I hit the 2 month post op yesterday the 28th. Now I've noticed I'm struggling deciding what to eat. I got cleared for all foods now but I don't know how to eat meaning what to actually eat. I know I'm allowed everything now but my doc says to avoid breads and Pasta etc. for at least 6 months. I actually just want an idea of what others eat. Like what does a normal day of meals look like including the Water and Protein. I started the gym a week ago and I'm trying to go at least 4xs a week since I noticed my weight loss has decreased to like 1 pound a week sometimes nothing. I did go from 234lbs to now 190. I think I just might have hit a stall and I'm just embracing it like I have read in other posts lol.

Here's an example of my day

Breakfast = Dannon lite and fit Greek yogurt

lunch = half to 3 quarter cup of homemade chili (made with ground turkey, kidney Beans, and bell pepper, and Tomato puree and seasoning of course)....that's this week..........some times I have an Atkins frozen dinner, but can only eat a little more than half.

Dinner = 3 ounces of Grilled or baked meat (chicken, fish, pork chop) with non starchy veggie. I can usually only take a bite or two of the veggie

If I'm hungry after dinner or need more Protein I may have another yogurt...

As far as Water I drink Water all day....on average about 80 ounces. I don't drink any Protein shakes.

Thank You so much. I might try the Atkins frozen meals if I can find them near the food stores I go.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
