Holiday Foods

I am being banded August 07, 2006. I was wondering if I will be able to eat cornbread dressing during the holidays. It made out of a bread product :D

Anything heavy, sticky, or gooey can get stuck and cause a PB. I think if you try it, you should take very small bites and eat other food between bites so there's less of a chance it will reform into a dough-ball in your stomach.

You can try it and see, or you can realize that cornbread stuffing isn't the be-all end-all of holidays!

Happy Thanksgiving!

By the holidays, it might not even appeal to you any more. Or you might try eating small bites with lots of gravy.

Its very strange but looking back, I was worried about holiday eating also. Actually, probably about eating in general. I didn't want to miss my favorite foods. But I don't. I just eat alot less of them and use some common sense.

You will find your food niche as time progresses. Good luck. Celeste

Thanks DonnaB and Road Queen...... I just worried I won't be able to eat anything around that time. I guess I will just have to test it and see.

You will be amazed by all the things you will be able to at least nibble at during the holidays. And the full flavor of a food is used up in the first few bites anyway so I think we will all be satisfied and proud of ourselves at how much control we have over food instead of the other way around.

You have obviously never tried mine! HAHAHAHA

I worry about this too. My family expects my cornbread and sausage gravy. And my mother in law makes THE BEST sweet rolls ever!! Thanksgiving and christmas are going to be a trial. We will see if I can handle just one or two bites of everything.

I just want to be able to eat some traditional holiday food. My Mom cook so much food you have to decide what you are gonna it today and what you will have the next day.

Oh no :omg::omg: Cornbread stuffing, I hadn't even thought about that. I love cornbread stuffing and can't imagine thanksgiving and christmas dinner without it. Oh, please let me be able to eat it!

thinking back and drooling, I ate pretty much everything but really drowned the turkey and stuffing with gravy. oh, this thread has to end. I did see pork chops in the store yesterday and celery - maybe I will make pork chops with stuffing and gravy on Friday night. mmm.

oh, I can taste cranberrry relish right now...okay, I'm going to try and drink my morning Protein shake...maybe I will throw some cranberries in it. lol
