Fiber bars not good for me



Recommended Posts

Omg I ran out of the house this morning not even thinking about eating. So I'm trying to stay on my 1200 pre op diet. I was doing grocery shopping and realized I hadn't eaten anything. So I grabbed a Protein Bar. So I on my way home and realized it was doing bad things to my belly. I have been in there at least 5 times. Guess I need to stick too real food.

Did you eat one of those Fiber One bars? OMG. They taste great, but they tear up my stomach as well. They used to make me sick even before surgery, but now I stay away from them.

Hope you feel better soon!

It was a Kroger brand one from the health food asile. I can do the fiber one type. These were like the cliff or Luna bars. Thank you I am better.

I love those Fiber One Protein Bars but have to stay away from them or I'll have eaten the whole box! If I close my eyes the coconut almond ones taste just like a Mounds can't bar!! Lol!!

There are different types of Protein bars. Some are loaded with sugar. Need to stay away from those. My preference is QuestBars. They have a lot of varieties. I am not sure what type of surgery you are scheduled to have. I had a RNY and after about 6 months I began using Protein Bars when I was away from home and couldn't blend up a Protein shake.

By the way, your tastes will change after surgery.

      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.
