

I eat Wendy's chili, McDonalds fruit and yogurt parfait w/o granola. What I LOVE is Arby's roasted Chicken club. It is deli roasted chicken, bacon, lettuce, tomato, and sauce. I get it w/o the bun and half the sauce. Has 20 grams of protein. I eat it for dinner and lunch. I can't do bread yet at all.
