katanne 215 Posted April 10, 2016 Have you met with your surgeon's dietitian yet? S/he will go over this with you - mine is a high-protein, calorie-limited diet. I just track Protein grams and calories in My Fitness Pal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
suzyquzy 11 Posted April 10, 2016 My insurance and surgeon took Weight Watchers as my six month supervised diet. Sent from my SCH-I545 using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tssiemer1 549 Posted April 10, 2016 I didn't have a supervised diet but my surgeon wanted 4 ounces of Protein every 3 hours. That lasted like 9 days for me lol. I had mix in other things besides just 4 ounces of chicken breast or turkey lol. I started tracking my food on my fitness pal and focusing on Protein first, drinking my Water and walking. Doing that I was able to lose 12 lbs in 3 months. But I gained some of it back because I'm undisciplined and like food. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KristenLe 5,979 Posted April 14, 2016 Be sure to tell the Nutritionist what you normally eat - not what you think you should be eating. Depending on your history and habits - they may recommend something different than what we've been told. Take notes! There's a lot of info to remember! This is your opportunity to ask questions too.
