Ok DISCLAIMER!!! ( please read first) This post will consist of peoples Favorite foods That they have gave up or CANT WAIT to have in the future.. IF you can not emotionally handle looking out YUMMY food right now in your recovery please refrain from going any further in this thread.

I myself Love to look at YUMMY food and find myself Watching all the food shows now.. and LOVE IT even if I cant have it YET or will ever go back to it if it is really bad for me....

SO dont say I didnt WARN YOU FIRST!!!!!!!!!!!

QUESTION- WHAT IS YOUR FAV food that you cant wait to try again and also for those that are in maintenince stage... CAN we ever eat these again of course in moderation?

See next post for mine!

Here is one of mine...

Can i ever eat a good hot wing? I LOVE HOT WINGS!!!!!!

2- street tacos with Jalapenos and sour cream

lastly- BBQ ribs..... ooo how I miss you!!

ok one more.. Im craving EGG salad Sandwich right now

Is even whole wheat bread ever ok with our sleeve or is it too much?....

Ugh. This is mine. I don't know how I am going to be able to go to a movie and handle not being able to have popcorn.

Food porn got me through the first 2 weeks of recovery after surgery. It was weird I looked in every magazine for recipes and watching the cooking channels. Crazy! Tho weirdly I was happy to just look.

OO MY , yes theater popcorn is HIGH on my list of missed food.

Im the same way.. I watched MAN VS FOOD all the time and the BEST FOOD... I also watch all the food documentaries to help level me too..lol

I love looking at food it helps me too

Omg!!! I thought it was just me, lol!!! And I can't wait to have all of the above too!! Im just now cooking, but still in mushie/soft foods. A girl can dream though! Lol

I'll tell you this- if my sleeve can handle it I will 100% have movie popcorn again in my life! All things in moderation and I will certainly not be eating the entire bucket myself... But I will enjoy it. I chose sleeve so that I could have all things in moderation!

I have had buffalo wings, they are one of my favorites too. They are a bit of a splurge - even though they are high in Protein, they are also high in fat so I try to avoid them in general. They also make me want to drink beer.

I am 4 1/2 months out and have had some popcorn, it's not a trigger food for me so when I get it for my daughter at the movies I'm content having a few bites.

I'm not doing super low-carb so I have had some breads, I find that regular bread fills me up too much but I sometimes will have a slice of toast with my egg for Breakfast - I think the bread being toasted helps it not be too "filling" if that makes sense.

I really don't feel like I'm limited at all with my food options, as long as I get my protein in first and don't exceed my calorie targets for the day nothing is necessarily off-limits in moderation. I think people just need to know their trigger foods and avoid the slider carbs that can get them off-track (such as the tortilla chips and salsa I ate at dinner tonight with my family - those are a bad slider for me so I really, really try to avoid them).

Love this!!! I miss eating chips and salsa/ green sauce. The fried chips make me feel sick still at a year out. I used to be able to eat an entire basket by myself.

Thank you SO much for the food porn. My family thinks I am torturing myself by watching the Cooking channel and Food Network but I love food. I just can't eat the way I used and I'm definitely ok with that. I'm one month out and know that my sleeve is still sensitive so I will take it easy before tasting my favorite food again. Happy eating with your sleeves!

I LOVE hot wings and anything spicy. I am really hoping that my sleeve will tolerate spicy again. These days I am craving the weirdest thing: Dill pickles, the crunchy Claussen dill pickles. Someday.....

I'm going to miss Krispy Kreem donuts with goop in the middle. :'( Donuts are my favorite food group.

(Then I'll go try on some small clothes and feel better

My favorite Mexican restaurant in town had the BEST chicken nachos. I can't wait to have some again, in several months time, of course. That and Papa John's pizza. Mmmm.

This is such a relief! I'm not alone!! I was feeling like a food "creeper" and honestly felt I was not normal!! 10 days out from surgery now & I have been watching food porn just about everyday!! I have been craving DILL PICKLES of all things! But other than that.... all is good! Thank you for the food-porn still pics!! Love it!

Quoting meg ryan... YES< YES< YES

Yes, you will be able to eat this food again, just not in large quantities. I have had wings, street tacos, Indian food, jalenpenos (although not as many whole as before), BBQ, popcorn with butter, all of it.

Nothing is forbidden any more. Because of this beautiful sleeve I can easily control quantities.

Love this sleeve and being at goal. Patience to those of you in the process. Your time will come, sooner than you ever dreamed! Promise.
