Garlic WARNING!!!!



Recommended Posts

Is there anything better then pan roasted garlic ? you bet, MORE pan roasted garlic.

well before being banded i could eat a pound of the good stuff, now not so much.

yesterday i ate only a few small cloves of this tasty treat. and last night found that it now creates a very big problem. it was never a problem in the past but now,,,, :bananapowerslide:

:painkiller:

even the dogs didnt want around me. :)

so just like a glass of wine or a shot of vodka, a little goes a long ways.

yep its a gross topic but it is what it is.

It doesn't matter what I eat anymore.... just the thought of food makes me gasssssssssy beyond belief. And trying to hold em in all day long at work is a challenge, but one good thing is when I get to goal, I'll have tight butt cheeks :eyebrows:

Its not a gross subject...not in Bandland lol.

I don't think I could cook without garlic!:biggrin1: I got through spirts, sometimes I get very gassy, then it goes away, and then it hits me again. Welcome to bandland!:target:

The gas isnt a problem,unless im right in front of someone (unless i want to clear a line) i just let em riiiiiiiiippppppppp. its the new and improved smell from smaller amounts of stuff thats killing my family.(and my dogs)

i used to be able to drink a fair amount of tequila with no problem, now two or three shots and im hammered. :faint:

I wonder if i can ever eat pickeld eggs again ? :heh:

Funny how a band around the stomach changes the body's reaction to some foods. Egg salad now leaves me doubled over in pain from gas. What the heck!

ROFL

This thread is too funny. First of all, LOVE garlic, and it's so good for you too.

The band makes you gassy? Cripes I'm already like a baloon deflating pre band. If I wasn't so fat I'd be hitting the walls with deflation.

It's going to get worse??

:target: What is it with egg salad? ! Got stuck and pain!! I thought it would be perfect, but no way - and this was before my last fill. There is no way I would try it now. Garlic I would and will do in a heartbeat, problem is I like it on bread and there is nooooooooooooooo way I'm going there. Oh the memories!!

Garlic hasn't bothered me yet.

But anything Soy? Oh my. Unfortunately, the Protein bars I eat are mostly soy based (South Beach).

Good thing I have my own office :target:

I think egg salad is great -- I can actually eat it now, but not other kinds of eggs -- go figure. I do know that sometimes mayo is the culprit in tummy pains though -- I use miracle whip -- have you tried that?

EEEWWW - Miracle Whip is terrible to me! I grew up on mayo and my hubby grew up on Miracle Whip, so we have both in the frig. Can't stand the stuff. I'll just stick with tuna and chicken salad - the boiled eggs just don't agree with me. Don't have problems with eggs cooked scrambled or over easy, go figure!?!?!

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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... :(
