Hey Guys!!



Recommended Posts

I'm just a little over two weeks post op and I sure hope and pray that wild game is not hard to eat. I shot my deer this year ( four point mulie, western count) and still have elk and bison in the freezer from last year. Probably 90% or more of the red meat my family eats is wild game. Has been that way for years. That's the way it was for me growing up also. (I'm 52 yo now). Plus I've lost 55 lbs since I started the pre op diet up to now. I weighed 376 lbs at my initial appointment and I now weigh 321 lbs. I've only got another 90 lbs to lose. I'm telling you, this is the very best thing that I have ever done for myself. Finding this forum has also been a great help.

Merry Christmas you bunch of yay whoos!!! I love this site!!:scared2::biggrin:

I am glad someone asked about deer meat. I have been hesitant to try it since surgery. I have eaten steak with no problem but chicken sometimes is hard to get down.

I have found that if I can chew the meat to a liquid in about 25 bites then I usually do not have a problem.

If I can not chew it to a liquid in 25 bites then I stay away from it.

I have eaten duck, elk, deer, caribou, Buffalo, squid, chicken, pork, cornish game hen, calamari and all kinds of fish.

      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.
