I know it's crazy but the only protein in my pureed diet is refried beans and yogurt and it has to be unflavored

That? That's the sound of my full signal. Except it isn't. I'm 6 days post op and although I do feel pressure sometimes, it's usually just because I'm gulping and not sipping on my Water. I've been staying hydrated; lots of fluids and I'm feeling good. However, tonight, I'm trying to add some yogurt into my diet (I'm allowed 2-4 Tbls. of it). I ate the whole container. Now, who could blame me? I've loved key lime all my life, and Greek yougurt was a new one for me, and it was so delicious, and....yeah. Gone. The package says it contains 6oz. of yogurt. By my calculations, that's about 3 times what I should have had. But the sleeve was ok with this. No foaming, no bubbling, not even a tiny little burp to let me know that capacity had been reached. And I ate it slowly, about 30-40 minutes. Right now, between my confusion and guilt of my transgression, I'm just going to concentrate on sticking to my diet. Meeting with the dietician tomorrow, probably will have to confess. But does this have ominous implications? Did my stomach really get smaller, or did they just harvest one of my kidneys? I guess I'll just have to see. I suppose I could have made a worse choice.

I had been having the same symptoms, but my Dr. and I think it's actually triggered by taking Zoloft. If you're on an antidepressant, one of the possible side effects is gastrointestinal issues (reflux, vomiting, etc). Zoloft and Cymbalta are the worst offenders, though I understand the other antidepressants can also cause this problem. If you're taking an antidepressent, see if your reflux/pain/vomiting follows shortly after you take your meds. If it does, bring it up with your doctor. I'm now eating yogurt with my zoloft and it has toned down the reflux significantly. However, I'm getting off the Zoloft as soon as my dr. gets back into town.

Hi kmo. You should start a separate thread so folks reply to your question. In the meantime, did your doctor's office give you any sample menus? If not, a few examples are tuna and egg salads...chopped or mixed very fine. Hummus, yogurt, soft cheeses. For snacks, pudding, Jello, pops...all sugar free of course. It's really anything that is naturally soft or you can make into a mushy consistency.. Good luck.

@ "DiannVolvo" sorry to hear that. Don't get discourage give it time. Honestly I've been ok. Just little things here and there but I've been mobile pretty well on my own. I've been going to the gym walking slow of course but I'm able to do it for and hour and a half. I figured out I drink more doing that. I still can't get in my protein. Some moments I get the urge to eat and then it's times I could care less. It's a roller coaster with this. I'm starting to sleep in my bed with a ton of pillows tho. Just take it one day at a time. Each day I learn something new. I made the mistake of eating yogurt/pudding and my sleeve ached at me for a couple days but now since I haven't eaten it, it's fine. I still barely get 64 oz of fluids in but it increases everyday. -
June 30th Sleeve Surgery date
tiredmama replied to tamcat44's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Typical day for me: Breakfast: 1/2 Protein shake or Quest bar Morning snack: 1/2 cup cottage cheese Lunch: 100 calorie yogurt Afternoon snack: 1/2 Protein Shake Dinner: 1/4 cup of tuna salad Evening snack: sugarfree popsicle Portion size varies for me- I usually dish out 1/2 cup per meal but usually cant finish it, especially if it's a thicker texture. I am trying to cut down on snacking because my doc and nutritionist advise not eating more than 5 times a day but so far I can't eat enough to hold me for much more than 2 hours. -
Thanks Iowa, as of this morning I am 168 and am going to try the 600 experiment. I have to remind myself that this won't actually hurt, because I don't feel hunger. It will be interesting to note all of the emotions I feel, that will be brought up, like anxiety. Today I will have one egg, one protein shake made with water, one container of greek yogurt with walnuts, and one protein shot. 600 cals, 79g protein, 21g carbs. After work I will run 2 miles and lift weights, let's see what happens!

