Well, when you get to solids you can try but I can't. I eat the toppings though sometimes :D but the crust is bad news, and I tried thin crust.

I can handle it fine, its VERY filling though, one piece is all I can manage. Which is pretty good when you're talking pizza.< /p>

I always get thin crust now. I like it loaded with cheese and sausage. I have not had any problem with it. Good luck to you.

I had a slice that had that crust that isn't much thicker than a big cracker, and I could eat a slice. However, no one else I know likes that kind of crust, and since I can only eat 1 piece... I don't have it.

No loss. You'll start not thinking about certain foods after a while, like Jack said.

Everyone varies when it comes to pizza..I was only able top eat thin toasty crust, if it was too doughy, no way. ..but I limited myself to pizza I focused on more healthier food choices since I had not much room for food I wanted it to be wise choices. Protein first is the bandster motto!

I can eat regular pizza just as long as I go slooooow. Before my last fill I could eat it w/no problem whatsoever...bagels too.

My family orders the cheese and pepperoni, regular crust. I eat the cheese but not the pepperoni cause it bothers me and a bite or two of the crust. Any more and I may get sick. So pizza is just a once and a while treat.

Make crustless pizza. It's yummy! I know I've posted the recipe so just try searching on my username and pizza, or something like that.

I used to love pizza but, since being banded, I don't crave it and would rather "use" those calories eating something healthier and more satisfying.

Yes, I often make it on pita breads, I hate thick crusts on pizza anyway. And if you make it yourself its lots healthier. Although I love a good woodfired gourmet pizza, I loathe that pizza hut crap.

Mr Yo:biggrin1:

I am 10 days post-op and I am craving fish and chips I started on liquidised foods they tend to fill you more. I found bake Beans and scramble egg well mushied up helps with some cravings make sure its mosied though. My worse desire is chocolate buttons believe it or not women thing I think. ?? :eek:

I lost about 7 lb since my surgery.:clap2: its quite exciting some of my trousers and tops are too small don't know if you have experienced that yet but the buzz helps the cravings. Good walk helps too it tends to take your mind off food.< /span>

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
