When Did You Eat Pizza?



Recommended Posts

I have had pizza a few times. I am three months post-op. I think I had pizza for the first time maybe like 6 or 7 weeks post op. Luckily, my sleeve process was a breeze. I've never thrown up, it took me a couple days to recover, and I can eat anything I want.

I'm down 90 pounds in three months and I'm currently 254. I say eat what you want as long as you work it into your calorie budget and work out.

Lolly,

Girl! There are sharks on these boards and when they see you talking about pizza, doritos, etc.. they smell the blood in the Water and you are toast!! :) As for me, I had this surgery so I could live like a normal person, eating normal portions and end my dieting, food obsession nightmare. I am not living my life on Protein shakes. That said, I still have to have a Protein shake everyday to get all my Protein in because I am only 2 months out. I am a lucky one who has a sleeve of steel and have only barfed once and I think I ate too fast and didn't chew well enough. I tolerate everything. I ate a very small piece of thin crust delight pizza from papa murphys at about 6 weeks. I was full. It was great, I used to eat 4-5 pieces to feel full before.

OH THANK GOD!! I love hearing that someone else was able to eat a piece of pizza! I have been able to eat a slice BUT I log it, I am making myself accountable for everything I eat. I understand people saying it is not one of the best choices you can make for food but not everyone needs to be perfect everyday!

Do you mean to say you scrape off all the toppings and not eat any crust or you eat to the end of the flat part of a piece of pizza?

I had pizza at 12 weeks when i was allowed bread. My NUT sayds it is a great thing for us to eat, cuz we get Proteins, veggies and starches. Naturally, stick to one piece (not huge either), and don't eat the outer crust (You can eat the crust underneath, the flkat part)

I love hearing how satisfying only one piece is. I also got this surgery to end a my bad relationship wih food, but it is very important to me to be able to eat foods I love (and can tolerate) in moderation. It will be so nice to be ok wih just a single slice!!

I try to stay away from any bread or carbs like that. Protein is my friend too. If I make pizza, I make it on a Mission Carb balance tortilla.

There is a place here in Md called Gentlemen Jims and it has the best pizza I've ever tasted. I've been hooked since 1995. I think for my birthday in July I'm gonna get a small pizza from then. That should be plenty of time, 7 mos out. All this pizza talk is making me want one although Sleevie Wonder couldnt handle It lol

I eat the whole slice not scrapping the toppings off. Just throw the crust out. It's to filling. I don't have any toppings on the pizza.< /p>

I am 3 months out and I can eat a small amount of just about anything, except bread....... And pizza dough and flour tortillas are the worse. Funny thing is a week after surgery I started having a craving for pizza, and I still can't have any.

I am 3 weeks out from surgery and all I crave is pizza...

pizza isn't mentioned specifically on my post op diet (probably cause its not exactly a health food) but I was just curious if/when some of you had a slice?

I am a pizza Lover and I tried some raw pepperoni 3 weeks out and threw up too greasy and ate them 2 fast ugghh! Then I ate a half slice 2 months out and I was fine but a week later I started feeling nauseous so Im done with pizza! So I talked to my doc and he said it was prob the pepperoni so she said if I eat pizza make sure its vegetarian!

      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!!
