Low Carb Mushies?



Recommended Posts

The cool whip ideas sounds wonderful! I will try that.

Tried scrambled eggs this morning. Felt like I swollowed a brick. After two bites I feel a terrible pressure in my chest, and felt like I was going to throw up so I stopped eating. Sticking to smooth things for the rest of the day. I really don't think my tummy is ready for eggs/tuna yet.

Wonder if that means I will have restriction when I get on solids???

if you want something sweet try blending artificial sweetner and almond/vanilla/mint/maple extract into ricotta cheese (yum...kinda tastes like cheese cake)

I went out and bought low carb ice cream from Braums. Tastes soooooo good! I just have to watch portions.

i was just in the 'success diet for bandsters' chat when they were talking about the foxkins diet that the dr in WA state reccommends. and his thing is even more aggressive. he says all meat NO veggies. i don't know if i could do that, but i do know that when i did Atkins for 2 years i had really good results. and i didn't crave sweets. and it is ice cream that is my downfall! so i'm seriously thinking of getting back on the low carb bandwagon. i think dr. fox's premise is sound, that if you get to goal weight you can pretty much maintain the loss easily. i mean it was always the maintenance thing that killed me about dieting.

      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.
