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

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.

      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.
