does anyone else have this trouble

I was sleeved on jan 11th this year, and my doc has set me free to a normal diet. has anyone else noticed that they cant eat anything with breading or has trouble eating bread products? I just get uncomfortable when i eat it. If i eat out, i get chk strips for the Protein, and i like chk anyway. but i find myself peeling the breading off cuz if i dont it makes finishing the meal impossible. is this a temporary thing or am i breading free forever? and the same with any kind of sandwich. still too early?

I think that does change over time, although a part of me wishes it wouldn't. It would help me stay away from bread/carbs. But early out, you don't have much room due to swelling. Also when bread gets to the tummy, the bread itself swells and can cause discomfort.

I'm now seven months out and still don't handle breaded things or even bread very well. I like knowing/thinking I can't eat it, so that way I stay away from it. Hehehe Good luck!

I was sleeved on 4-14-11 so am not having to deal with the yet. I get to start full liquids tomorrow!!! However, my daughter was sleeved on 7-1-10 and has lost 90 lbs to date. She is a carb watcher, so when she eats something like chicken nuggets or strips or anything breaded, she will take the breading off and eat maybe one small bite of breading to three bites of chicken. That way she is concentrating on her Protein intake but getting a little of the breading flavor along with the meat. You might give that a try. I look forward to the day

I was sleeved after you, on January 27th, I don't seem to have a problem with bread, sometimes it seems to fill me up quicker, but other times I feel I can eat more. Depends. I haven't tried anything breaded, like chicken or anything, just bread in general. So, this makes me wonder if this will always be the case for you since I am only a couple of weeks behind you. I guess it can be a good thing.

Hi I have not been sleeved yet, but my sister who had the gastric bypass 5 yrs ago, cannot eat bread at all, and a friend of mine (also bypass surgery), cannot have any breading, so I guess it is a common thing, but all depends on u. Hopefully it will get better. Good Luck to u. Keep up the good work
