Opinions on kind and amount of food please



Recommended Posts

Two month out and I am worried if I am eating right or if I am consuming too much. Here is a typical day: Breakfast: a Protein shake ( sunwarrior vegan Protein, almond milk, date , banana) lunch : chicken breath grilled and some veggies dinner : boiled egg or tuna or slice of cheese. I also eat fruit either in the evening or early morning. Worried that I am able to consume too big quantities. No cravings or other issues . But not drinking enough Water usually get about a liter and a half . Any advice welcome.

How much chicken are you eating? How much veggies are you eating? How much fruit are you eating? How many total calories are you consuming every day?

Your Water intake sounds ok.

I recommend touching base with a nutritionist or bariatric nurse educator/ case manager regarding their recommendations. Each institution usually have their own program and can guide you as far as what you should be eating and how much/ how often.

Are you weighing/measuring your foods at all?

My doc told me I should be under 1000cal.. I also log my food on my S. Health app on my phone

      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...

        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.
