Recommended Posts

Ok I don't understand I'm 6 weeks tomorrow and i can't eat hardly any of the stuff everyone's eating my food is yogurt tuna string cheese egg but only fried at first I eat fish Salmon& Flounder but the other night tried Talapia and got sick

7 days after my Rny I had an upper GI bleed, lost almost 2 units of blood, I had Chunky chicken noodle Soup pureed noodles removed. I pushed it to soon. I almost died in my sleep. DON'T PUSH IT! I don't mean to scare you. I then was psychologically affected by my near death experience and didn't go past Protein Shakes for 120 days and was @ 165lbs at 6'2" tall (440lbs b4 Rny) I almost died again ahhhhh! Be careful and take it slow.

I had surgery Dec 15 and am down to 179. I could not wait to eat fruit absolutely love it. I don't eat breads' date=' Pasta, potatoes, or other processed carbs. However last night my daughter was eating Doritos so I tried and had some. That was after 86g of Protein. I do have a shake before I work out and after. I work out everyday. I think it is inappropriate to judge someone because you don't know their daily menu or work out schedule. I believe after almost 4 months since surgery, w nothing but healthy food (proteins, veggies, fruit) for me, you have no place to be judgmental. Before last night, I didn't touch one processed carb. Many people on here might be the same way. So please step off that pedestal you placed yourself on and stop looking down your nose and making rude comments to those of us who are honest about what we ate. We are human, we aren't perfect and neither are you.

Sorry to have struck a nerve. You must have thought I was talking about you. I was not. My error in NOT sharing my comment privately to whom I was blogging with. Congrats sounds like you have food under control, keep up the good work:-)

We can't live others lives for them. But you know what, for many people it was judgmental people and abusiveness that may have caused us/them to eat the way we did before the surgery. Heck, it could have been medications, such as in my case. Many used food for comfort to try to heal those wounds. Why would you want to open wounds that are healing??? I think if something negative must be said, you can drop them a note and start a conversation. I would like to hear positive comments and hear the reality of what people eat. We are all at different stages and can eat different foods. So what if someone gives in after losing 70 pounds and has something they shouldn't. Maybe that was their treat to themselves. It is ok to treat ourselves occasionally. If you see a post day after day about a specific persons diet and are "worried" or whatever it is you feel, drop them a private note.

No you didn't point me out specifically but I will stand up for others. We need to be supportive of each other, not break people down.

I have over 200 posts of positive, uplifting and helpful comments. I made an error and admitted this for all to see.

You want to continue to chastise me. You have made your point. Let us move past this.

I made turkey tacos tonight. At first was a little weirded out using turkey as the meat but it was so good. Instead of sour cream I used Greek yogurt. Just had one taco and it was perfect.

We're all in here for ONE reason to support each other no ones perfect and we all make mistakes just some don't admit it so be nice don't gossip at least some of us are human and do things we aren't spost to and aren't afraid to say it and if you take a bit of that cake or eat a chip or a piece of chocolate that's going to happen as long as it just one bite or one time

I've used ground turkey for years. But I do have to say when I first thought about trying it, I wasn't to sure when buying it. But since then thats all I buy. My family loves it. Even those who come to dinner that don't know it's turkey burger have no complaints.

      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.
