I remember in the beginning, I was able to eat just about anything once in my solid stage but as I got more and more fills, any type of bread, Pasta, pizza, sushi, tortillas were a no go! I'm at a 6.7 cc in a 10 cc band and I think I'm at my limit. So as you get tighter, most people simply cannot get these food items to go down comfortably but I know some people without any problems, not sure how filled they are though?

I have not been able to eat a sandwich or wrap from day one (2 1/2 years). The good news is that you can get creative and find things that help satisfy the crave. I can eat a few reduced fat wheat thins with my sandwich stuff on them (chew, chew, chew), or wrap the stuff in a piece of lettuce. or roll up a thin slice of lunchmeat with things inside .......

I was just thinking about what I will and will not be able to eat moving forward. I love sandwiches. I hate the idea of having to get them up, but if I have to, then I will. I was good for making them w/ bulky rolls before surgery and have no plan of trying such a thing now that I have the band. However, I was hoping I would be able to try Fiber one wheat things etc...I guess time will tell. I dread having anything to do with getting food "stuck"...

I totally agree with you on that. but i know that we can get creative with out sandwich craves. during my pre-op diet i made a BLT without the bread. i jus wrapped it up in the lettuce with tomatoes and mayo. it was awsome and i didnt even miss the bread. i also read on here that toastin the bread my help it get down easier. i have not had my band filled yet, and right now it is a mental game. so we all gotta do our best and stay strong and remember y we got the band in the first place. im not perfect but im trying my best good luck on your band journey

Today I ate a small turkey and cheese wrap from subway for dinner. I do not have a fill and have not tried bread, rice, or pizza. I usually can't eat much but I was starving. It went down fine but I felt stuffed afterwards. I have lost 22 pounds in 6 weeks so I am not complaining. Good luck.
