I know you've already heard this' date=' but you will need to take smaller bites and chew into a paste. Except donuts. Flour will concentrate into a plug so don't eat them for that reason and for all the other reasons.

I know what you mean about eating dry foods. I struggle too, but if I take a very small bite(baby spoon size) and chew, they go down. Or, I add wing sauce to the chicken or salsa or some other low fat, low carb soupy sauce.

I like dipping white meat chicken in hummus. Hummus even has a little Protein.< /p>

I can't eat steak, medium rare or well done, doesn't matter. I learned a long time ago that I don't do well with Bagels either. Dry meats are a no-no. As for a donut, well I tried one a few months back and it went down great, unfortunately! Some times asparagus won't go down right and it comes back up, I think it's about the stringiness in the fibers.

I;m a complete unfill at the moment, so all may change should I get filled in the future.

I 'caved' and ate a donut at work a couple of weeks ago. I was so SICK for hours afterwards. So, now I know...I won't ever do that again!

I am almost 3 months out and I have had 2 fills. I haven't foud anything I can't eat yet. I have eaten - in small amounts - Pasta, rice, tortillas with no problems. I eat chicken, pork, and beef. I tried pizza once and had no problems. I have also eaten a few tortilla chips. I haven't tried bread, or cakes or donuts but think it best to stay away from that. Not sure if I am lucky or if this will change as I get my band filled more.

I have yet to run into any issues, I'm only about to be 6 weeks out, and have been working meats back into my menu over the last two. But yeah, I've pretty much tried everything I used to eat that I can do at this time (everything was healthy, so I had nothing to worry about with re-introducing them!). I have tried a few different breads (well, not white) but normal wheat bread & flat breads and they have gone down just fine. Although I have yet to see if I can still handle them after my first fill, but when that time comes around I shall see.

I'm 7 months post op and I can eat anything as long as I take small bits and chew good I don't have any problems. What gets me is eating too fast, not chewing enough and too big a bit. You would think I'd know better by now. Lol

I am no longer able to eat bagels!!!! This is kind of sad.

I thought I would try it toasted with a bit of butter and mall bites, chewed well...... Alas, I learned the hard way with a major stuck feet, lesson learned.....

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
