Not Full From Greek Yogurt?



Recommended Posts

I'm 6 months out but I've been able to eat a 5oz container of yogurt since 4 weeks...I didn't try it sooner but I'm thinking you shouldn't worry. You will hurt if you hurt your sleeve.

Congrats on getting sleeved :)

I eat some Greek yougart for bfast almost everyday. It's much more filling if I throw a handful of crushed up shredded wheat or kashi crunchy Cereal in it. If not it seems to slide right thru.

Never got a prescription for one... Now even more worried :(

You don't have to have a prescription. Prevacid and Prilosec are both PPIs

From what I understand, the object is never to feel full, just satisfied.

If you eat until you feel full, you are eating too much.

Okay I guess I will try one. I don't have much acid issues though.

Volume is the measurement you need to be concerned with. Think about the size of your sleeve...it does not matter if you eat half a cup of lead or half a cup of feathers, it only has room for half a cup. Weight is handy for some tracking (ie MFP) but you want to be sure you aren't over filling your sleeve which is a volume issue.

A lot of perceived hunger that people often complain of is actually acid in the stomach which is why so many doctors tell their sleeve patients to take them.

      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.
