I use Premier chocolate shake I add half a banana Greek yogurt and Peanut Butter some ice and blend. 2 grams of sugar in the peanut butter only use a table spoon and one shake it makes enough for a few days. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G930A using the BariatricPal App

My docs told me to take 60ml every 15 minutes until I feel pressure or fullness, which has been perfection. I've got down probably 50-60oz today, and i'm on day two. I would say standing up while drinking helps, get the gas rolling out of you. You shouldn't worry too much about protein until you start your next phase, but every doc is different. I'll be rolling into my liquid foods phase starting sunday, I cannot wait for drinkable yogurt and protein shakes!!

Having trouble getting enough calories in a day
Ele marie replied to Thecloude1's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I drink the Protein drinks with half a banana Greek yogurt and a tablespoon of Peanut Butter all blended up. But like you I can't eat a lot of anything. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G930A using the BariatricPal App -
Should I be worried about Protein? Calories? Eating on a regular schedule? I'm doing 2 Protein shakes a day adding oikos triple zero yogurt to them to get in my 60+g of protein. Then having eggs, cottage cheese, or refried Beans in between. And getting in 48+oz of Water

No idea likely not enough I am trying to replace the egg and cottage cheese with the Protein drink. I do put Greek yogurt in it when I can find some under 10 grams of sugar which is been really hard. My husband tryst to get me to eat a little deli meat. I like to eat the same foods every day. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G930A using the BariatricPal App

Fat free, low far, light or regular?
LipstickLady replied to FabFemale's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm a full fat kinda girl. Real cheese, real butter, real salad dressing, real mayo, real sour cream. I do drink skim milk because I like it, and I buy light Greek yogurt because the kids prefer it. Full fat tastes better and keeps me full longer. Much more satisfying. -
I need to do this, no matter what
Micoxv replied to Micoxv's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I have a hard time eating anything else than protein shakes and / or Quest bars. I can eat salmon as long as it not over cooked. Yogurt also goes well. Everything else is either leading to acidity or a trip to the bathroom. Cereals for breakfast is also ok. I don't know if this is related to stress as I am under an unbelievable workload lately. I take my vitamins but I feel exhausted al the time. I did not go to the gym at all this week, which means that my weight did not change (or not much). A week to forget.

@@tnf0920 I have lost about 220 lbs. My standard eating plan in weight loss mode is the same now as it was 2 years ago, I think. I drop back into weight loss mode occasionally when I find I've strayed out of my comfort range. I am in weight loss mode right now! Here is my plan: 4 small meals each day + 1 snack & 1 protein shake. Breakfast: 3 oz chicken breast Lunch: 3 oz chicken breast + 1.5 oz chopped green veggies (asparagus, artichoke hearts, green beans, etc.) + 1/2 T. light salad dressing Dinner: 1.5 oz roasted veggies (broccoli, brussels sprouts, cauliflower -- something like that), + 2-3 oz fish or maybe 2 oz fish + 1 egg. Sometimes I mash up the fish with some avocado or frozen chopped spinach or kale and some sauce, such as curry sauce, and bake it in the oven with the egg on top. After dinner: this is my "dessert" meal -- Greek yogurt, and a very small amount of nuts and dried fruit. Snack: small apple Protein shake: I use a half serving of protein powder and mix with unsweetened vanilla cashew milk.

Get unflavored protein powder and add to soup, yogurt or even water. I am pre-surgery and already hate protein shakes (pre-made).

