kidney issues

[flaphatguy]

Have an issue with my kidney, have stage 3 kidney disease with 1 kidney left. My nephrologist is telling me to limit my protein intake, how important is protein is to lose weight prior to surgery?

I would suggest you have this conversation with your surgeon. We are not remotely qualified to determine your protein needs based on your health issues.

That is a serious question that requires a conversation with your nutritionist and nephrologist. Sorry i have no input for you. I've not been diagnosed with any kidney issues, not yet anyway. Good luck, i hope they come up with a plan where you can lose weight, get your protein in and not damage your kidney any further.

thank you for responding - am still 2 months away from surgery. After review of current status with no weight loss via the following diets,
keto
12/8 fasting
2000 a day calories.

am going to do a balanced healthy diet until I meet with my endocrinologist next week. love the idea of potatoes again.

Wow, you have a lot going on. Were it me I would have a first-rate nutritionist and my surgeon work out a plan post-haste.

 

[flaphatguy]

been looking for a first rate nutritionist - but have been unsuccessful in my efforts. Getting down to 6 weeks now before surgery will have to keep myself on a semi liquid diet at this point.

What does your nephrologist say about how you are supposed to do a diet that must be protein heavy for the rest of your life? And I don't know much about how different types of protein would be better?

 

[flaphatguy]

Do to the fact I have 1 kidney - he says that protein should be limited to 80 grams a day. and that I need to have long grain wheat in my diet. He is telling me to stop the keto diet but have been on a keto type diet for years and going against that is the mental challenge because when i eat carbs I get hungry and need to eat more. so I feel frustrated about food.

80 grams of protein is fairly standard for your weight loss surgery plan, so I don't see an issue there. Another person posted a kidney issue and the guide their doctor had given them. So you may want to read that. Use the search bar and search GOUT, as that's partially her issue.

There is nothing wrong with carbs. The problem is refined carbs. Stick to whole grains and vegetables. Both fruits and lots of vegetables have carbs. And important nutrients. Whole grain carbs are filling and do not cause more hunger. Refined, over processed garbage food has additives that DO cause hunger.

Stick to whole grain and natural carbs. Potatoes. Oatmeal. Quinoa. Berries. Butternut Squash. The list goes on. Avoid Instant potatoes. Instant oatmeal. Canned Fruit. Etc.

Hope you find that nutritionist soon and they can help you find a healthy meal plan to meet your needs.
