Shout Out To All The Veterans...*carbs Or Calories*



Recommended Posts

doesnt greek yougurt have alot of carbs....what kind do you get? I am excited about learning to eat from scratch. Today is day 8 post-op and I am having a lil cravings and my stomach is growling but still on liquids....I did have 2 cups of egg drop Soup but over an hour...all i can do is liquids right now...never thought i would look forward to pureed food...:)

To be honest I have no idea what the carb count is on the Greek yogurt. I know the container was 2servings @ 180cal/serving for a total of 360 calories & 46g protein(which is too much Protein in one sitting) but it was done on a day that my total calorie count was under 600. It was done intentionally because I had been preoccupied all day working on my truck, and other tasks & I wanted the extra calories. The brand was chobani.

      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.
