Peanut Butter Problems?



Recommended Posts

Okay, I've got to be honest and say that I didn't have the desire to look through well over 100 pages of questions and responses concerning food issues, so I'm going to ask anyway...Has anyone ever had a problem with eating Peanut Butter? I have found that while it's not a physician-restricted food, I personally cannot tolerate eating peanut butter. It's like having a plug put right over the stoma. :lol: It's a shame, too. I like peanut butter and jelly sandwiches! But then again, in a way, it's a good thing, because peanut butter is SO fattening.

The first night I tried it, everything was fine until I drank some cold milk. OMG, huge stuck episode for several minutes. Now I just eat it slowly and don't drink anything to chase it down. I LOVE peanut butter!!!

It's one of my favorite foods to overdo. I have what I call the "low-carb fluffernutter". I just spoon out some Peanut Butter and some marshmallow Fluff in a bowl and stir it together. Absolute heaven!

I don't normally have a problem eating it. That is until last week. I had a fill on the 6th and I"m up to 5.5ccs now. I'm pretty tight right now and am having problems that I've never had before. Mostly b/c I'm eating too fast.

I had a spoonful the other day to up my calorie and Protein intake since I hadn't been eating much. Must have swallowed too much at once b/c OH WOW! It hurt! I have papaya enzymes on hand and got those down and soon was okay but I've been a little afraid to try it since.

I'll have to tho, I miss my peanut butter!

      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.
