Hello!
I have the issue where I get tired of foods quickly, so I wanted some ideas on what I could eat for Stage 1 and 2 (liquid and squishy foods). I'm okay wish drinking straigh****er so I don't need anything like Crystal Light to mix into it. Here are the items I have already on my list:
Liquids:
Chicken Broth
Beef Broth
Miso Broth
Bone Broth? (If I can find any)
Fairlife Milk
Premier Protein
Squishy:
Greek Yougurt
Cottage Cheese
Scrambled Egg w/ Cheese
Sugar Free Pudding with Protein Power mixed in
Have you seen a dentist yet? Could you be stressed and possibly grinding or clenching your teeth? Those will for sure chip the incisal edges off your front teeth if it has to do with your bite.
My clinic hasn't really given me a written down diet to follow. I'm doing something similar to the Atkins Diet which has worked for me in the past--high protein, low carb. My surgery will likely be in October too.
Each dietician and surgeon is different. I will say, you need to follow what ever plan they put you on to the T. The more prepared you are before the surgery, the more successful you will be after. Start TODAY!!
Start exercising, sipping water throughout the day, eating smaller meals more slowly and start breaking old habits. It does not have to be a gym, walk around the block. Get use to having a bottle of fluid with you all the time and start using smaller plates or blows.
I am 7 weeks out and one of the biggest huddles for me is portions. I need to see more food on my plate then I know I will eat and I eat to fast so I fill up to quickly and then I'm looking for something else an hour later.
Regardless of the type of surgery, this is a life time change of eating healthy and exercise.
Hi guys I'm on the last week of a six week milk diet, that I have followed, set by my team at luton. (4 pints ss milk, 2 bovril, 1 Ltr water, sugar free jelly a day )
I wasn't hungry at all, and I feel that I have lost quite a few pounds.
i have an appointment to see the surgeon and anesthetist in June, and an approximate operation date set for early October.
I'm due to see the dietician in two days time, and am wondering what sort of diet she will put me on now prior to my op in October ?
has anyone else been in this situation ? .
kind regards mark
I agree with others... You need to get bone scan..
For healthy bones, teeth, we not only need calcium, but other minerals like magnesium, boron, etc.. And vitamins like D, K2.. Teeth that looks hollow may indicate serious bone loss..

I'm just starting out on my WLS journey, but I can tell you one thing I'm grateful for is that I've never been a big soda drinker. I drink unsweetened iced tea. And my favorite are the herbal flavored teas, like peppermint and peach, that are already decaffeinated. You can also get plain decaf tea, but in summer especially, I like the flavors. :) My suggested brand that's available in just about any big grocery store would be Celestial Seasonings, but there are lots of others.
What is everyone eating about a year post op. How many meals do you eat a day and how many ounces per meal? I am 15 months post op RNY and I find myself craving bad foods and I am hungry in between meals. I am eating 5 to 6 ounces per meal 4 to 5 times a day. I am also very active. I am getting in about 1200 calories right now a day. I had RNY 1/5/2015. SW 261.3. CW 117lbs. Height is 5.375 inches.
I like Pure Protein bars and Quest bars.
Actually....all of them
Any of them.
I only have trouble with too much sugar in any form....natural or added. It makes me pass out cold. Like....coma level sleeping.
But no nausea.
