Suggestions on what to eat?



Recommended Posts

Try Fage greek yogurt with 7 blueberries, 2 frozen strawberries, and about the size of your pinky banana with 1 splendia sugar and enjoy. I hate yogurt but it taste like a smoothie you would get from jamba juice I buy the 6 oz fage and use half of it one container is 18 gm of Protein so half is 9 or you can use the whole container just use 2 splendia and an xtra strawberry and 2 more blueberries.

I have ZERO energy...after I attempt to eat anything I have to lie down...It's so bad that I wished I could function normal without having to eat or drink anything because if that were the case id be fine.

Did you call your Dr. yesterday? This should not be happening but somehow you have to get more hydration.

JennyBeth is right, stay stay upright, it will help with the digestion.

Please get in touch with the dr. It may just be that you are so dehydrated that once you get hydrated you might be good to go.

Please let us know.

Agree with others - Water intake up as a priority. And talk to your doctor.

We each have "a book" that tells us what we can eat and when, and they're all different. Which means that no one way is right for everyone. I'd stick to Protein shakes sipped all day for a while, and perhaps a bit more watery than usual. Unless you really want it forget other stuff that you might not be ready for yet. On the Optifast program it says that it can be safely used for 3months (3 shakes a day) because it has a lot of Vitamins and minerals in it. An awful lot of healing can go on in that time.

Good luck.

      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.
