YASS please more of what you eat in a day. I’m 1 year post op sleeve surgery and I still struggle on what to eat all the time. Thank you 🙏
alex...im 7 years out & still eating like u are & going strong...I really wish I could help you through this especially since I'm only about an hour from you. we could be bastric buds. lol. love u Alex. xo
Oh my gosh so my mom got the gastric sleeve surgery like 5 years ago and there’s a couple other women that got the surgery in the same program , like all in the same week as her . They stayed in touch and became friends and she calls them her Sleeve Sisters 🖤
@A C that's a great idea💡. I'll sign up. Next Wednesday I'm getting my sleeve.
I’m getting my surgery next month and your videos are making me feel not as nervous ❤️ thank you Alex
I totally get when you say your mind wants more. I have been overweight my entire life! I got Cancer and after a year of chemo, I lost 70 pounds! I am free of Cancer but I think I am going to eat a full plate and it is impossible now. You look great!!
This was so helpful to me Alex! I’m an all occasion eater! I’m not bariatric patient, however, your tip to self-care instead of eating when upset or whatever is a great idea for me! Next time I get the urge to eat when not hungry, I’m pulling out a face mask! So proud of you! 🥰💗
Loving the updates, you're doing great!
I have been thinking about the option of gastric bypass. I appreciate your insights and sharing with us!
When I had my lapband it was like that in the am, but with RNY I don't have those issues... and yep at the beginning of RNY If I didn't eat the small meals I would starving but it's not like that anymore. Don't chase that full feeling stop eating before that measure your food love because that feeling is NOT FOREVER your in the honeymoon phase
Thank you for sharing🤗having bypass May 3rd and getting anxious. I would like to see more what you eat in a day. You are doing amazing!
Love what I eat in a day!!! More please !
It's here!!!! Yay!!! Thank you ♥️
Thank you these videos are helpful. I am having gastric bypass this summer 😬
Sending good vibes! It’s gonna be great!
Are you going to document your journey?
Have you tried the fage yogurt? It’s amazing!
That scale looks like a game changer! 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽
I’ve been on a diet for a straight year and I always got the really small tortillas (so I wouldn’t have to use the big ones) one for the bottom and top…I’m definitely gonna try it your way!
Hi Alex! You're doing great and I'm definitely checking out that scale. I meal prep salmon cubes, ground turkey/chicken, and shredded chicken. These are my staples and I will pull them and make all types of meals with them. Another staple are the Mission Low Carb Whole Wheat Street Tacos.... 2 are 70 calories, 3 net carbs, and 17 grams of fiber. I use them for tacos, mini quesadillas, sandwiches with lunch meat, pizzas, nacho chips, and cut them up, place in air fryer, get them nice and crispy and toss with cinnamon and my favorite sweetener. Also you way want to try Dannon Light and Fit Greek yogurt..... OMG! It only have 12 grams of protein but it tastes amazing. It is low in carbs and sugar at 80 calories. Okay, last thing... I have also started drinking the Premier Protein Clear Water, it has 20 grams of protein. I add water and a Crystal light. I also make a decaf coffee with 1/2 a shake and some collagen. By drinking these first thing in the morning, I've already hit 44 grams of protein before I've had my first meal. I had to find my formula because I wasn't able to finish my meals which affected me reaching my goals. I tell people all of the time, FIND YOUR FORMULA! What works for you! Sorry, I know this was a lot. LOL!!!
Omg! I just bought that scale and am loving it. It takes out all the hard work. P.s. you look so great. Keep it up,Chica.
You go girl! I'm 5 weeks post op now and my dietitian recommends 6 meals a day. But you should follow your program ofcourse.
Thank you for these videos. I have surgery next week.
Once I have my baby in October I’ll think about weighing my protein because omfg I was way off lmao I be eating so much chicken and tracking a little bit of it . You’re doing amazing Alex 💕💕
You are doing a great job!! 🙏🏻👍🏻😇👏
Just an interesting tid bit....Chobani originated right here in a little country town, New Berlin NY and the owner wrote his business plan on a napkin one evening in the local pizza pub, The first plant is the old Kraft plant in the tiny hamlet of Edmeston just a few miles down the road. They provide employment for 90 percent of the locals and they are treated very well.
