Diet from program includes bread for breakfast and lunch anyone else



Recommended Posts

I think for me it is difficult because I was never a huge bread, potato or rice eater. I also did not feel heard nor comfortable with my NUT. I have now incorporated Keto friendly carbs and every other day almonds in my diet. My weight lose has not increased meaning I am still averaging about 1 kilo per week. I workout 6 days a week. I am still looking for ways to improve my weight speed but am also trying not to allow myself to become too frustrated by this.

I'm 6 months post endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty and have only had 1/2 bun and two slices of Aldi low carb bread in those 6 month. I would think if you need to up your carbs, it would be best to eat some fresh fruit or veggies.

My program is moderate on carbs. Once I was released to eat anything their target was 50-80g a day. Any one of the balanced meals my nutritionist suggested was 1 slide whole grain bread, egg, and yogurt.

At around 9 months the target moved to up to 100g a day and most days I stay under that. They allow whole grain breads, etc.. although I generally try to get my carbs from unprocessed sources: Vegetables, etc... I do occasionally eat rice, sweet potato's etc... but try to limit as they are higher calorie and if I'm not careful they do kick off cravings.

Is it crazy to say I will eat whatever is best to ensure I am successful. With my NUT there was no other options per day I should eat two moment of fruit plus bread, crackers, rice or potatoes with each meal. I am currently still only able to eat 80 grams of meat with each meal and I am full. When I eat vegetables I then only can consume half the meat. I eat my yoghurt and drink Protein Shakes and my 80 oz of Fluid per day. I have no room for much else. Even the cracker and almonds I cannot do everyday and not with each meal. I know every plan is different and every body is different. I am still looking for the one that is right for me.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