Sleevealicious replied to marybethintexas's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I am doing well. It's going much better than I thought. Still resting a lot and taking pain meds, but I am able to eat yogurt, Soup and Protein shakes with no problem . My biggest complaint is my throat still really hurts and is swollen from The intubation. Glad you are doing okay . Have you weighed yourself ? I am weighting until Monday because I know I am still carrying a lot of Fluid and don't want to be disappointed. -
Yep that pain for me is gas pain and constipation.. It's lasted weeks for me and is very frustrating never mind uncomfortable.. Now I make sure I get all my water in , take a fiber powder 3 times a day in my water and yogurt and take duralax every night .. It's getting a little better now

Experts and Band Veterans...I have a question. I was banded on Thursday (9/27) and I am on full liquids. However, some of the things I'm allowed, I wouldn't really consider a liquid. I'm allowed pudding, yogurt and baby food fruit and applesauce. I'm not allowed creamy or blended Soups until the mushies phase. Seems to me they are the same consistency but whatever. My question is this. Do you think it would be ok to have egg drop Soup in this phase? Or would the egg cause my stomach to start the digestion process that is undesirable so soon after surgery? Thanks

Will the biggest losers please rise?
jjsmiles replied to DesertRose's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I also didn't go low carb. I eat anything and everything, but try to generally stay around 1000-1200 calories per day. I log everything I eat and I exercise a lot (about 1 1/2 to 2 hours a day, 3-5 times per week, both cardio and strength training). When I go out to eat, I eat what I want, but I do try to think about what I am going to order before I go, so that I make a semi-sane decision (i.e. not the bacon double cheeseburger with fries and gravy, which would be my impulse choice). I am also not overly restricted - I can easily eat 3-4 oz of Protein and 1-2 cups of whatever else for a meal. What I find the band does is that it helps me control my hunger between meals. In fact, other than the evil head hunger (which I still experience), I don't really experience hunger anymore. I still love to eat though and I still love food and have not lost my taste for sugar and fat. I am kind of going with the philosophy of eat really well 90% of the time and then have whatever I want the other 10%. After that lengthy intro :biggrin: - typical day for me: B: oatmeal or 1/2 c. egg white omelette with weight watchers toast snack: fruit - 1 piece or 1-1 1/2 cups lunch: 2 slices weight watchers whole wheat or multigrain bread condiments like mustard, fat free miracle whip, ketchup 2 oz of some kind of lean protein 200 g fat free yogurt (2 of the small containers) dinner: 3-4 oz of lean protein (any kind - I eat chicken, fish, pork, turkey sausage, beef, etc.) 1-2 cups of veggies (usually cooked cause I like them better) snack: 1-2 Snacks (about 100 calories each)- favorites include 100 calorie micorwave popcorn, vita muffin, 2 sticks of turkey pepperoni, no sugar pudding I will eat potatoes or Pasta, but I am usually too lazy to cook them during the week, so I am more likely to have them on weekends. I don't drink any of my calories (no protein shakes), including milk (I don't like the taste), and I take a Multivitamin and a Calcium supplement. I haven't reached goal yet (my goal keeps changing) :smile:. I think realistically, I will be able to eat about 1500 calories most days once I have finished losing weight. -
There is also a blueberry flavor that has big plump berries and I *think* 13 grams of Protein. This is by far my favorite yogurt and was a staple of my pre-op diet!

I started my 10 day pre-op diet. Holy cow it's rough and I'm just day 1. People tell me after day 3 it's easier but all I thought about at work allll day was food. My stomach was rumbling so loud that I could hear it even with my headphones with music on while I programmed. Torture. My diet is: gatorade, Powerade, apple, orange and grapefruit juices: 2 cups or less daily. sugar free Jello, popsciles and fudgesicles: as much as I like as long as they're sugar free A cup of skim milk, low fat yogurt or low fat cottage cheese: 3 or less daily Atkins shakes or carb solutions shakes: 3 or less daily (I got powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury shakes in vanilla, chocolate and chicken soup) You may have as much as you like of broth ONLY Soups in any flavor. As much as I like of sugar free beverages like diet soda, crystal light, coffee and tea. Then there are diabetic allowances like small amount of regular cottage cheese, light yogurt, stuff liek that. So my question is.. what is broth? Just chicken, veggie or beef? Because in the broth area of my supermarket I found butternut squash broth, tomato and some other nifty things but I don't know if that's considered broth. Anyone?

