Enjoy however did report their post and deporable language. i am leaving the site. Hope they don't make this wonderful person that you are defending is allowed to continue after using profanity at me. BYEEEEEEEEE
That didn't sound right They were bought in the bariatric boutique at the hospital . they are cheese in the form of a crisp that melt in your mouth. They are 7g protein 0 sugar and count as one ounce of protein. Sorry they were not cheese curls. LOL sorry for the misunderstanding.
I am more aware than you think. These were not chips that were bought a the gift shop, these are cheese crisps that are all cheese and actually melt in your mouth and are on my list of approved foods sold in a special boutique at the hospital for bariataric patients. So I a not worried about my pouch busting open or being dead.
You need all the facts before you speak that way to someone. I will gladly look for a friendlier blog with more compasionate people.
Thank you for your support that person that came at me was inappropriate and I feel should not be on this site. Get your facts straight.
Maybe I need to clarify they are not exactly cheese crisps. I bought them in the bariatric boutique at the hospital they are by Kitchen Table Bakers and are made entirely of cheese.2 Carbohydrates, 0 sugar 7 g Protein They are o my protein list. I started this journey and only need to loose 85 pounds so that I could get off insulin. I appreciate your concern but you delivery needs some help. Wishing you the best as we continue the journey an hope to meet you at the finish line. I am confident I will get there my goal is already in site after loosing 8 lbs in one week. I really don't need your wishes of luck I have great dieticians that I will use for my qustions
That is fine. I was served one ounce of mashed potatoes with one ounce of protein and will continue having one ounce of startch with one ounce of protein at night. At this point I choose to follow my program here, To each his own but thanks for the input.
It is fine to ask people for advice it is the way they respond that lets me know what kind of person they are and truthfully you are not one that I wish to listen to agree to disagree here is the info one the parmesean crisps that I am allowed per MY DOCTOR as a protein They are made entirely from cheese 7 Protein, 2 carbohydrates and no sugar and I bought them at the bariatric boutique at the hospital where I had surgery. Feeling great today not hungry and down 8 lbs one week post op!
Thanks for all your help Audrey!
I appreciate your input but yes they give you an ounce of starch at dinner. This is a huge program and i am sure they know what they are doing since they have done over 1500 surgeries. I will follow their instructions. Yes had an ounce of sweet potatoes last night. They are a center of excellence an my surgeon the national board of bariatrics so I think she knows what she is doing.
I was off liquid 1 day post op. I am on total puree foods for 8 weeks. I thin I will try tuna. That might work. I get 2 ounces each meal one ounce protein with eiither an ounce of puree fruit, veg, or starch. I am having no problem with any of the foods or protein drinks.
My program does not look at calories at all they go by volume. Right now most of the calories are in the protein shakes. Can't be many calories in an ounce of protein, with an ounce of fruit, vegetable or starch. I actually ate an egg last night and the dietician said that was really 2 oz but if I can tolerate it that she was ok with it. Seeamsl like a lot to know.
I have been using yogurt and cottage cheese basically. The thought of pureed chicken makes me nausous. I was thinking of browning some ground beef. I wonder if I really need to puree it or if I mashed it up after browning I could eat it I really haven't figured out what else to eat for the protein I did get some cheese crisps from the boutique at the hospital and they are really tasty and melt in your mouth and one ounce has 7 grams of protein. You get three but I feel like I could keep eating them. I am trying to be careful. I did loos 7 lbs and it will be a week tomorrow so that is good.
I am eating my 2 ounce meals 3 time a day and my protein shakes getting all my water and all my protein in and I feel like I can still eat. I wait for my next meal. Has anyone else experienced this?
The first days in the hospital I was just on puree foods and popsicles. I started the protein shakes on day 5 at home. I do 1 ounce protein and one once fruit in am , then 1 ounce protein and 1 ounce veg for lunch and then one ounce protein and and 1 ounce starch for dinner. Those are the guidelines fro my dietiiian. I have been drinking two premier protein shakes and one muscle man protein. I have only been on these for two days since my surgery was just last Tuesday.
Walk, Walk, Walk. It really gets things moving. Especially your lungs so you don't get pneumonia. She did a hiatal hernia repair while she was in there and broke up scar tissue from a hysterectomy 24 years ago I started my liquid protein yesterday. My doctor has me between 75 and 90 grams a day and there is no way you get that from 3 one ounce servings of protein a day. i read how all these people have problem with protein. i take my 3 supplements a day I have used premier protein as you get 30 grams in one shake. Maybe I am crazy but I feel like I am drinking a chocolate milkshake. I did have a drain while i was in the hospital but it was not a problem. Luckily no foley. Oxygen only when sleeping at night. I am 64 so my lung function didn't come back a quickly but once I started walking more and using my spirometer more that all chanted. Good luck..
You will do great. I am almost one week post op and as of today off all pain meds and not hungry. Getting protein in with no problem. Fluids a little more challanging. Best of luck and let us know how you do

Sorry to hear that you had to go back to surgery. I had surgey on 9/8 and stayed one extra night due to fever. Nothing was off with blood or urine so I came home on Friday. Today I went off all pain pills and am feeling pretty good. Go for 10 minute walks but I am pretty tired after thatn Using premier Protein and having no trouble getting it down....I actually feel like I am drinking a chocolate milkshake.

Had my RNY on Monday came home on Friday. I had a fever night 2 so they kept me an extra day but turned out to be nothing I am doing good ad off insulin when I let hospital. QUESTION I drank my first Premier Protein drink and had no trouble getting it down. Since I only have an Oince of protein 3 times a day I will need to drink several of these a day. Does this count toward my fluids? Can't call dietician since it is the weekend.
I will be following you closely as I am having surgery tomorrow at noon. I am so ready for this. Wishing you the best!
Last week at work. Counting the days. Decided to try and start getting use to protein. Drank a chocolate muscle milk for breakfast instead of my usual bagel and coffee. I had no problem drinking it. Let's hope that continues. I know they say after surgery things taste different.
My surgery is September 8th. Wi**** was tomorrow I am so ready to start my new life as a thn, healthy person!!!
I am having surgery on Sept 9th can't wait!
Yes they told me about that. My problem is I don't drink enough I should probably start trying to drink more.