Hey Alex, just a suggestion but don’t put too much food on your plate at one time. You knew you could only eat half the quesadilla so only put half on your plate. Over time you’ll end up eating more than you should if you put too much on your plate. This happened to me after wls
Thanks for sharing! That’s a good tip
Great advice.
I wish I would have realized that before it’s too late (or at least used smaller plates). I have regained so much since my sleeve almost 4 years ago.
@@niyahyisrael3021 I regained 15 to 20 back and I had the gastric about 16 years ago. It can be normal and once the pouch is stretched you can't shrink it back down but you can reset your mind on it. If you're starting to feel hungry try some water or whatever your favorite fluid is sometimes when you feel hungry you're actually dehydrated. And I started eating on a small plate again and it's helped
I think those wraps are 20+ carbs each. Only if you are doing keto do you count the net carbs.
I just found your channel, I love the way you talk! ❤️ so real and warm! 😘☀️
I haven't had surgery but I've been doing low carb and calorie and a dessert that is 🔥 sugar free instant pudding mix chocolate or the cheescake one with some unsweetened vanilla almond milk and a little bit of pb2 powder . With the cheescake it reminds me of the inside or reeses and my bf loves it too!
It's like a shake? Do you add ice? Sounds good.. thanks for sharing
Thank you so much! I guess the portions aren't as scary as I was thinking. ♥️
Thank you for sharing your journey with us. I am going through the process to have gastric bypass through the VA, the process takes up to a year. But I have started seeing a nutritionist already. It's videos like yours that help me get prepared and knowing what to expect. I love veggies but I struggle to get them in. What is the drink that you are drinking to help reach those veggie goals?
Thanks for sharing. Had surgery in October, and I’m always looking for other foods and meal ideas to try. Totally relate to everything you said in this!
I'm 9 months post RNY today!! I eat trail mix alot and I add extra Peanuts to it so I cut down the chocolate intakes. Parm Crisps are Amazing! I cant use a microwave it drys out my food so I have a mini crockpot lunch warmer on my desk. I eat salad 2x a day and eat every 3 hours a Protien and Veggie combo. Good luck youre killing it!
Love your videos! I am having my surgery in the next couple months and you are very inspiring. You have mentioned that you use a skin tightening lotion. What do you use?
I had RNY April 7th 2011 and have the same problem with the mornings. I found in the mornings warm tea with just Splenda helped me before I did anything.
Girl! The ONLY thing that helped with my acne was getting on good hormone balance supplements, spironolactone(forgive the spelling), and tretinoin (again spelling)topically. The tret takes some getting used to, flaking, dryness, etc. but once you do your skin will love it
*side note! It is not something you canbe using once you start looking at pregnancy, good for me because I don’t want kids, but you could try it out and see if it works then start it back up after/between kiddos!!
Not an ad, just I don’t like going to the doctor, but I get my spiro and tret through Nurx
Please do more of these videos- what I eat in a day. It’s very helpful.
WHERE DID YOU GET YOUR PAN? I know you have a set and I have been putting off, but I NEED them. Hellllllp
I like to buy the scale, going to have my gastric sleeve in a couple of months ..keep it up
hi alex. I'm 3 months, 4 days post op and i started trying pita and tortillas. i bought my tortillas and pita pockets in trader joes for the pita i do half of one pocket and for the tortilla they are the perfect size and only 45 calories
Everything looks yummy!😋😋
I NEED THAT SCALE!!!!
U r doing great!👍 I’m 3 years post my surgery, one thing I’d like to say is the amount of food we take could be gain back. Maybe not as much as before our surgery, but def. can be like normal ppl appetite. So it is very important to learn and get used to the healthier diet at beginning stage! Keep going! U got this!! I have no regret doing this and even wish I did it earlier!! 😘😘😘
Do you ever wish you’d have got therapy for your relationship with food earlier in life?
Hi ❤ just started following you, I came across you because I searched all about gastric bypass surgery. You a so informative about what to expect and really good advice!!!… thank you ❤My question is , can you eat spicy food, coffee, garlic???… those are some of my favourites
Alex, I’m considering doing gastric bypass (did you do bypass or sleeve?) and I’m wondering why you didn’t do a the band instead? I’m trying to weigh the pros and cons of them both.
