By low sugar do you mean low carb? Most people on these boards avoids high refined carbs like pasta, or a lot of sugar found in sweets, cakes n such. Carbs are usually the complex type that is eaten & even then it can't be too high.
Your nutritionist/Dr. should give you some answers. My plan doesn't have me counting carbs but I generally try to keep it under 50 while in weight loss mode. The numbers vary from person to person. Try posting on the main boards for more replies.

i think your going to have to learn to eat seperatly from your boy friend. esspecially when your on the pre-op liquid phase he's still going to need real food. ive also learned with my hubby personally that i cook meat and veggies for my meal and cook him some rice also he loves rice hes hispanic so they have rice at every dinner. i just chose not to eat the rice. dont care for it much any way unless its in sushi. my husband is also following a similar diet to me but he is doing slim fast. hes lost some weight on it. but yeah after the operation your going to have to measure your food and protein and carbs if you want to be sucessfull get into the habit now and youll do fine
Hi I need help, I'm 4weeks post op lap band, I'm hungry every 3-4hrsany tips on what's a good meal plan? I Don't know how to tell if I'm full, anything helps. :(
Question .... I had RNY surgery 2 months ago and had been doing fine till about 2 weeks ago. I ate grilled chicken for lunch and got very sick after. I didn't know if it was "dumping" or not... It was probably 1/4 of a chicken breast, not too much. Anyway, last week, I ate too much and it came back up, which is fine, I mean, I did that one to myself. So, to my question, the last 2 days, I have eaten what I should be eating (no carbs / sugars) and I've gotten sick around 10 minutes after I've eaten. I, again, am not eating too much. Is this normal while my body is trying to adjust? Thanks in advance for any feedback.

Where can I find and buy PB2. Is it expensive? I am trying so hard to enjoy my protein shakes but cannot stand the taste of the whey protein powder.
I am 2 months out from sleeve surgery and finding how much I dislike dense proteins: meats, boiled eggs.
I really enjoy fruit, veggies, salads, soups, and fish.
What other protein options are there besides protein shakes that I absolutely detest? Suggestions?
I bought this one and it's perfect. I still use it. I already had a blender but never use it. I don't do shakes at all because I don't feel very satisfied after drinking my protein.
