:biggrin1: :biggrin1: :biggrin1: What were your favorite pigout foods before surgery?

VS. What your favorite foods are after surgery? Just thought it would be gas to know.

Mexican and Mexican. Yummy!!!!!!!!!!

Carbs - cakes, muffins, Cookies. Once I started on those foods I couldnt stop. The sugar rush was addictive.

I've discovered since banding that if I dont eat them I can avoid them quite easily. But if I were going to break out those are still the foods I'd head to.

But overall I was a healthy eater, just too big an eater. So I dont have a ton of problem foods I need to avoid or that I think about all the time.

pre banding = Cookies, cakes, any junk food actually.

post banding = chips and dip. Sometimes I eat this for a meal. Not good, I know.

SHrimp Fried RIce with RIbs!!!! Hot wings, Hot wings, Hot wings

NOW-- hot wings, chips and dip oh my gosh Paula I do this too. LOL sometimes it is my meal. How weird is that, lol and yep it is bad:faint:

Pre-banding: Cereal! I would eat 3 big bowls of it at a time. Ice cream. Diet Cokes

Post-banding: I never eat cereal. I still eat ice cream. This is weird, but I pig out on Zone Perfect bars...that means I eat two instead of one, but only sometimes. I figure it cures the chocolate craving, and at least I get a lot of protein. How's that for a rationalization? LOL! I like pita chips and hummas...why do all the "empty" foods go down so easy?

Dee Dee, chips and dip for me are like krypton for Superman. My mouth is watering just talking about'em.

mousecrazy, I *thought* I was the only one that gorged on cerel in pre-banding days. I was going to put that on my original reply, but thought others wouldnt understand.... *sigh* thank God I cant do that anymore.

I could eat almost a whole bag of Captain Crunch at one sitting... I used to do it all of the time!

Haven't even tried that now, Thank God!

I found that I ate out a lot. I ate alot of Olive Garden and On The Border. I ate a lot of sweets, breads, and anything with carbs. I had a bunch of "last meals" Everyday was a last meal for me!

Pre-banding: Any thing that was not too stale or green and fuzzy!!!

Post-band: I LOVE GUALMOLE (spelling?).....actually any Mexican food....this tastes that best to me now!!!
