A Recipe For Failure

Yeah, I am starting to realize that getting in enough calories on 3 meals a day plus protein shakes isn't going to work. It is hard to wrap my head around eating often and not regaining too much. I think I will just start by adding one snack at a time and see how it goes.

Good luck, I hope you can find your perfect balance. I can't imagine a WLS NUT telling you to do milkshakes and some of that other stuff!! That sounds totally crazy...

I think I would rather try the smaller meals all day and make it healthy things to add more calories and maybe increase protein drinks. I would be afraid to put a lot of unhealthy things back in my diet.

I am shocked by your e-mail. What is that office thinking? I have a sleeve and dump, and it's no fun.

I'm so sorry you are going through this.

I am sure you have had ton's of good advice.

The only suggestions I have, maybe old news to you but here goes:
Cheese, cheese, cheese,
nuts,
avacados
virgin olive oils.
butters ( only if you don't dump on them)
fois grois (pate's)
do you have a french market?
high fat, organic yogurts.

Hoping that scale moves upward for you!

I am adding in the fat but I have to be careful because apparently I dump on too much so I have started having 6 meals a day.
We'll see how that goes.
What is a French Market? A place where they sell things from France? I don't think I have heard of any around here.
Thanks for your help.

Big dummies! Milkshakes? Really??? My stomach clenches just thinking about it...

One of my high calories faves is a tablespoon of nut butter with 16 Ghiradelli dark chocolate chips smooshed in. If I do it twice a day, it adds 340 calories and the sugar content maxes out for both tablespoons at under 20 grams. I wonder if that is too much for you?

Have you thought about looking for a new doctor, someone that knows what to do? I had to change my doctor, he flat out told me that I was his worst patient he ever had.

Also, what surgery did you have?

Best wishes to Ladytaz.

I have an appointment in a few weeks with a new PCP. She is actually my old PCP that I had to stop seeing because of insurance issues. She now takes my insurance and after waiting a long time she was finally taking new patients again so I am finally going to see her again. She is a very good doctor and I always felt that she listened to me so I have a lot of faith that she will have helpful advice.
I plan on her doing all my follow up labs and whatever I may need.
