Is Salad A Red Flag Food?



Recommended Posts

Everyone is different..some people have no problems with anything...lucky them...and then there is me..everything changes ..sometimes I can and sometimes I can't..so I have come to rely on the feel of things...if after the first two small bites I feel like it will become a stuck situation I stop...don't care what the cost of the dish or if I slaved for a while preparing..pbing or whatever is awful and I will try to avoid doing that...sometimes its hard to be a lapbander...

Thanks for sharing. Well my doctor gave me a list of "red flag " foods to stay away from. I just assumed this was universal list for lap band patients. I know hot dogs is on the list for an example just couldn't remember about salad. But it sounds like everyone does fine with it. Good eats!

hm, i eat a ff turkey hot dog every now and then. Protein is good and i can deal with it being low calorie. i am not a sodium person, so this little sodium does not bother me at all.

all the best my dear :)

I just noticed that your only a week before me, but I can't start solids until week 7!

I know isn't it crazy how surgeons can be so different with their plans compared to others. LOL

I am a little nervous, at the same time my band is completely empty as I just went to my surgeons office yesterday because I had trapped air in my band after surgery and she removed the air from the band. I don't go back for almost another 4-6 weeks.

Next week is a family bbq I am making homemade potato salad, but I will put a little on the side and make mine 'lower' in fat. I am nervous about eatting a hot dog, but I will just remember to take very tiny small bites and chew till that baby is mush ..LOL Oh, and watermelon for dessert!

ya have to let me know how you did on your solids when you are able to ... :)

Agree... I prefer the oil one, not the creamy! It is so good! Reminds me of Olive Garden salad dressing! Love it!

I might have to try some of these salad dressings suggested. I have a hard time committing to them because it seems the majority I do not like and they go to waste.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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.
