Try www.bariatriceating.com they have menu ideas for different stages and you can also order food.  I just ordered the soup.

Btw, my weight is fine at about 130. It has stayed the same for probably 8 months.

Topic: BOOK RECOMMENDATION: DIET FOR SOMEONE WHO HAS HAD WEIGHT LOSS SURGERY?

  Hello! I had the Vertical Sleeve done in December 2013. I did great for about a year. I ate healthy, no pop, very rarely ate sweets, rarely any bread, rarely pastas our rice, but I became bored with my diet and started to eat more chocolate and other sweets. I haven't been getting all the protein  or  water that I am supposed to have. Lately, I have been eating more unhealthy snacks than real food.

I really don't remember much from my nutritional appointments before my surgery. Looking on the internet is like trying to find a needle in a haystack! I can't seem to drink protein shakes, because I have become lactose intolerant. I tried what I use to drink, slimfast, with soymilk and Lactaid, but that doesn't work. I get sick. I can tolerate Lactaid in oatmeal, cereal, or a small glass. All I ever drink is water flavored with Mio.

I need a book that will tell me how many grams of protein and other things I need, other foods I should eat, and what kind of foods to stay away from. Like, breaded foods don't digest well for me or broccoli.

Any ideas on a book? I moved to another state so I haven't been able to go to the nutritionist  or the PA that I saw before.

Thanks! Terry

I'm not sure if you had WLS or not, but I would avoid Pepto-Bismol. It is a salicylate (NSAID).

I hope you are feeling better.

I love those!  Also, I have always adored the word "pulchritudinous."

I follow a ketogenic diet post-op. I also have a diagnosis of binge eating disorder. Feel free to ask me about either!

Topic: RE: Hiatal hernia diet: Foods that trigger symptoms, foods to eat after surgery

I had a hiatal hernia & was given a ppi along with a list of foods to avoid. The hernia was repaired at surgery, the foods you have listed would not be good for weight loss patients & is probably only good for normal people who are at a normal weight.

No one surgery is better than the other, what works for one may not work for another. T-Rebel
