Recommended Posts

Hi,

I am 11 weeks out from surgery. I have lost 44 lbs :) However, I have not lost any weight in 2 weeks.

Suggestions?

I also find myself eating the same foods....lots of protien shakes and greek yogurt.

Suggestions on what to eat?

I ate some club crackers and humus and Cottage cheese as well.

I also had a 2 week stall at the same time. Your body has to readjust to all the weight lost. Then all of a sudden it will be ready for another drop and the weight will fall of again. You will have stalls all throughout. Very normal.

Keep positive a don't forget to measure once a week so the stalls don't discourage you as much :)

food ideas...I am 12 weeks out today. I am a low carb eater so you can adjust to fit your lifestyle.

Breakfast: I usually have Greek yogurt, scrambled egg w/ turkey sausage, cottage cheese or a Protein drink

Lunch: deli meat and cheese, veggies w/ Greek yogurt ranch dip, leftovers from dinner, cottage cheese w/ marinara (heated up, sometimes w/ turkey pepperoni and mozzarella on top)

Dinner: I eat whatever I make my family, only will modify for myself. Last night, chicken breast w/ jalapeño havarti on top, grilled w/ mushrooms, small dollar of mashed sweet potatoes (I had to skip the salad, no room). Night before was tacos. I put my toppings (seasoned ground turkey, black Beans, cheese, salsa and Greek yogurt) in a bowl instead of tortilla. Tonight will be baked tilapia, steamed broccoli, carrots and cauliflower and leftover sweet potatoes.

Snacks: almonds, string cheese or cheddar stick, Protein frappe or iced coffee, occasionally a few wheat thins smeared with a Laughing Cow Lite wedge, Protein Bar if I'm in a pinch or on the road.

Hope this helps a little. Also, when I'm not losing or losing only a little, that's when my body changes the most.

I like the hummus that are snack size with the pretzel thins you can find in the deli. I have been eating a lot of hb eggs but am getting bored with the same old food. I found high Protein Quaker oats oatmeal which is good 10gms 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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
