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.

      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.
