blizair09 3,250 Posted March 15, 2017 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. 1 Shana Lee reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

triplethreat 257 Posted March 19, 2017 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. 1 Shana Lee reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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. 1 Shana Lee reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OutsideMatchInside 10,166 Posted March 24, 2017 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. 1 Shana Lee reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OutsideMatchInside 10,166 Posted March 28, 2017 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.

Sullie06 1,013 Posted March 28, 2017 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JKC2016 82 Posted April 4, 2017 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
