quick question



Recommended Posts

I wouldn't. Bananas (and fruit in general) are higher carb/fat, and Peanut Butter is extremely full of fat/sugar. I don't eat either of those hardly ever even at 2 years out.

Usually the foods recommended are things like cottage cheese, sugar free pudding, yogurt (greek especially for the higher Protein content), refried Beans (with shredded cheese/sour cream/unflavored greek yogurt), scrambled eggs and other high Protein lower fat/carb foods.

What does your doctor's nutritional guidelines recommend? That's what I would be paying the most attention to.

Stick to your surgeons guidelines and make the most of the 'honeymoon' period before adding high carb/sugar foods.

      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.
