I had to ban Peanut Butter from my house. I was mixing it into yogurt on a daily basis and was cheating the serving size. I went back to PB2 and while I don't like it as much, it serves it's purpose. The only time I use actual peanut butter (natural) in when I mix it into my overnight oats before a long weekend run. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Okay - I too really like Peanut Butter - I use Justin's now when I want a little bit, as real stuff tastes better to me. Biggest thrill that I've found this is that Jiff makes "Peanut Powder" and OMG is it ever amazing! Much better macros than PB2, and better flavor to my taste. One Tablespoon is only 23 calories, .7 g fat, 1.3 carbs and 2.7 protein! (based off their 3 T serving size stats). I stir a tablespoon of it into my Fage yogurt with a bit of chocolate Protein Powder and sometimes a bit of stevia, and I'm a very happy girl, and it's really satisfying. It's in the section with the regular Jiff peanut butters in my store.

I am almost 4 months out and still struggle with it. If I eat without distractions, I find it much easier. I also eat with a baby spoon if it's yogurt or Soup. -

Pouch stretch?
StefanieSparklePants replied to StefanieSparklePants's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thanks for the replies. Just for some points of clarification. Do I habitually eat more than a 1/2 cup? No. It depends on the textures. Certain foods seem to pass through more easily. For example, yogurt doesnt give me the same feeling of fullness that it did at 5 months out. I'm pretty diligent about measuring out everything. The pouch seems more pliable, and that scares me to an extent. i'm well educated about my own surgery and I realize the honeymoon period is almost over for me. i'm still making good choices. Three, you made me feel a lot better knowing someone is feeling the same way around month six! Thanks again! -
Hi everyone, I'm new to this! My surgery is scheduled for 3/23. However, I'm on a two week pre-op diet consisting of: • Breakfast - Protein shake • snack- Protein Bar, Greek yogurt, 2 hard boiled eggs, 2-4 oz of turkey with 1 oz of cheese, 2-4 oz of tuna, or 4 oz of shrimp. Lunch- Protein Shake Snack- same as above Dinner- 6 oz of lean meat, 1/2 cup of starch, 1 cup of veggies I started the diet last Tuesday. Today marks the first week done. I've work out four times last week and twice so far this week. I'm suppose to lose 10-15 pounds on this diet and I haven't lost a single pound in the first week. I'm extremely nervous and worried why this isn't working for me when I'm trying so hard. Does anyone have any advice? It's greatly appreciated Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm a little over 4 months post-op and things have gone well, with one exception: I am increasingly disgusted by meat. Before surgery, I liked boneless, skinless chicken breasts, hamburgers, Boar's Head lunch meat, etc. Now, while I could force myself to eat them, I increasingly find each of them to be repulsive. Did anyone else have this problem? Did it get better over time? Between Greek yogurt and Protein bars, I manage to get enough protein, but I would like to rely more on real foods than Protein Bars.

Why can't I lose weight after 3 weeks post-op!
JamieLogical replied to malvarez1210's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
@@malvarez1210 If you are only three weeks out, you are likely not on solid foods yet, but maybe pureed and soft foods? Drink your Protein shakes and get your Water. As for other protein options in those stages, here are some good ones: scrambled egg soft cheeses cottage cheese greek yogurt refried Beans tuna salad chicken salad This site has some good recipes for this stage: http://theworldaccordingtoeggface.blogspot.com/2007/08/pureed-foods.html -
I worry about that everyday. And also some-days I just can't get in all my Protein and have proper meals, I only eat yogurt, my shakes with up cal in one, and Cereal because we are on the run ll the time. I am walking more and trying to exercise from the wheelchair. The doctor, not my surgeon my regular doctor is making me feel horrible because some days my legs are so sore I can't even touch them and all he says is "you gotta do it anyway no pain no gain". Sometimes the pain won't let me. I am not a sissy but to hear him talk I am. It just brings my mood down and makes me doubt myself.

My husband & I went to Mexico last week on vacation and I just wanted to share with everyone that it IS possible to have a fun vacation and not worry about food, even though we are on specific eating programs. I am 4.5 months post-op and pretty much adhered to my proper diet with a few exceptions. I took my vitamins, ate a lot of lean/grilled protein and tried to get my water in. If we were off-site on an excursion, I made sure to have a protein bar and extra water on hand. Breakfast was usually an omelet with veggies or a yogurt & fruit and lunch/dinner was grilled or poached fish, shrimp, chicken or lean beef and veggies. We stayed at our favorite inclusive resort and I pretty much ate dessert every night, only had pasta once (two spinach raviolis) and only ate rice once (a couple bites of sofrito & rice). I did have crusty bread at dinner most nights (usually with olive oil & balsamic) and I did drank alcohol most nights at dinner and at the swim-up bars at the pools. Before everyone gasps, I only gained two pounds. We walked a lot and went on several off-site excursions, along with swimming almost every day. I got back home Saturday night and went back on program Sunday. I weighed myself this morning and not only did I lose the two pounds I gained on vacation, but I also lost an additional pound. We took this same trip at the same resort two years ago and we both ate and drank like no tomorrow and I gained 14 pounds. I did have to say “no” to a lot of things that looked delicious and I couldn’t finish a lot of the yummy food on my plate, but it is possible to go on vacation and enjoy your meals with minimal weight gain.

