Gastric ByPass Diet


Question
Hi Laura I had gastric bypass surgery on 10/26/04.
I do not have any support groups that I can attend here in my area.  They have stopped them. because most of the people have been out a year or more.  I had to go out of state to have it done.  I had the lap RNY done. My problems is I do not really know what to eat.  They told me to eat protein first.  Meat is hard for me to eat and keep down.  I feel better when I don't eat.  I know I am not getting in enough protein.  I do not like the protein bars or drinks.  Can you offer me any advise? I mostly eat soup, like cream of chicken, or cream of broccoli or bean. I can eat candy and this is making me scared that I will ruin the surgery.  I have been very careful with the candy but am afraid I will get into a bad habit. I am 55 years old. I weighted 240 lbs. before surgery and as of 12/26/04 I weighted 202.  I don't think that is a very good weight lost for 2 months.  Thank you so much for your help. Carol  

Answer
Carol, this you know is not my expertise at all, but you have to make a decision to eat the protein candy bars instead of the real candy, simple as that. If you don't eat enough protein, your body will waste away and all your muscles will suffer. The important muscle I really worry about is your heart muscle. You made the decision to go to the extreme to lose weight, you have to make yourself follow a healthy diet. If your doctor can't get you a referral with a dietician, call the hospital where you had the surgery and ask for the dietician dept. They can help you further. Keep calling people till you get the help you need. Good luck, Laura Kraemer,Slimkids.com
