I Feel So Hungry!



Recommended Posts

Don't those Greek yogurts taste sour? I haven't tried one' date=' but I know I don't like plain yogurt. Could I add SF syrups to Greek yogurt? Obviously I can add fruit. You tell me...[/quote']

I love Greek yogurt! Especially the Chobani brand. If I had to describe it I don't think I'd say it was sour...to me it's just not as sweet and a tad bitter, but I love it. They make some with fruit already in it and you mix it up before you eat it and that makes it sweeter :) I'd give it a try if I were you, you might be surprised ;) I know I was. My mom uses it to make smoothies and I always thought its be gross, but I was pleasantly surprised :)

They come in flavors as well. I had my nutrition consult today and she told me Oikos Key Lime was fantastic. I haven't done greek yog. yet, I am just going to jump in with both feet when the time comes.

I am going to attempt pureed chicken breast. Does anyone add anything to it or just the breast and some broth?

sometimes i prefer it a bit sweeter and when i do, i just add some sweetener to it all. it does make a difference. i only use greek yoghurt with my Protein Drinks.< /p>

Don't do just chicken by it self add you veggies or put it in your Soup. Imagine poor a can of prejudice soup in all of it noodles broth chicken. Blend till mushie not liquified and eat. All your doing is pre chewying. We are human so we could make a mistake and not chew enough at the beginning so let you're blender do the work

I always like sour cream in my chili and on baked potatoes... plain Greek yogurt makes a guilt free substitute

i use greek yoghurt a lot. sometimes i put a little sweetener in with it as well. it would be a great substitute for sour cream... good idea.

What kind of Chili are you guys talking about? I am 5 days post op and can't eat mushy foods till day 14!

I wld say to go ahead and add a lil sour cream and cheese...we can't have that much anyway!

I am thinking of all kinds of beans...pinto, navy, black, baked...anything sounds good right now!

chicken blended with salsa sounds good...ugh! I am so sick of Protein shakes!

I start purees on Monday, Aug 20th. I just bought Hormels turkey Chili with Beans 97% fat free and it has 19 Proteins 1 fat, 1 sugar and I also got the Chili with veggies 97% fat free and Chili without beans which is lower in Protein. I was told to try it with a little of little cold greek yogurt for that sour cream effect and it will add more protein. Or even wit ricotta heated on top. The fat free refried beans is another protein dish that you can add greek yogurt or ricotta. I looked for canned fat free Soups and could not find any without Pasta or potato or barley.for my stage 4 puree. So my husband and I decided to buy kidney, lentel, black beans and black eye peas and we are going to make a bean Soup with carrotts, cabbage with chicken thighs no skin because chicken breast would be too dry in a soup. I will use low sodium bouiline cubes (spelling?) and chicken broth in the box and of course many non salt seasonings. I will cook it and freeze it. I bought fish in lemon sause that can be microwave in 3 minutes and it very good, which I had on my prediet. Can anyone tell me on your stage 4 with puree, can you have Snacks between the 3 meals and is your protein 2oz.

Hi everyone, here I am, 3 days post op. I'm super confused about how I should feel. I think I'm hungry, but then I get 2 sips of Soup down and I just don't WANT it anymore. But if I eat nothing, it hurts?? Does that make sense?

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
