Yum Yum!! I eat almost exclusively Protein with a chocolate shake in the morning, cheese for Snacks, and chicken, turkey and steak for meals. Protein is my favorite flavor!! :thumbup:

What's your favorite type of protein?

Mine: Extra Sharp Cheddar Cheese!! :thumbup:

Anything with mustard on it!

I used to love bacon before the band...I think I might make an omlet soon with some in it and see how that goes.

Isn't bacon one of those "don't eat" things?

Dave

Everything in moderation! You can get good cutts of bacon, that have less fat. I wouldn't eat much of it though, just a little bit to put in an omlett as a treat.

I'm a very healthy eater.

Whether or not you can have bacon depends on your choice of diet/eating plan. I do Atkins because I lost 70 pounds successfully on it and got to the point within weeks where I didn't have to take insulin anymore. Plus my good and bad cholesterols were within normal range after about 6 weeks.

I thought being banded meant I could eat like a normal person (aka having carbs) but discovered not so true, so I'm back to Atkins. Which means I'm eating 2 eggs and 2 sl. of bacon for Breakfast in the morning...and losing weight.

Turkey bacon and turkey sausage are both okay to eat. They both have low carb and tast great! I eat turkey bacon, turkey sausage. I even found the Johnsonville Turkey & Cheddar brats. They are awesome! I mostly eat chicken and turkey now. I buy the ground turkey and turkey patties at the store. I just love turkey and chicken!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
