i'm surprised you could eat the bread. i'm not allowed to have untoasted bread until 3 months out. i'm only 4 weeks.

I'm not going to fuss at either one of you. I've eaten a McD's cheeseburger (no bun) and, on a different day, a taco bell taco with the shell. Of the two, I prefer the taco. :) I drive a lot for my job and sometimes fast food seems like the only option. I've noticed that most fast food isn't appealing to me anymore. I literally find myself standing in front of the menu trying to figure out how to get a decent Protein out of one of their foods. I know grilled chicken and salads are lots of folks' go to, but some of those "grilled chicken" salads have as many calories as a big mac! I'm not willing to invest 800 calories to eat some chicken and bland lettuce.

Wendy's chili is usually my go to if I must do fast food. I prefer to keep a Protein Bar in my purse and have that if I'm out at mealtime than to eat at almost any other fast food place, though.

I like the refried Beans cup at Taco Bell. Think that would be good on mushies? I'll be starting those in a few days. Or maybe it's too high in fat?

The taco bell refried Beans are not high in calories - like 120 for a serving but it only has about 7 g of Protein. The bad thing is the sodium - 610 mg. but they definitely are good! There is 20 g of carbs as well.

I love the money I save. And I love going to t-bell for 1 single taco! And that's it! People I go with get 3-6 tacos or worse. Never going back :-)

You can remove a lot of the sodium by asking for no sauce on Taco Bell's refried Beans. Then ask for a packet of sauce and put your own on there if you like it. Those beans were my first mushy food! Yummmmmmmm

I was the same way. I ate really healthy all my life. No candy, chips, pizza or junk foods. I never ate more than my plate of food. Everytime I would go eat out I always had to bring food home. Before my surgery I was totally boggled as to why I couldnt lose weight and that had an emotional effect on me. But in return since I really didnt eat to harsh my stomach from point A "esphogas" to point B "large intestines" isnt really that long so since I got sleeved my new stomach isnt big at all. Since being sleeved I can see all to well as portion size was my problem. I didnt realize that one should only eat so very little.

Instead of plate they should only make saucers because ultimately thats what everyone should have as a plate 4-5 times a day.

Now heres my new problem. I goto lots of car shows since I have a show car. This past weekend I took home a 1st place trophy "yay" lol. Well at pretty much all of them they sell beer, hamburgers, hot dogs, nachos, hot links you know the typical fairground foods. I choose the hamburger but I get them to use double cheese and no sauces. I let the hamburger cool down and I pick the bread off and discard. You know how when cheese cools down it binds to a layer of bread so when I peel it off I have a tiny layer of bread. I eat a 1/4 at 11ish, a 1/4 at 2is and a little on the way home. I have never finished one yet. So hamburgers arent all that bad.

Now being at 13 weeks out I am scared to eat a Taco shell. I know that I can eat a taco salad shell because I tried that to see if the grease would irritate me but that shell is way softer than a corn shell of a taco.

Unsweet tea is my new favorite too. I drink about 2-3 20 oz containers ( or mediums) a day lol. It goes down so smooth. I wish Water went down like tea does for me.

Thanks Wendy's! 1 slice of cheese and 2 bites of baked sweet potato (hold the topping) makes for a nice lunch under $2. Pretty sweet, since most fast foods don't have much for us no-meat eaters :)

      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! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
