Yesterday:

B: Morningstar veggie sausage patty, egg, reduced fat cheese, light English muffin

 

L: Turkey/avocado/bacon/spinach on Mountain bread whole wheat (a new find - a flat bread from Australia that holds together much better than the low carb tortillas and has 14g carb and 3g Protein - I got it at Trader Joes)

 

S: South Beach Diet snack bar

 

D: Fage yogurt, honey, Kashi GoLean

 

 

Today:

B: Fage yogurt, honey, Kashi GoLean

 

L: Turkey/avocado/spinach on WW mountain bread

 

S: Apple with almond butter mixed with ground flaxseed

 

D: Morningstar veggie sausage patty, egg, half English muffin

 

 

Did you grind your flaxseed or did you buy it? I want to eat more raw fruits, veggies, nuts and seeds after my band and am worried about the nuts and seeds going down.

I buy the Cafe Mocha at my local grocery store and the Caramel Latte at a local vitamin/health food store called Clark's.

I know these flavors are available online at Amazon.com and drugstore.com, problem is the cost of shipping :biggrin:

Thanks Bloo, I'll see if I can't find them somewhere other than Walmart (which is the only place I've checked so far). Appreciate the response. be well.

Jess - My understanding is that you don't get the good stuff out of the flaxseed unless you grind it, so I grind it.

I've had larger nuts (walnuts, almonds, pecans) several times since being banded, and I eat sesame seeds without a problem as well.

I have started sliming again, all the time no matter what I eat, and yes I chew. I know I am not able to eat rice, hard boiled eggs, Pasta, bread etc, but the last few days, no matter what I eat doesn't stay down. Liquids are no problem, but I feel a head cold coming on. Does anyone else have this problem when they are getting sick?

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
