Eat Protein and green vegetables...avoid breading, breads and pastas, sweets. Avoid veggies that are higher in carbs (like corn, peas).

Wendy's Chili is a great low carb, low cal, fill you upper! And is very band friendly.

A small Wendy's chili is 19 grams of carbohydrate...for me that's too high (when I'm trying to eat low carb) but for some I guess it would be ok....

If you eat your Protein foods first you are going to stay full for longer & should take away any cravings you might have, keep drinking plenty too..

write the good foods down on paper & take it with you it will make it easier to chose from menus

Hello~

Have you ever tried eating tuna fish mixed with a little mayo, seasoning and celery, onions, peppers, green olives etc. you can mix it up and put it in a container or wrap it in a lettuce leaf. It is very high in Protein and very Yummy. Also shrimp in low fat and high Protein, my friend had the banding done about 5 years ago and those two things have become her staple. The bags of shrimp usually are about $10-20 per bag but you can get a lot of meals out of one bag. I think the key is being prepared and always trying to have something on hand at all times. I was just banded a week ago today so I'm still on liquids. Hope this helps. Good luck to you :confused:

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
