  7. Yes, you can eat "normal foods". Once your sleeve heals and you've progress to that point. I can eat what ever i like, but I do not do well with simple sugar either. I choose not to eat bread, pasta and the list goes on. Everyone is different. But yes, i do eat regular foods. I cook the same foods for the me as the family. I just eliminate what doesn't work for me. I Love my sleeve. Hang in there it gets way better.

  16. Hi I just responded to your earlier post.
  17. Try Walmart I think it's all in the label hat it must say nutritional. Yes, some are ok to use with the ebt . Good luck
  18. First it is nice I think that your here looking for further answers on how to support her. My hubby went to my last pre op class with me and that helped A ton. My program require us to bring some one if possible. In the beginning, I missed food and one time I was mad at others= lost my best friend food. But boy am I so much happier, better. And yes my good marriage/relationship got even better. Keys : is support classes together discuss it , try it if you two agree. At least one. So you know what to expect after Surgery. You can talk with the nutritionist together if the pre op classes are finish. Relax it really gets better It's a process!!! Good luck
  19. Sweet Susie I decided to wait as we'll. I'm working on a few things too. Like saving too.
