My Diet



Recommended Posts

So I went to added my nutritionist yesterday and I have lost 44lbs since surgery and 74lbs all together, I am 3 months PO. So we were going over what I eat in a day and she said that I am not eating enough, I told her I can't I feel full after just eating a little and it is hard to eat, she said I should be eating between 1/4-1/2 cups and be eating almost 50 grams of Protein and between 800-1000 calories. How many out there are having trouble getting all their Proteins and calories in.

Surgery date June 15, 2012

Yes me, even though I feel great! I don't eat as much and the only Protein I get is when I eat fish or meat.< /p>

I'm having the same problems. I tried protection supplements but so far they all make me dump.

Well she just said I need to try, she did say Protein Drinks. She also said I can start eating more carbs but eat my Protein first. She said try a half of slice of toast with my egg in the morning, of my gosh it just sat in my stomach like a lump, so I guess bread is not for me right now. Have any of you had problems with bread, or have you tried it yet, she said whole wheat and the one I bought had 6 grams of protein.

      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.
