Toast a slider?



Recommended Posts

Hey everyone, I was just wondering if toast is a slider food? When I eat Protein I have so much restriction at 2 months out and sometimes I can feel it creeping back up my throat. I had the smallest bit of salmon last night and felt SO full after. Well, I decided to have my toast last night and I managed one large slice of toast in 15 minutes with a nice satiated feeling but not a stuffed feeling like with protein. I just wanted to check if that's normal. There is always this feeling of..."oh..that went down well. That was a big slice of toast...oh no, have I stretched my sleeve?" LOL. The paranoia set in. It's not like I could sit and eat toast after toast, though; one was definitely enough, just surprised my tummy didn't reject it.

you betcha! I love toast cause it doesn't cause that tight yuk creeping out of your throat feeling. . .I can easily down 2 slices of toast without a problem, but give me 1 chicken leg, good lord!

haha! That's very true, isn't it? Protein is so filling on the sleeve but that toast just seems to go down like a treat!

I totally know what you mean! If I eat fish or chicken I fill up sooooo quick and it just sits in my throat which is so uncomfortable, but if I have toast or Jennie-o Turkey, either ground or the cutlets, it does great in my tummy! Weird! :blink:

Any carbs will go through you a lot quicker than the Protein will. Which is why you are supposed to limit the carbs

Thanks! It isn't a sprint it's a marathon and yes I do feel better and have made many positive changes but I know lurking inside is the old me and my real battle will be for life... Keeping it off and staying healthy, but I feel I have it in me and I have all the tools I need to do it!

You have to read the fine print also check out my intro to really understand. I came home in 2009 on a mission I lost the initial 200 lbs on my own with blood sweat tears and nutrition eating 5 small meals allowing myself one cheat meal a week whether it was chicken parm or $15 at taco bell.

I cut out beer and soda for the most part as I knew I was headed toward a lifetime without it and really stayed away from the sweets.

I ramped up my exercise when I was 575 lbs I couldn't hardly do 10 minutes on the treadmill at 2 mph and now today and yesterday I did over 3 miles on the elliptical in 30 minutes and did a full body workout upper one day/lower the next

It really is easy when you think about it but we are our own worst enemies 3 things will keep you on track 1) Eat Protein 2) Drink Water 3) Exercise... of course Vitamins, support groups, and doctor follow ups are extremely important as well but those first three things are what really gets the sleeve working for you.

I've lost 105 lbs in 7+ months post sleeve and after recommitting to working my sleeve this week I think i'm going to see another big drop on the scale tomorrow can't wait!!!

      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! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
