Do you count carbs?

Yep. Militantly. I keep my carbs at or below 20 per day and have since I started my six month pre-op diet program March 21, 2016.

I do as well. I'm 8 months out and follow my plan which allows for 30 carbs 6 days a week and 50 one day a week.

No, and my team doesn't require it.

Do you feel you get enough fruits and veggies in? They are my source of energy!

I eat 1 oz of green vegetables (usually green beans) three times a day. I don't eat fruit at all because of the sugar and carbs. I had fatigue issues for the first 2 months post-op, but at almost 6 months post-op, I don't have energy issues anymore.

Yes.

I don't eat fruit, it is just sugar even it comes with Fiber.

I eat a bag of baby spinach almost every day.

I keep my net carbs under 25.

I am over 20 months post op.

Exercise is just walking. I do weights and yoga every now and then

I eat Keto. More fat than Protein, very few carbs. Usually I just have steak or a pork chop. And I have a big salad in thevery afternoon. I keep it very simple and very clean. I also drink coffee with heavy cream or half and half most of the day.

I moderately count carbs. My team said to keep my carbs below 60 a day. I tend to keep them between 20-30 most days but I don't beat myself up for days when they are higher as long as I'm below 60.

I focus on Protein and a wide range of veggies, adding whole grains to 2-3 of my meals (muesli in the morning, a slice of Daves bread or a couple of crackers or a brown rice cake. Lots of chicken and fish. More veggies than grain, and no sweeteners.
