Cake in soft foods phase?



Recommended Posts

I dont think so - not because you should never enjoy a piece of cake but because cake must be soft, but like bread, it is a DANGER food. it is very very easy to get stuck and pb on cake, its soft, spongy and soaks up fluids in your stomach. You eat a tiny piece that grows to twice its size in your pouch and before you know it, slime and vomiting. I wouldnt risk it.

Everyone's danger foods are different, I could always eat bread and dense cake like carrot cake, but soft muffins and cakes, no way.

I agree with Effiepoo that there will always be a reason to have a treat. I am not saying you should never have treats. I just think that at two weeks out you are still in the learning phase about retraining yourself on food habits. This is a will power diet until you start to get restriction.

Ask your doctor and if u don't want to out of guilt because of it not being a good food choice-dont eat it. My birthday was last Wed and it was the first time in 36 yrs I didn't binge on cake! I didn't even have any! Yay me! But u do u and don't make a decision u will feel guilty about later!

Goodluck!

I had one tiny (and I do mean tiny) taste of my fiance's slice and I was fine. I was never planning on having a whole slice anyway. The band is something I have to live with forever, and I can't see myself never eating cake or "junk" again. I will never, however, eat it in the portions I used to. The band is teaching me moderation, something I was never able to learn in 27 years. Thanks everyone for your advice!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