Why do post-op diet stages differ so much?
judanna77 replied to Epo-VSG's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
When I first met with my surgeon, I asked him what research he had used to come up with his post-op guidelines, and why there was such variation in the post-op guidelines from different surgeons. He laughed and said that there really wasn't any research, and that it seemed like most of the guidelines out there were based on an abundance of caution- like no really knows the best time for moving to soft foods, so most surgeons have a really long liquid phase just to be sure. He said that when he and his partners formed their surgical group, they each had different post-op guidelines that they were used to, and that they just flipped a coin to decide what would become the guidelines for the group practice. Then he said that all that really mattered to him was that patients stay on Stage 1 (Clear liquids plus Protein shakes) until their first post-op appointment with him. But after that, he was fine with advancing the stages quicker than his written guidelines, as long as the patient proceeded with caution. You will get a lot of advice on here to follow your surgeon's plan exactly. You're not going to go wrong following that advice. But it also doesn't make much logical sense to me- there are tons of different post-op plans out there, but somehow your own surgeon's plan is the only right one for you? I say that in the end, you are responsible for your own health. I personally don't feel like you've taken an unacceptable risk by straying from your surgeon's plan with liquified, thinned-out chili and yogurt. It's not like you were eating solid food or anything else that might put undue pressure on your staple-line. In the end, it's up to you to decide. -
I'm 10 days post op. band removal and sleeve. rough couple of days. 2 days in hospital. no vomiting but lots of heartburn/nausea. hard to tell if hunger pains or nausea. salty foods go down better loving tomato soup. on pureed diet. Breakfast is worst, as I luv my coffee. taking Prilosec 20 30 minutes before breakfast. didn't work today,lightheaded/nausea. greek yogurt goes down ok and dry chicken soup mix. I am very sick of the Protein drinks but know that is a guaranteed protein.

I THINK I MAY HAVE FOUND A HEALTHY SWEET SNACK
reree6898 replied to MzStockton's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
If I want something frozen I will freeze a Greek yogurt and it fills that want for ice cream. -
I don't have a problem with Arctic Zero. I eat the ones with only 5g of sugar per serving. I have many more issues with lactose and since it's lactose free, it works for me. However, my favorite "ice cream" is mixing nonfat greek yogurt with frozen blueberries and stevia. The frozen blueberries turn the yogurt into a gelato sort of consistency. It's freaking delicious.

Why do post-op diet stages differ so much?
Epo-VSG posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was sleeved on 5/3, and have been on the post-op stage 2 Full liquid diet stage for a little over a week. Had my first post-op appt today, praying I could move on to purees, but my doctor has a blanket 3 weeks of stage 2 rule. I'm getting more than enough Protein and fluids, staying under 800 calories, and having no issue with the supplements. I only get head hunger at dinner time. I just want to taste different foods. What's the difference between full Liquid and super pureed to the point of practical liquification? If I pureed chili until it was completely smooth (thanks to the vitamix!), and it was just as thin as a thinned cream Soup, what's the problem? I'm frustrated because I told my doctor I had eaten Apple sauce and Greek yogurt and he completely flipped out on me. Maybe he didn't hear me say I thinned and processed it until it was practically a drink... But now I'm confused. Is it OK for me to liquify things at this stage or not? How come surgeons progress people at different time periods? It hardly seems custom to the person and their recovery, but rather a doctor decides the plan that all of the doctor's patients must follow. I'm mainly focused on the medical risks. Is liquified chili sauce more dangerous than strained cream of chicken soup? Sent from my Nexus 7 using the BariatricPal App -

Breakfast ideas.
Inner Surfer Girl replied to imala74's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Oatmeal with chocolate protein powder and pb2. Greek yogurt. Cottage cheese. Leftovers. Egg mcmuffin with an extra egg and half or none of the muffin. -
Plain oatmeal (add sweetener) and some FF Fairlife milk, turkey bacon, Greek yogurt, Apple w/ peanut butter (natural or Jif Whips), Yams, cheese. Oh yeah, and plain FF Fage yogurt with PB2 powder, tastes pretty good, tons of protein. All of this depends on the phase you're in..

My "go to" breakfast choices are ground turkey, pesto and cheese, cubed ham, an egg and cheese; leftover dinner from the night befor. If I'm going for a run, I typically have 1/4 steel cut oats mixed with 1/3 milk, half a carton of greek yogurt and a tbs of Peanut Butter. I agree that breakfast doesn't need to be traditional "breakfast" food.

3 weeks out, what are you eating?
crazyplantlady replied to tiffanymarie6997's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My favorite thing was Beans, cheese, and salsa, microwaved. Amy's refried black beans is so good! yogurt is good too, lots of Protein. avocado smoothies are good too - avocado, milk if you're allowed, and a little brown sugar, in a blender. can use some other type of milk that is allowed if dairy is not. good luck! -

lifeofblair replied to CowgirlJane's topic in Regular foods (stage 4)
I'm picky about my chicken salad, but I did find a pre made on at target with Greek yogurt, cranberries and almonds. It's in .5 cup servings, so I can grab and go!
