Basics Bootcamp V2 - Getting Back on Track



Recommended Posts

THE BASICS BOOTCAMP VERSION 2 (5.2.2014) RULES: The most important rule is you must follow the rules for it to work. It's only 5 days, you CAN do it! For 5 STRICT DAYS eat only AS MENTIONED BELOW... If you are desperate to get back on track this WILL work, but again you MUST follow the rules EXACTLY.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Proteins: Seafoods, Poultry (skinless and fat trimmed) and eggs (no or half yolks only and not more than 1 yolk per day), Dairies (No more than 2% milk fat), nuts/seeds including Peanut Butter (No more than 1 serving or 1 Tbsp PB only).



Veggies: As much as you can get in. Tomatoes are fruit. ^_^



Fruits: None.



Breads/Cereals/Other Carbs: Net 30g.



Fluids: Minimum 64 Oz Water.< /p>


Protein drinks (No sugar. RTD or Powder).



~AVOID SUGAR AND SODIUM~ Keep your servings to 8g or less in processed foods with nutrition labels. Never any candy, Cookies, chips, pop corn, crackers, cake, pastries, etc. Total sodium for the day should not exceed 1800 mg (unless you have a health issue that would make this more or less).



Once the 5 days are over, I am pretty much over the Sugar Carb Demon. Don't get me wrong, I don't hate carbs! I do need them to live a healthy life. However, I need GOOD carbs. Whole grains, fruits, veggies... But I don't need processed sugars. White carbs, in cereals, breads, rice... etc.



Lots will do the 5 day pouch test. liquids only is simply from being threatened with my life (post op) or if I'm just feeling sick and to let my Sleevie rest. That's it.



AS WITH ANY DIET REGIMEN PLEASE MAKE MODIFICATIONS IF NECESSARY IF YOU HAVE ANY HEALTH CONDITION THAT WOULD MAKE ANY PART OF THIS DIET HARMFUL TO YOU!! Or if you find this too difficult find substitutions that might work better. :)



Good luck everyone! This journey is tough, but nothing worth doing is ever easy. Xox :o

      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.
