Sometimes when life gets busy, I miss eating lazy... fast bigger bites. .

I drink shakes because I am in a hurry and can't take the time to eat right when running for the kids.

If there was a band that took away my desire for cupcakes...

Passed a group of people easting very lovely looking, huge bowls of chopped salad.... it looked great. I seem to miss being able to eat the quantiy of food I used to eat !

Also tuna sandwiches, steaks, even hot fries from fast foos establishments.....

But, I agree with previous poster who spoke about the benefits of being banded.... like....

actually being able to take a bath !!!! and not displacing so much Water

Having my pants falling off me !

Fitting in to smaller size clothes that I was hanging on to for "someday these/this will fit",

Having people choose to sit next to me on train/bus,

compliments,

not having to pee every 10 minutes(!)

all good, in balance.

I eat whatever I want as far as sweets, etc go.

The only thing I could honestly say I will miss eating is this delicious hot beef/mozzarella cheese/cream cheese/pepper sandwiches that this local shop makes. We only used to get them a couple times a year, but I wouldn't be able to handle the bread anymore. And fresh french bread :)

OMG...... That sounds sooooo good...lol

I was always a sweets girl. I love sweets. I can't really consume beads anymore. I get that stuck feeling. So I just stay away. Haven't bought a loaf since February! I miss cakes and pies.

Everyone always tells me, ”one bite won't kill you!” But they don't understand that leads to 42 bites... Lol

I had a bite of brownie today. Then had a half size grilled chicken salad for lunch. I have the tendency of feeling overwhelming guilt when I eat something I shouldn't. Like I'm letting someone down, but the only person I'm truly disappointing is myself.

My sweet tooth fix is actually frozen light cool whip. Takes away my sweet tooth and its got very little sugar and only 25 calories. Just a thought. :)

I like the comment about mourning warm/hot foods. I am sooo tired of eating cold meals, after everyone else is done. But you wanted to know what foods I mourn...at my stage, I can eat most anything, but I definitely steer away from steak. I miss a good filet mignon with shrooms.

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

      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! 😞
