are you able to eat mushrooms



Recommended Posts

Hi! has anyone had difficulty with mushrooms while being banded? If so how are you able to tolerate them?

Any advice is much appreciated

I'm still able to eat them but I'm very careful to chew thoroughly since my last fill. It doesn't take much to push me from OK to STUCK and a hunk of rubbery mushroom cap could definitely do it.

Hi there, they are a little rubbery for me. I reckon they are all about how they are cooked.

It was a couple years postOp for me before I was ready to try 'em again.

Raw is absolutely no trouble and a real delight; cooked is important to avoid 'rubberizing' them and cut into SMALL pieces.

Let's pretend 'a friend' showed me how important CHEWING THOROUGHLY is to avoid unpleasantness....

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