Have a beautiful day 🥰
Awesome info. I'm having my surgery in a few weeks, April 17 2023. Very excited.
Could add some black beans to that quesadilla for more protein too!
The RATIO protein yogurt is WAAAAAY better than the Oikos Pro!! I find it at Walmart and Kroger (Walmart usually has more flavors). Must try
careful with the sugar in yogurt even greek! I had my RNY IN 09 and sugar still kicks my ass!! I agree with morning tummy vs nite time tummy its much harder for me to eat solid food that early!
Totally! I’m learning what sugars bother me and what don’t. No issues with yogurt 😊
Chobani has zero sugar now! They are really good worth a try!
@@AlexandraIreneRodriguez plain yogurt with berries is super yummy. Just takes some getting used to 😊
My favorite is dannon lite and fit banana and cream flavor
What is the sauce you had on your green beans??
I’m 7 years out too 😊 I still get full quickly and my mind says otherwise lol..I can’t eat as much in the morning vs the evening too!
Are you supposed to eat until you're full or just until you're no longer hungry? The doctors and nutritionists I've talked to have always recommended to eat slowly and stop when you're no longer hungry, but not full. I'm thinking this is because if we constantly eat until we're full, it will stretch out our stomach again.
I fast a lot and only eat 2 meals a day with snacks in between. My fault and weakness is sweets it's been a challenge to not eat candy or any kind of sweets on the daily. 8 3weeks out it's still a struggle.
Hi Alex. I had lap band and yes it is much harder to eat in the morning. My dr said it was because of dehydration from sleep and the stomach shrinks.
Is lap band for someone who doesn't need to loose as much weigh
Hi, love you so much, please link your top, I’m loved in it😍
Hey al! I just tried twisted dough. I found them on tiktok. You should give them a try low cal, high protein cookie dough 😋
Hi Sweetie!! I don’t know if this will be helpful to you. Have you tried Ratio yogurt? It’s keto. It’s made with avocado, so it’s very thick and creamy!! I have it for breakfast just about every morning. Lots of protein, too. Love you!! 🧡🥰
I’m having issues with eating too fast and it feels like food is stuck in my throat 😒 I’m learning to eat slowly. I went out to eat last week and I had left overs for 3 days 😂
Hey do you lactate any milk?
lol I'm opposite, things go down better in the morning than later in the day. Funny how everyone's so different on this journey. I don't have any staples at this point because I've been dealing with a stricture. My next dilation is Monday so I'm hoping round two will hold and allow me to eat better. I'm sorta stuck in this soft food stage because of the stricture. I'm at 8 weeks today, so 6 weeks behind you lol.
I just love when you share daily vlogs 🌸 or makeup videos💗 thanks to you I am fearless 💪🏼
I’m 1 month PO and I eat 5x a day to try to reach my protein goals. I’m still on soft foods so I’m eating a lot of fish, scrambled egg, meatballs, cheese and yogurt. I can’t wait till I can eat raw crunchy fruits and vegetables again lol
I'd be dipping that quesadilla in either plain Greek yogurt or Skyr (even thicker Icelandic yogurt). I'm 8 years out in June & need to get back on track... Heather xo
Love this for help and ideas! I’m having mine next December!
I love Oikos! 🔥🔥🔥
Now that you mention it I have higher restriction in the morning and for some reason can eat more in the evenings. How odd.
Same here!
I’m almost three months post op! I use that same quesadilla and I’ll make a pizza quesadilla with it. I love the light and fit Greek yogurts. I’ll do like 1/4 of an green apple and PB. We make salsa chicken in crock pot and make nachos with it with quest chips. I love the Taylor farms salad kits too!
2 1/2 years out, at goal since month 10. My must haves are Fairlife shakes, Built bar puffs, turkey deli meat and zero net carb bread from Aldi.
You’re doing great! Don’t let the haters get to you. Much love from TX. ❤️
You’re looking good mama!
I just got RNY yesterday, so I’m watching videos to remind me that this pain is temporary and it’ll be worth it in the end 😭
Oikos vanilla is gooooood
Does anyone know what the name of the sauce was she put on her dinner?
