No foods are off limits. It's about moderation not deprivation.

I LOVE grilled cheese sandwiches and have them regularly. I just use low fat cheese, whole grain bread, and "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter" spray. I usually have half a sandwich with a nice cup of Tomato Soup. Yum!

I was at my support meeting last week and my dietitian (my 3rd one) does not believe in eating everything. My 2rd dietitian told me nothing is off limits. Same surgeon just different staff.(different hospitals) I do eat bread.

That's exactly why I say nothing is off limits. Everyone seems to have their own idea of what works, the trick is finding out what works best for you.

Btw, that would drive me nuts to have 2 NUTS giving conflict advice!

Every surgeon is indeed different. We are not allowed Soup, chili, Protein Shakes or anything that requires a spoon. No stipulations on bread though.

Wow!! I'm not even going to lie, there's no way I could follow that program. I eat chili 3-4 times a week and have a Protein shake for Breakfast every morning.

Grief how in the world can you eliminate Soup or chili? is that just for the first few weeks or permenantly? I eat chili alot, and soup and sometimes Protein shakes.. Chili and refried Beans saved my life after my liquid phase...

I have a Protein Shake, also every morning for Breakfast. It is very thick and sometimes I have to use a spoon because you can't drink it.

my doctor recommended eating a 1/2 sandwich for lunch . the purpose of a lap band is to eat solid food so you fill full and satisfied.

Chili is off limits period. He said that Soups , shakes, and chili go straight through and don't allow your pouch to fill.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
