4 oz lite yogurt today



Recommended Posts

I'm 2 1/2 weeks post op. I've been eating 2oz puréed food at a sitting. Today for Breakfast I was able to eat 4oz lite dannon yogurt until full. Does this make since. Later on I was back to 2oz refried Beans and was full with that.

Thanks in advance for your support!

Yogurt is basically a liquid if it isn't a greek yogurt. You really shouldn't be eating until full. That is a bad habit to start. Measure your portions and only eat that amount.

Don't stress. Most doctors and books say to stop eating "when you feel full." So, yes, you're OK to do that. I'm 2 1/2 weeks out also, I'm doing great, and my Dr is thrilled with my results & regimen. Keep taking it easy. Don't go over 2-4 tablespoons or ounces yet, but likely you won't be physically able to anyway. The trick is to not eat anything "as soon as you feel full." Not another bite. Even if we feel great on the outside, the actual stomach is still swollen. My Dr said it's only open about the size of a finger right now, but after a couple months post-op it becomes more like the size of a banana.
Hang in there, you're doing fine!

food addicts never feel full though, or they feel full past the comfort level.

Most Drs don't say eat until you are full, by the time you feel "full" with a sleeve, you have over ate.

They say to eat your measured portions.

Yes, well, everyone is different and one person's measurements might not be good for another, therefore, you have to listen to your body and learn what your stomach feels like when it's getting full. To each their own, in moderation....

I can eat a single serving size greek yogurt (one carton) . It wasn't like this day 1, but I could do it about week 3. But I can not even eat 2oz of meat. It feels like lead!

      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.
