Peanut Butter



Recommended Posts

This is funny but I am only on my first week but when can I have Peanut Butter again? I like it as a snack. I would get a teaspoon with a little on there and eat that and it was filling. Thanks.

Peanut Butter was on my pureed list - that was starting the 3rd week following surgery. I had 1/2 a container of the Jiff to Go pack an about an hour after eating it I got really sick. Haven't tried it again but I do feel like I found a cure for constipation! LOL

I was allowed creamy Peanut Butter 2nd week. 2 tsp with 2 saltine crackers. Had to eat it VERY slowly!!

Warning though at least for me. Could eat it one day and not the next. Who knows. Had 1 tsp pb with a cracker yesterday and was fine. (5 1/2 weeks out now)

Have you heard of PB2? Check Amazon.com or your local store. I am actually allowed this immediately after surgery and love it in my chocolate nectar Protein Shake. 2TB PB2 - 1 scoop Protein mix - 2tsp of SF banana coffee Syrup & 1/2 cup milk. Ymmmm!

Try to find Jif low sodium PB cuz the sodium in regular PB is too high. Can be dangerous if you eat too much so eat sparingly. Also fat grams are high in PB. I am 8 months out and just spread a very thin layer on a rice cake ainly just for the taste. Really good but then I started craving two of them every evning. So I stopped buying rice cakes so I wouldn't eat the PB. My doctor says PB is not a good idea because of the fat.

I love it too. Only thing is I can't eat more than 3 tbsp in a week. Haven't figured that out yet - its like something says STOP ... ????

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