Bulgogi sauce!
@@carlashreeve445 Thank you so much!🤗
oikos and ratio keto friendly are good
I had the sleeve in 2017 and yes certain food don't agree with me
Please do more! I’m thinking about getting the surgery BUT I’m trying to slowly get into low cal and smarter options when it comes to foods
So I’m like wow she can eat oils and jalapeños because all that upsets my stomach and I had gastric bypass exactly a year ago and I’m now eating 3 meals a day normal sizes and still drinking protein because ya can never get enough lol but I find if I have avocado I get full so quickly anyone else? Good dessert idea yummy berries and sugar free whip cream yum
I love you videos they are helping me so much! But it is crazy how different the programs are. We have to eat ever 3 hours. They tell us to set timers.
They call that grasing 😩 once you start grasing you can’t stop it’s a struggle of mine snacking all day in little portions through out the day! 😂
Yes! I watch my 600lb life and the surgeon says to just eat 3x a day because grazing will make you eat more than you need to
Grazing...
@@samthunders3611 they write it differently in England
@@heyikindalikeyou the word is Grazing
Your wrote grasing
That's not a word
It's not a legitimate word at all
And surprise I've many British friends
It's Grazing
Meaning to eat a bit here and there all day like cows do they graze...in the natural habitat .
Horses...cattle..
No such thing as Grasing lol
Im a published photo journalist I'm pretty good with words
And expressions
Yes! Please do more of what you eat 💕
I clicked so fast.
I never thought of the quesadilla as an option, went to the store and the low carb tortillas. Can’t wait for dinner!! 🤗 thank you!!
did you ever used to binge eat before you're surgery?
I’m 7 days PO gastric bypass and I am really struggling emotionally. I am still having discomfort and feeling weak and tired. I’m really regretting my decision right now and just want to feel like my “old” self again. Please tell me it gets better? ☹️
It gets better. I’m 4 weeks out. The first 2 weeks were so emotional for me. I cried so much. Now I’m at the point where I’m happy with my decision.
@@jerseybomb thank you so much. ❤️
Meatball recipe plz!!
I had gastric bypass 3.8.22 I am a week out and struggling with the liquids. But I know its worth it.
You’re at the toughest stage! You got this, it gets so much better ❤️
Sending good vibes your way Chelsea. Take it one day at a time. YOU GOT THIS GIRL!!!☺💚
Dinner recipe???
How much have you lost sorry if its too forward my friend getting the surgery she is wondering :)
HEY CHULA WHAT KIND OF ADOBO DID YOU USE BTW I AM LOVING AND REALLY APPRECIATING YOUR VIDEO'S SO GLAD I FOUND YOUR CHANNEL ♥️ I HAVE BEEN WORKING WITH MY TEAM AT NORTHWESTERN AND HONESTLY AS A MOTHER IT'S TOUGH TO STICK TO THE PLAN MY DOCTOR AND TEAM HAVE GIVEN ME TO FOLLOW! I HAVE LOST AND REGAIN AND LOST AND REGAIN AND AS OF RIGHT NOW THEY STILL HAVE ME ON HOLD FOR THE PROCEDURE. I HOPE THIS TOOL CAN HELP ME BETTER MY LIFE. I WISH TO LIVE A LONG HEALTHY LIFE FOR MY BABIES AND FOR MY SELF. LIVE IS NOT EASY BUT IT'S BEAUTIFUL IF TOU FIND BEAUTY IN IT. SO PROUD OF YOU AND KEEP THESE VIDEOS COMING GOD BLESS YOU HERMOSA 🙏😇
Thank u Gorgeous
I had a bypass dec 2021 and my nutritionist wants me eating nothing but protein, and I crave raw or fresh veggies. I find myself eating very small portions all day, and like you said I listen to my body. I am very bad with water though.
😘😍💝
👍❤️🙏
I’m 20 years out and still can’t eat scrambled eggs. I can’t eat chicken breast either. Just too dry. Hang in there.
What are you talking bout you ‘won’t be cute’ YOU’RE ALWAYS CUTE! 🔥
Iam sorry but there is no way you had weightloss surgery 😳😳 you use to be waaaaay skinnier before the "surgery "
👍❤️🙏
