What Are Your Cant Haves

Elizabeth Anne, I bought mine on Amazon.com and got the chocolate varitey as well they came together for around 12 dollars.

I ordered mine from Amazon too. When I got mine, I noticed that it came from a town about 20 minutes from me, lol. I had no idea when I ordered it. It tastes really good in my smoothies, but I've never tried it in much else.

There is really nothing I can't eat as long as I pay attention, chew and eat slowly. With that said, if I am anxious or tense, I can forget about eating...rushing in anyway will cause PB or being severely uncomfortable. Mornings, I am just not able to eat at all for a few hours or more unless I drink some hot liquids. Needless to say, I drink a lot of shakes or Water. Oh, and the car.... Not a good idea unless you have a bag nearby. In my case, it's not enough time to focus and chew properly... Unfortunately it's going to be trial and error. I have found it helpful to journal my mood/emotion as well as my food which is how I discovered when I have the most problems.

Funny about the car....It is only recently that I have NOTbeen eating my Breakfast on my drive to work. It usually takes me 30 minutes with all the traffic. Perfect amount of time to eat and keep my eye on the clock to time in between bites.

Rice. That is one thing I for sure can never eat. No matter how it's cooked. I can no longer eat chicken or turkey breast and those were my favorite. bread is hit or miss. Most times, though, I can't eat it. Hamburgers are hit and miss as well. Oh, and fresh or stir-fry broccoli. I can't eat it.

It really is hard for me to plan meals each day for myself AND my son.

For those who can't eat turkey, chicken, or beef, how do you get your Protein? Most all my protein comes from meat sources. There is no way I could get all my protein in if I couldn't eat meat. I refuse to live on protein shakes....I know their are eggs, cheese, and milk also, but meat is your biggest source of protein.

Did I hear a few people say they can't eat shrimp or lobster? Please tell me you are the only one!?!? Shellfish is pretty much the only Protein I eat, other than the shakes. Say it isnt so!

So far I can eat shrimp and lobster. When I mentioned it to my nutritionist, she was surprised as she's heard many of us can't. I was eating steamed chicken & blended broccoli from Chinese takeout before my first fill and did fine. After the fill, no more chicken, no matter how much I chewed. So for now, it's steamed shrimp & broccoli. I had lobster the night before my first fill as it was my birthday the day of my fill. That went down with no problem but I haven't had it since so I'm hoping it won't be a problem now. It's not like I eat it every week. It's a treat.

I cant do tortilla's. I tried it two different times, chewing really well the second time and still got stuck. So now I just have my chicken salad/tuna salad on a piece of toast.

Both times was flour...I haven't tried, nor do I think I will, the corn ones. It's weird I can have bread but a bite of tortilla forget about it.

Welp. Tried a plain, no bun all beef hotdog last night. Nope. That sucker killed me for about 4 hours until I finally had to bring it up. I had bad heartburn all night and woke up with it STILL in my pouch. Sucker would not go down. Check that off the list. Yuck.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      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! 😞
