I am post op sleeve vsg post op 6 years I lost a 166 pounds I have kept it off I am age 63 I am 5"2 . Best thing I ever done for my self and my health.
There’s so much misinformation here.. my surgeon literally said no vegetables like cauliflower or broccoli this soon because it makes gas (gas expands) and he suggested mashed potatoes (made loose)... and why cant you say potatoes? Also NO SEEDS! What are you telling people?? Chia seeds can get stuck in your sutures..
Aliza Mattrazzo every surgeon is different. My surgeon says the same things that they do , no mashed potato. Beans are on the no list as well. It just depends on the practice. This isn’t an exact science
Kara W no but if there’s such varying differences across the board then something like this that reaches thousands of people in the internet shouldn’t be spreading information they’re not exact on. Especially the seed part, the danger that can cause is insane.
Well, here I am 2 years post op lol. I did very well and lost 142 lbs. Life is much easier with all that weight off. I exercise and eat much healthier now 😊
@@Meela234 congrats! Can I ask if you still can eat foods you used to eat before your surgery? Can you have a burger or a steak, or a Coke once in a while?
I am 1 month post op and I don’t like anything my taste bud are so different. I don’t like any thing that is on my list of purée I am getting better with my water intake and my protein powder. Thanks for the recipe ideas. ❤️🙏🏾
Honestly I have watched so many videos for the sleeve ,but yours is the best ever! You focus on nutrition, natural ingredients etc! Thank you, I wish I lived in Canada!
+Jennifer Dwyer Oh, wow! Nutracelle products are available in the United States. If you sign up with Nutracelle, you will have access to tons of bariatric support! xo!
I’m a VSG patient and I will be starting my stage two with purée food in two more days and it will be 1 month fully!!so I been on liquids since November 5th!! Yay eggs 🥚
Hi Remington Mcneese! Thank you for your comment. I did check it out, however, it looks like it's a 3-week diet, whereas the Nutracelle lifestyle is a long-term plan geared at people who don't want to risk weight re-gain. I've successfully kept over 100 lbs off for almost 10 years now by following my plan :). Let me know if you have any questions!
Hello🤗 This was a very informative video. Just what I needed! Im post-op 2 weeks now. Im excited to be able to start the "soft food" stage. I am a big soup/stew lover. Would love to see a video on that if you have one please reply me the link. Thank You xo
My doctor listed mashed potatoes under soft foods. This reminds me of my job, no consistency. Lol. I have seen some people who considered tuna and salmon as soft food's.
I just had surgery on the 14th and I feel hungry alot but I'm always full I also eat liquids and purred food like baby food do you have any advice on when I should eat
Hi Annie, Our best advice is to make sure that you are always focusing on protein FIRST. This will allow you to feel fuller longer (less hungry), and will provide you with the nutrients your body needs to heal. Also, make sure you are getting all your water in. It's easy to become dehydrated when you are early out from surgery, and sometimes when we think our bodies are telling us we are hungry, we are actually thirsty. Good luck!
I'm a little concerned about the promotion of foods like chia seeds, avocados, and canned meats in oils (even if it's olive oil), so soon after having bariatric surgery. The nutritional guidebook given to me (before AND after, they have me 2 for some odd reason) stresses avoiding any foods with seeds, as they can be difficult to digest and also can become lodged in any crevices still healing in your newly formed stomach pouch. And avocados & canned in oil meats can add too much fat into the diet and cause dumping syndrome; believe me, I was experiencing it even BEFORE my surgery on May 3rd, this year, and it's NOT a fun way to spend an hour of your time... stuck on a toilet because your innards want to become "outards."..
This is the soft food stage, so typically 2-4 weeks after surgery. As always, follow the instructions of your surgeon and listen to your body! Hugs and Congratulations!!!!
Mark Wilson I guess you really don't know how serious this is until you get surgery I had no idea drinking water too fast would make me sick I thought that was for everything else.
@@cecep7477 baby sips and bites with everything for now .. Being single living alone helps not wanting food .. But it's always on my mind for I loved to eat
Hey Crissy Reyes. I'm so glad you're finding the videos helpful! What a wonderful birthday present to give yourself. Good luck! I'm 10 years out on my sleeve and the key to long-term success is the food you eat after your procedure. Finding a way to make sure your food is nutrient dense. High in protein and fiber but also delicious so that you're always satisfied and don't slip into old habits.
Hey Miranda Bitsy is no more unfortunately but we have a wonderful free app called Nutrafit for tracking everything. Here is the link to download it : nutracelle.com/pages/nutrafit-app-1
Yes after I had my surgery I did. Hair loss is common, I was able to get in lots of protein and designed a multi vitamin that helped me get control over that. here is a link with some more detailed information: nutracelle.com/pages/weight-loss-surgery
Diamond Kivi I’ve been keeping up pretty good on my protein which helps keep me super full thru out the day I basically just do 3 liquid meals a day and each has about 24 grams of protein so I’m honestly full lol
I am interested in the post operative success notebook you mentioned. Sounds interesting. I did get some information for after my surgery from my nutritionist, but a notebook that is all put together sounds great. How might I get one?
I see a lot of recipes using cottage cheese. I can't get past the texture of it, could I substitute ricotta cheese or is it too high in fat. I have not had my surgery but just starting the process. I am doing as much research as I can. I have already started weaning myself off caffeine and carbonated drinks.
When can you start eating mixed foods. I'm doing the gastric sleeve in 2 days through Kaiser and we're supposed to eat protein first, then veggies then starch and fruit when can you start making the things in your recipe
Hi Spencer, every surgeon is different, but we recommend a minimum of 2 and preferably 4 weeks before attempting solid foods. Start with a week of clear, then progress to full fluids and then soft foods and if everything goes well, introduce solid foods one at a time to make sure you are tolerating them well!
It's a lie that mashed cauliflower tastes like mashed potatoes!!! Cauliflower pancakes do not taste like a real pancakes. Pie crust made from cauliflower is not the same as real pie crust. Riced cauliflower is not going to taste like actual rice. It's all a very rude trick!!! I think we should just admit it is different. Then we can adapt our taste buds to it. I'd rather just pick different foods rather than 'trick' foods.
Thanks for the feedback! Our recipe for fauxtatoes is a fan favourite, maybe it will be better than your previous experiences! ecs.page.link/ALWVF Removing as much liquid as you can from the cauliflower is the most important tip to getting a dupe for the real thing!
Hi viri d, Sorry to hear that bothers you. I hope you can still get some good information out of the video. All the recipes are on the website as well if you would rather read the instructions, directions, and nutrition. Hope that helps. Have a great day :)
