Blended powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury shake, cashew milk ice 21gr / 16oz

After 30 mins fluids, finished 8 oz

4oz Cottage cheese (2% fat) add 1/4 scoop unflavored Protein I/4 scoop blended into an oz of milk. 12 gr

1% milk mixed with 1/2 scoop unflavored Protein powder 14gr 8oz

Salmon 4oz (weighed raw) , 5cc cup of browns rice and Beans ~ 5c.f. chopped yams, 1oz zucchini, 1/4 tea sp butter (to steer fish) 12 gr but I could only finish a bit over 1/2 of the fish.

for evening shake, added carbs to see if it would help me sleep better.

1 scoop vanilla shake, 4 oz "supper food juice" blended with a cup of ice- 21gr protein 12oz fluid

I sipped Water but didn't record so about 80oz total

and about 100 gr protein.

I weigh or measure everything I eat and aside from the shakes and desolvable bariatric multi and Calcium everything is organic and mostly home grown.

I have a food journal I plan my meals out ahead of time on the left page and record what I actually eat and drink on the right page. I also record my Vitamin supplements.

Bear in mind that my fridge is emptying out because I'm moving this weekend...normally I'd have more store-bought stuff on my menu for the day. This is me halfway into week 7 post-op.

Today it's been like so:

Breakfast: 1 scrambled egg with onion and a little cheese, some fruit puree from Trader Joe's (a few spoonfulls)

Protein drink (1 scoop of GENEPRO with a 16oz cup of Crystal Light mix/water

Lunch: 1.5oz of chopped up chicken satay from a restaurant I like (tossed in the peanut sauce) and a couple TBSP of potato salad with egg

Dinner: A small side order of String Bean chicken from Panda Express grabbed on my way to work (I didn't quite finish it)

Will probably add a little Protein Powder to my drink later to make sure I get enough for the day, as well.

Cottage cheese is my favorite food. At first, I don't like its taste very much. However, I try to eat due to variety of benefits it can bring about me. So the more I eat, the more I enjoy. I eat cottage cheese everyday. As an abundant of calcium, cottage cheese can strengthen your bone and prevent osteoporosis effectively. Minerals in cottage cheese can lessen your worry about heart diseases. Anxiety can also be treated. https://wikihomenutrition.com/cottage-cheese-health-benefits/

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
