Is Quinoa okay after RNY?



Recommended Posts

No I'm 2 years post op and it hurts my stomach...and I can eat most things. But quinoa and corn chips not nice!

At 5 months u could probably have a little rice or couscous. Potatoes are good and easy to digest.

Everything is going to be a learning experience. What some can tolerate others cannot. With that said I am 4 weeks out and I am allowed brown rice or quinoa granted I have yet to try them because they terrify me lol.

Wow never is a long time!! Lol whatever works for you. I'm 2 years post op so can eat most things but rice very filling and quinoa hurts my stomach so I never eat it.

But rice and bread, crackers all those simple carbs slow down weight loss best to wait till close or at goal to maintain.

True !!!!! I believe you. I dumped on teriyaki chicken and that's it. I've been very by the book as far what my doctor said. I just miss quinoa.

      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.
