I ate pizza for the first time since surgery..mixed emotions..



Recommended Posts

ok everybody...here's what I tried today.....AWESOME!

3 slices of sandwich size pepperoni (sliced thin by the deli)

I nuked these for 30 seconds in the microwave (on a bed of paper towels)

(Most of the grease goes into the paper towels.)

topped each one with a few drops of Contadina pizza sauce (squeeze bottle) smeared around a bit

topped that with a couple Tablespoons low fat mozzerella (divided between all three)

Put back into the microwave for another 15-20 seconds until cheese is melted.

The pepperoni gets so crispy...yet has all sorts of flavor...NO SOGGY CRUST!

About 2 carbs total for all three (from the pizza sauce and cheese).

No idea of calories until I get back to the store and get the Nutritional info from the deli.

But this was great! 3 of them were a satisfying portion because it's crunchy, gooey, cheesy, salty, pizza, pepperoni flavor packed!!!!

Just reading that made me hungry for the first time since surgery. I will have to try that in a few weeks. YUMMY!

Tiff, pizza isn't my favorite food either, spaghetti and meat sauce is, but now i've found a new favorite, extra lean ground beef made into tiny tiny meatballs and brusselsprouts . . i love that now. . . I can have about 6 of those tiny meatballs = 4oz and 4 1/2 brusselsprouts. . . can't even finish that though. . . the sleeve is something else. . .

      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! 😞
