The "What you can't eat anymore" thread



Recommended Posts

So this is a thread for lists of things you just can't or won't eat anymore. I'll start.

Can't eat:

Flour tortillas

Hamburgers

Pasta

Rice

eggs

Won't eat:

Soda (I was a TOTAL Pepsi addict pre-band)

Any liquid with sugar in it - I refuse to "drink" my calories

candy, chocolate, cakes, anything considered "dessert"

Most bread (sometimes I can get a very thin slice of toasted Jewish rye down)

French Fries (because I love them too much and I'm afraid I'll binge)

Pre-band, I would come home from work after a long day, pop a loaf of frozen garlic-buttered french bread in the oven, and eat the entire loaf with 2 or 3 Pepsi's for dinner. Good grief I can't even IMAGINE doing that now! Just the thought literally makes me shudder.

How about you all?

I'm a year and a half out and still can't eat: Steak or bread.

I can eat thin crust pizza but usually can't even finish (1) whole piece.

I can eat just about everything except dried apricots. Dry meat such as grilled chops also give me problems.

I don't think there is anything I can't eat.

Have been afraid to eat bread, rice or any starch thats white.

I am careful with steak, chicken and pork.

Love the morning Protein shakes.

I had my first fill on Monday afternoon and the rest of this week I thought "Well that didin't do any good, as my scale was stuck and I hadn't had any problems with eating" Weighed this morning and was down 3 pounds.

Have some faith and chill out Terri!!!!!!

Sometimes I can't figure out if it's the food that's causing me problems, or me eating too fast or not chewing well enough, because I'm still struggling with not eating like a ravenous pig.

Plus, my fills have been keeping me on my toes. This last one took me near a week before I could eat solids - about half of everything was coming up. But now, 2? weeks out from that fill, I can eat fine again, if not too well.

With all that said, I guess my answer is: BEATS ME! ;)

(ETA: I have only taken the rare sip or two of my husband's pop since surgery)

The only thing that consistently gives me problems is chicken breast meat. Everthing else is hit and miss.

So far I haven't found anything that I *can't* eat. I don't know if it helps or hurts, but I can feel when everything I eat or drink passes through the band. So I'm always so aware of it... but I've tried bites here and there of pretty much everything, and haven't had a problem yet.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      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!!
