Lettuce (May have already been answered)

I get stuck easy on salad but will try it and risk it when I am craving them but I usually eat the top and none of the green but a bite or 2.

I will try when I am out or in a rush to get the dollar side salad from McDonalds or Wendys and chop a piec of chicken over it(like the dollar mcchicken) but usually eat the chicken and throw most of the salad away(good thing it only costs a dollar)

This is a great question. I have been wondering the same thing. But what bothers me the most is bread. Any kind of bread food. Absolutely HORRIBLE. meat too can be a problem but not as bad as the bread crap. Steamed veggies go down really nice. All you can do is try alittle bit and see what happens.

I too have salad just about every other night for din din... I just make an effort to chew chew chew the salad... I eat Arugula salad - but if youre not a fan, and your worried about it being stuck, try shredded lettuce (subway salads are made w. shredded lettuce fyi). Its a smaller cut and may work for you.

My Dr. told me to stay away from salad only bc theres not much nutritional value in it - but throw some chicken/shrimp/fish on it and it works fine for me =)

Good Luck.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