Need some advice and a diet overhaul: 2 years post-op, 75 lbs down
Oregondaisy replied to watchmeshine8's topic in Duodenal Switch Surgery Forum
There is no reason that you can't have Dannon Fit and Light as a snack. Most of us do. It's those regular yogurts that have 4 or 5 grams of Protein and 15 or more carbs that you need to avoid. I freeze half a banana and put it in Protein drinks. I find they keep me full longer. Bananas do have a lot of carbs in them. If you're going to eat oatmeal, eat steel cut oatmeal. Do you like dill pickles? I find a dill pickle with a piece of lunch meat and a piece of cheese rolled up around it to be very satisfying. If you really have to have something sweet, have a sf popsicle or sf fudgesicle. -
Transporting Protein Shakes to Work?
Kindle replied to Annek2014's topic in Protein, Vitamins, and Supplements
i don't like milk. I do like other dairy though like cheese, ricotta, cream cheese etc. Sorry, You mentioned mixing dry milk powder with the Protein Powder so you can just add Water, so I assumed you were OK with milk. Since you do like other dairy, and you are underweight, make sure you go for the full fat version of everything.....cottage cheese, yogurt, etc. Have you tried other milks? Rice milk has more carbs than almond milk. soy and coconut both have more (healthy) fats. Soy also has more protein than any of them. Any of these may be a better choice since you need more calories. They all also come in room temp stable containers that would be easy to bring to work. -

Letty's journey post-op
Rdsegobia replied to Rdsegobia's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hope everyone is well! Today is my 2 weeks on the A Pound of Cure and I been eating the way it says in the book. My update on weight today is 175.6 lbs its was a lot less then last week loss but I'm very happy with the results. I went down to size 12 in jeans and I could fit in size medium blouses. After this two weeks, I will keep eating the same way. There has been some days that I ate something that I wasn't supposed to like today I ate pecans that are caramelized with cinnamon, I know those have a lot sugar, but hey it's not easy to be perfect on the eating plan. I don't miss the coffee anymore or my Greek yogurt. Just came from buying groceries and most of the food is veggies and fruits and of course my eggs and some meats. I'm going to stay away the raw nuts cause I still can't control that so I'm just thinking to cut them out completely. Hope everyone's week is great! -
Between my multi, calcium supplement (1 tablet three times/day), and my Greek yogurt, I'm getting at least 1000mg. But with all the milk, cottage cheese, broccoli, kale, and cheese I eat, it's probably closer to 1200-1500mg most days.

Puréed stage in less than 7 days
tammymacias replied to nervousnelly719's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had mine done on 3/7 too I started puréed today. I started with choc pudding(made from the box) and yo plait yogurt. I are 1/2 and was full. Any other ideas for puréed foods that you don't have to blend? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
The flavours are nice from bulk nutrients but they arent very strong. I puchased their flavour sachet for the strawberry flavour to enhance the flavour but the rest were good without adding anything. The new choc honeycomb us my fav. I add it to 1/3 cup of greek yogurt and omg its like a mousse dessert Bulk nutrients also allows you to order a sample to try Sent from my SM-T350 using Tapatalk

A little less than a month (4/11/2016)
judy1234 replied to Brandi Anderson Maynard's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hi, Which procedure are you having? I had RNY gastric bypass 2 weeks ago and am able to move on from full liquids starting tomorrow. I have been doing OK with the Protein shakes and popsicles (full liquid) diet but have had occasional hunger. My NUT thinks once I start "real" food tomorrow, I will no longer have hunger, so I'm excited for that. As far as what you should eat, your surgeon's office will give you a list of foods you can eat and when you can move on to other foods. My surgeon has had me on a full liquid diet since surgery, which included Protein Shakes, yogurt, SF Jello, and SF popsicles. The pureed stage, which starts tomorrow, will allow pureed chicken, pureed Soups, eggs, etc. As far as clothing sizes, I have yo-yo'd for so many years that I have clothes from size 12 through 28. But I have heard others mention thrift stores as places where they bought clothes until their weight loss slowed. -
New! And I have questions!
Samiam1217 replied to brittanyandrea's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hi Brittany! I'm scheduled for the sleeve on the 1st of April. I was told I can drive as long as I'm not on pain meds besides Tylenol. I like the premier Protein drinks but I also purchased unflavored protein power to add to Powerade zero. I am also allowed Greek yogurt, applesauce and cream of wheat on the liquid diet. I start on Friday.. Best of luck!! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G928A using the BariatricPal App -
So tomorrow is 3 weeks post RNY and this week I was just able to introduce yogurt, apple sauce and sf pudding. At first the yogurt seemed ok but yesterday and today I got uncomfortable after the yogurt a feeling similar to indigestion and it lasts the rest of the day. Makes me not even feel like drinking. Any idea what it could be? Should I just stay away from the yogurt? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Chobani "flip" makes a P&J which consist of strawberry lowfat yogurt and Peanut Butter chips. Takes care of my P&J craving and contains 12 grams of Protein.
