I may have a french fry or 3, but I'm 5-months out and don't like the heavy feeling on my tummy.

My dietician told me I could eat spicy foods as soon as I could tolerate it, I'm 6 weeks out and have been eating spicy for about 2 weeks now, with no problems. I have tried fried foods, but very limited, such as I had 2 chicken wings. I just make it a point not to have to much. I had that about the same time as spicy food. But I was also discharged on mushies, I did that for 2 weeks. After that I've been on soft foods. After next week I will be on no restriction diet.

Im 4 weeks out and I can do spicy without problems. Salsa keeps the meat moist. I haven't tried fried yet. Oh I did try 1 chicken wing. It didn't bother me at all. I myself am going to stay away from fried because that's what kind of landed me here in the 1st place. Oh yeah along with the cakes and ice creams. I won't be touching those either lol.

I agree with u I should stay a way from fried, but for me now it's more to discover what I can tolerate and what I can't :-)

fried adds extra fat & calories that are high in saturated fats (artery clogging) No bueno. If you are craving fried food. to to oven fry but even that I would only do on special occasions

Greasy fried in, makes for greasy out too (Ewwww) Besides, we had the sleeve to help us not to revert back to eating all the bad things.

I waited two weeks before eating spicy food. I didn't have any issues with spicy food at all. You may want to start out slowly until you can gauge how your sleeve tolerates the food.

I would stay away from fried foods as much as possible. This is the type of food that got us in trouble to begin with. I wouldn't say you could NEVER eat heavy fried foods, but eat them in very limited quantities. I'm 9 weeks out today and have eaten fried foods twice. Once was a fried chicken (leg and wing) and the other time was pork schnitzel. My sleeve didn't have any problems digesting this food, but it made me lethargic afterwards. If you intend to have a heavier type of meal, I would suggest your other meals be lighter in calories to balance out you daily caloric intake.

I had spicy food 7 days out. The dr cleared me for mushies then, and on the approved list was chili. My husband made some for supper that night, and it was fantastic. Other than not being able to eat much at all, I didn't run into any problems. In my pre surgery class the surgeon told us that there is no reason to shy away from spice or flavor.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      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! 😞
