  1. i too have not had any issues with food. I feel the same way as another person that said they almost wish they would have an issue. I get scared that i don't have any problems and this may lead me back down the bad path lol. i just mainly stick to the chicken and turkey. i've been cleared for lean red meat but have found that i don't have a taste for it anymore and don't find it good like i used to. As far as salads and such, i LOVE them and am happy they still love me lol
  2. I've heard stories, some of them horror stories, about the hair falling out but can't find anything about extra oiliness.
  3. I'm 6 months post-op. I was wondering if anyone has had an issue with oily hair post-op? I used to be able to wash my hair every other day but now my hair gets so oily the next day after washing it. Anyone else?

  15. i made the cauliflower crust pizza...it was pretty decent...didn't taste like cauliflower to me and i hate cauliflower. i'll be adding more spices to the crust next time just to give it a lil more flavor. i used turkey pepperoni and it was wonderous!!!
  16. i made a cauliflower crust using finely chopped cooked cauliflower, egg, low fat mozzarella cheese, and some oregeno...bake it in a oven for 450 degrees for about 12-15 min...i don't like cauliflower at all and i couldn't tell that this was made from it. i used turkey pepperoni and it was wonderous...i will be adding some more spices next time since it didn't blow me over but it's a pizza crust that is low carb and it let me have pizza which i LOVE!!! LOL

  24. i'm not having the hunger pains (i don't think) but i'm having severe nausea...my stomach has growled at times and then i have a shake and it tames it down (or ticks it off lol)...my pre op is 3-5 shakes a day and water...normally i would eat a cracker to help with the nausea but that's a no go for this. just trying to muster through it...5 days left!
