I am now wrapped :). Few queries though.

[Anon1986]

So, I had my wrap on Wednesday in Czech and returned last night.

I had a Low Fat Custard Pot thing for my lunch today, although I couldn't finish it. Is it normal to not be able to finish one of those? There only 150grams, although I just noticed a rather high calorie content for something so small :O.

I was sharing a hospital room with a guy who had a RNY. We where given a yoghurt on Thursday and he managed to eat his without much issue, yet it seems I could only stomach half at the most. I do understand stomach sizes are different but I thought the bypass pouch was smaller than the wrap/plication?

Yeah its totally normal, I was wrapped on 8th Feb. When I got home I could manage about 1/2 tub yogurt or small amount of soup. I can now just about manage a full 125mg yogurt give or take a few spoonfuls. Your stomach will still be swollen so its a bit of a learning curve. At least your recognising your full, who would have thought we would feel full on a few spoonfuls yogurt or custard.

I'm going to attempt to stomach this protein shot later...

However it does taste like crap, way to thick and sweet.

I brought some powder and had it with water yesterday it wasnt nice. Today i had it with milk. Not much better but i think it is the only way to get in the protein.

How many calories did u manage today? Nx

 

[Anon1986]

So far just about 75% of that Custard pot, which is 75% of 138, so um around 100.

I shall have either some Milk with NAS milkshake mix, or a jellypot or a yogurt later.

 

[Niki315]

I have done 500 ish today. When u said about the yogurt i though u meant for breakfast, not all day, sorry! Although most of mine is from protien powder and marvel powder. Nx

I've only been back a day and didn't get in till 2am last night, so slept a lot etc.

Within a week I'm going to try and eat 3 small pots of some liquid for the liquid stages.

I must go buy some cupasoups though, all this sweet stuff will do my head in. I got fat by being a savoury lover not a sweet lover

 

[Niki315]

Today i had

Mini framage frais
150 ml milky coffee with mavel powder
100ml cup a soup and 3 tbsps custard
150ml protien shake with milk
100ml of liquidized shapards pie
Mini fromage frais

So i have had a lot compared to you. Feeling full but not hungry. I am happy with this as i was easily consuming 2500 cals a day before op.

I also think it is important not to compare to much as our bodies are all different and will lose in differenr ways and amounts. Nx

I just tried another protein shot, I'm going have to find some tasteless powder. Maybe mix it with flavoured milk or something.

My stomach was never insanely large, and I've had a terrible habbit of eating 1-2 large meals instead of proper eating for a decade or so. Made sure to drink 500ml of water today though.
