Protein Bars

Ask at your center. with the band that I have they said regular diet after six weeks so I am still in the process of learning what I can and cannot tolerate. I barely tolerate things in the morning and have to wait until later in the day for things like protein bars. Still have problems with dense meats and anything with a skin like apples and pears unless I peel them first or use canned fruit. It is a learning experience.
 
Carol-For RNY patients it is usually 5 or 6 months before protein bars can be tolerated. They are very dense and can be difficult to digest. Check with your nutritionist to be sure.

It's been 8 years and I still have trouble with meat and skins... I refuse to get fills because I am tired of all the throwing up. I put slit of my weight back on over the years, but now I found some portion shakes and other nutritional products that have helped me to take the weight back off without getting sick every time I eat... Lol
