I am a month post op and I cannot find food that I want to eat so I don't eat. I am tired of tuna chicken salmon so I just either have a Protein chips, cookie, shake, or just liquids (like Water, Powerade zero) chicken/vegetable broth, applesauce, sugar free Jello, I even tried a pack of crackers, and tried a lunchable, & some watermelon NOTHING!!! Is satisfying me I mean I just don't want to eat wrong should I say.. so I guess my question is how did you guys eat a month post op(gastric bypass) I have lost 20 pounds this month and just trying to continue but as stated before don't want to take in nothing bad.

I am one week post sleeve, but 5 years post major,dietary life changes. Your post worries me. You need to read and read and keep trying to,stick to what the surgery requirements are. Of course food you "want" isn't going to be all the fun and satisfaction it was before. We wouldn't have cut our bodies up if we had the mental abilities and discipline for this up front

Agreed & I haven't as I stated I don't eat because 1)I am not hungry or 2)just tired of the food I am having. However, people keep telling me that I have to learn my body and try new food? So my question is what food? Being that all the food seems to be bad to even take it so I play it safe with what I stated before. My Mental is GREAT! I am determined not to be the old me by any means just was curious about "HEALTHY" new food selections other then what I have been trying.

You are so welcome. There are a couple VSG groups on myfitnesspal that are really great. I friended quite a few people from the groups and I have really enjoyed following them and looking at their food logs. Also, I got a fitbit and friended some of the VSGers so we can do challenges together.

Hi!

I am almost 2 weeks post op (sleeve) and i'm wondering when you first had sashimi? I am craving salmon badly!
How often do you eat? 5-6 small meals a day?

Thanks!

      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.
