  • I eat what I want and as much as I feel comfortable with. I don't miss much and like our forum member Pink Dahlia said: "I'm so stinkin' thrilled with my weight loss i dont even care about what i cant

  • It's been 3 1/2 yrs for me and I can eat pretty much whatever I want (cept thick pizza crust, pineapple chunks, and pancakes) just in really small quantities. But you asked if we ever miss eating some

  • I don't miss anything but I can pretty much eat anything if I "choose" to. I stay away from bread, pasta and chocolate(lol) but when I really am in need of a burger I have one. I love a burger on an

Foods that slide through your band easily and do not give you the satiety signal. Foods like soups' date=' chips, Cookies, refried Beans, many mexican foods, crackers.[/quote']

Would you consider cottage cheese a slider?

Would you consider cottage cheese to be a slider food?

Don't know what happened with those duplicate messages:0 sorry!

yes... for the most part. I have never been stuck on cottage cheese.

I probably wouldn't since it's usually a low fat, low cal food. It might go down easily but if it's a snack food it should give you some satiety?

In my mind, a slider food is a food that is low nutrition, high glycemic and gives no satiety.

Of course, one could over indulge in any food and have bad results?

That's what I was thinkinging since its a good source of Protein, but since it is a really soft food I thought it could be considered slider. Thanks.

I like the challenge. To feed myself healthy, to fill my sweet tooth, etc with healthy things. It's fun for me.

The only thing I miss is All You Can Eat Korean BBQ. I COULD still go if I wanted but what's the point? Too expensive for what I can eat.

Once you start losing, (I'm almost 3 months in and 52 pounds down) you'll see how it's just not worth it, there are tons of healthy stuff I can eat, and quite a few unhealthy stuff I can treat myself to.

I have cravings for chips at times and I knew this chipaholic would. When it gets over whelming I eat a pickle not the skin just the pickle its crunchy and salty and im good

After 3 1/2 years, I have very little appetite for food! The thought, makes me go yuck! I eat mostly fish, had baby calves liver lastnight. It was very tender and I was able to eat it, and digest it fine. It was the only "red" meat I have eaten recently. I was at a convention this week, and they fixed some pork, it was good, too. I don't miss most foods, now! Karen