Hello All - Please let me know what you think - often I post on here and do not get that many replies. I was banded in April 08, I lost about 50 pounds. I have had 2 fills and have 4.6 CC in my 11CC band. Now, I am not sure if I should get another fill, I want to. This is what I am thinking, I still feel like I can eat too much at one time if I eat slowly. I think I am a little confused - the more cc's you have in your band, does that mean it makes your pouch smaller? I guess in my head I just keep thinking that it makes the opening smaller and food will not pass as quickly and if I do get another fill I will be sliming like crazy again. I have definelty learned to eat much slower and my diet is better, but I still am working on making better choices. DO you think I stretched out my stomach above the band and that is why I can sometimes eat too much? Although a couple weeks ago I took all of my perscription medications with some yogurt and I couldn't keep them down - they got stuck. One of the pills was big (antibotic - strep throat). Does anyone have an ideas or thoughts for me?

H Pylori is a stomach infection (bacteria in stomach) lots of people have it and don't even know it. As soon as you start your antibiotics start eating yogurt right away that will prevent the yeast infection.
-
you might also ask your Doc for the pill that treats yeast infections. I get them too with antibiotics and I ask for a script for the yeast med at the same time. don't wait till it is to out of control. and yes yogurt would be good too.

Hi! I was banded on 12/6 and I know how boring the first few weeks can be. I assume you are what my Dr. calls the full liquid stage. I drank Protein shakes (found Syntha-6 to be the tastiest), but also had Soups (I had good luck with organic soups from Safeway, as they didn't require any straining, so they were very convenient. There was Broccoli, Corn, Carrot and Squash). I could have yogurt,so I had yogurt and yogurt smoothies. I also had pudding. Not being a fan of chocolate, I found lots of new flavors in the sugar free instant pudding category - white chocolate, cheesecake, etc. I also like the sugar free carmel puddings from Hunt's. As always, follow whatever your surgeon and nutritionist recommend - every program can be different. Congrats on making this step and my best to you! Lucysmom 285/265/?

Sleeve on 7/29 (or close), how are we doing?
newbeginnings1965 posted a topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Surgery on 7/29. Am on liquid diet, plus protein drinks. Suppose to do this until 21 days. I would like something more before then, some yogurt or watered down outmeal. Wanted to see where others that were sleeved around the same time is with their diet. -
Hello all. I am scheduled for my banding on Nov 20th with Dr. Quilici in Burbank, CA. I just started on my liquid diet yesterday after my McDonalds Breakfast. I figure McDonalds helped get me into this jam, it was only fitting that they send me off. I haven't had my nutrition appt at my surgeons office yet (Friday) or gotten the official 2-week diet info in the mail. Based on reading this board about what other's 2-week diets consist of, I have a feeling I am in for a rude awakening about what I can and can not eat. For the past 24 hours I have been having low-fat yogurt, low-fat Soup (with stuff in it), crystal light, and soda (I am not ready to give up Diet Coke until the last second). Anyway just checking in. Look forward to keeping track with this board.

Protein shakes were my go-to when I went back to work as well. I knew I could tolerate them, and other foods were still hit-or-miss for awhile. But greek yogurt seems like another good option. I would definitely save the eggs for days off, because reheating them does make them tough. Or have them for dinner!
-
I was sleeved on the 24th as well, and the first 24hr was ridiculous!! I couldn't even keep my eyes open, and I know the nausea was awful! My doc actually sent me home with anti nausea medicine that melts under your tongue...it does get better though...I'm able to tolerate some broth, and actually had some yogurt today! Hang in there!

I'm one month out. I still need to have at least one Protein shake/day at 24g. Otherwise I focus on protein first with everything I eat. Typically egg substitute at 6 Jimmy dean turkey sausage at 11 Yogurt/cottage cheese at 11-12 Cheese stick or cheese on eggs at 6@ dinner just the meat. Been getting in 60-80 Good luck! You can do it.

Help - liquid stage week 2
JillSG replied to Jessica1976's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I went to whole foods yesterday and got some of there traditional butternut squash soup. One cup has 8g of protein. It's really good. Yoplait makes a Greek blended yogurt which is good. The Tangerine has no piece it it. Also Chobanis key lime and orange vanilla has no pieces in them and they are good too.
