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 actually take turkey pepperoni and put 17 slices on a paper towel and put them in the microwave for 1 minute. They taste like chips! Love them!!

These are a great proetin snack! I drizzle a little shredded cheese over mine for some spunk! LOL!

I saw this the other day...http://m.allrecipes.com/recipe/55498/personal-portobello-pizza

It looks delicious! I suppose you need to like mushrooms though

Why would a person even need to have the need to have pizza after only a couple of months out we waited so long to even have the procedure done to take a chance on all that nasty grease

I agree! If you want the pizza taste, make some won ton pizza cups from emilybites.com with some pizza sauce, turkey pepperoni, mushrooms or ground meat, and shredded mozzarella and that will satisfy your craving. Carbs are not your friend at this point. I am 18 months out and never counted calories but I certainly have always counted my carbs.

Hah! I promise I'm sticking to Protein shakes' date=' yogurt and Soups. Not planning on eating pizza anytime soon. I was actually thinking about a nephew's birthday party next month. And no, I don't have a NUT. I went to Mexico for surgery and their post op diet isn't very clear. I get most of my info from this forum.

Very valid point and I probably would have been thinking the same. [/quote']

You don't have to answer to no one! But to answer your question, I'm about 10 weeks out and had homemade pizza last week. I used thin crust, Canadian bacon, sautéed spinach, peppers, garlic, onion, mozzarella, parmesan, & Romano cheese. I could only eat about 3/4 slice but it was delish! Since you're going to a party order a salad or veggie lover n pick on toppings.

Actually alot of people eat pizza with a fork and so can you and just eat the protein and stuff off the top if you want. Who cares what they think! You will be full in no time and no bad carbs.

I had pizza (CANADIAN BACON AND CHEESE) this weekend on vacation. I normally have wood fire type stuff (thin crust, hand made, high quality toppings) and while this was advertised as that it was actually kind of a thick crust. I enjoyed a small piece but didn't eat all of it. I have trouble with any food due to complications that left me with a smaller stomach than most, but still it was fine and I enjoyed it

I count all of my calories, log my food, and didn't have this surgery to not eat again. I don't eat a full pizza or a pizza and fries or anything else silly Moderation is the key. I'm six months out though....but at two months out I enjoyed the toppings of a wood fired pizza as well. If you are sufficiently out from surgery (allowed by your surgeon to have it) than enjoy a bit and see how it fits for your tummy.

BTW...one would NEVER experience problems from a food eaten a week earlier LOL That surgeon was surely pulling your leg hard!

Wait until you are tollerating solid foods across the board before you try something with that many different consistencies in one bite. People flip thier **** when they see pizza so be prepared for that though. Looks like you're already experiencing some of that though.

I'm 99lbs & workout almost everyday, at 5'2 I'm actually 10lbs under weight . Why would I want pizza? I watch my carbs too, but a slice of pizza isn't going to put the 102lbs that I took off. If I enjoy something I'll have it. It's not something I eat everyday. I log my food & exercise everyday in the lose it app. I'm in the gym almost everyday & work with a trainer. I don't eat junk food, Pasta, rice or red meat.

Doxie, I saw your post here and in the past and you were not even remotely on my mind when I made the "shark" comment. Sorry if it sounded like it was directed at you I should have phrased it nicer. You are always a great support to me and others- thank you! There are others who I feel like pounce on any post where they feel like people are "cheating" on their new sleeve diet and I am one who is never going to diet again but just eat a healthy balance so I get defensive of those who make us feel guilty for not following their plan.

I had my gastric sleeve done 3days ago and any advice would be great.

Wait until you are at least on solids (5-6 weeks). That being said, are you sure you want pizza? It is up to you, but there are better choices that will help you reach weight loss goals more quickly. And if you do eat pizza, eat the toppings only. The bread will only cause pain as it expands in your GI tract.

No.. I just downloaded the app and I really don't know how to work it I don't even know how to put my picture on here. I just jumped in a convo. I just want advice from people who have experience with the surgery.
