Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass    |  How much sodium a day? I've learned from folks on here to watch my carbs, fat intake, and sodium. But I do not know what watching sodium means. How much should I be taking in maximum? How is it calculated? Does it change as I lose weight? |

Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery. Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.  |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | I found lean ground turkey patties from Jennie-O. Hubby grilled one up for me with a slice of lf cheese. Was very flavorful, particularly since Ive been on a liquid bland diet. There is no fat and has 20 grams of protein just for thepatty. But I was concerned on the sodium - because it was prepared for me. Was wondering, if I just purchased ground turkey, and pressed it myself into a patty, if there would be less sodium. Have you any experience? |

| Super Moderator  | Sodium is included in a lot of foods, and keep in mind that we do need sodium so, 0 intake is not good. However, processed food often include a lot of sodium, so read the labels. It may say sodium, or NaCl. The recommended total intake per day as NaCl is around 5-7g, the upper limit being 10g. Not that you can't take over that, and will make you sick, but this is recommended for long term health management. To my patients with hypertention, I instruct them (or have the nutritionist instruct them) to limit the daily intake to below 7g.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | I got this info from the web - I threw the package mine came in away. I see though that it is not fat free like I thought. Hmm... So for future reference, Kenya - yours sounds more nutritious... right? |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | Reading labels and paying attention to this is all very new to me. It would be helpful to have a cheat sheet with exactly how much I should be intaking including the measurements like Doc provided. Kenya - what brand is your turkey patty please? |
