When did you start eating creamy Peanut Butter? How about almonds or other kinds of nuts? Thanks in advance!

I used PB2 in my shakes but real Peanut Butter and nuts, not until after 6 months.

I ate PB at a bout 5 months or so. My stalker nutritionist also cleared me for nuts. I have found that they are sliders though, so I don't eat them often.

I have Peanut Butter quite often and almonds about once a week. I am almost 12 weeks out.

I have had smooth natural Peanut Butter in the purée phase with no trouble. A tablespoon of it is a great dessert.

I also had smooth Peanut Butter starting with my soft food phase and had no problems...haven't tried nuts or raw veggies yet

I was allowed to have it starting in my puréed phase but the first time I tried it, it didn't go down real well..so that willbe one I will be putting off before I eat it again.

Peanut Butter is on my list for purée stage. I found powdered peanut butter at whole foods, it's 35 calories/ tablespoon. And it has like a fraction of the fat! U add Water to it and get it to the consistency you want...and it's delicious!!!!

I make a smoothie with 6 oz 1% milk (or skim), 1 scoop Protein Powder, 1 tsp Peanut Butter, 1/4 c. banana, 1/4 c. ice cubes .... It really is a nice blend with the peanut butter. Just gives it enough of a kick. Just takes a long time to drink it LOL

I didn't eat Peanut Butter till I got to goal. Too many calories for too little Protein in my book. My program counts Peanut Butter as a fat, not as a Protein.< /p>

I started Peanut Butter with the soft food phase. My nut suggested it to get more calories.

Natural nut butters (peanut, almond, walnut, cashew - no sugar or oil added) are allowed by my NUT starting week 3 (soft foods).

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
