    So if your NUT said no rice; you are eating rice. At this point I guess you will decide what you want to do. Are you looking for validation here to say it is okay to eat rice? I think you should list

Depends on what your surgeon advised. Some have patients eating regular food 2 weeks out, others make you wait 4-6 weeks.

Done Did It!

Like I just got gone eaten now I'm good for the whole day I might get a ice pop later on my food Portions are really small.. I still work out everyday And Im still losing the weight I'm 28 pounds down !!

Rice Beans & chicken

Beans and chicken are fine. Just take it easy. I'm not allowed rice for 9 months. You should prob just be sticking to 90-95% Protein at this stage

So I have been eating regular food just Small portion Am I going down the wrong path...

I think you should listen to the professionals, of which we are not.

Good Luck

i "think" Amazon meant to nicely say you should listen to what your NUT says, then you won't have any reason to question if you are going on the right path - but its always nice to receive a good luck encouragement, so i'm glad you received that :)

its true none of are professionals, we're just normal, wonderful sleevers like you :)

we give support and advice ,general conversation and good info too, and importantly we are here to support all - especially you Newbies - come on, come on - you know who you are!!!! :)

when there is something more medical/technical involved, we suggest you see your doc/or NUT :)

talk to your NUT about more suggestions to eat - at the beginning, and later too, it can be hard to get a good variety of food in

but, i know you can conquer all- you ARE on that right path - no wrong turns allowed :lol:

watch those road signs :lol: :lol:

eating small portions, exercising, losing 27 lbs Kudos!!!

talking to your NUT is always a good idea for info/reinforcement

good luck :)

IMO, yes, you are headed down the wrong path. Remember the first few months are when you have the most rapid weight loss.

I personally am 8months out & I still do not eat rice, bread, Pasta, potato, or fried foods. White carbs like these are immediatly turned into sugar, not to mention they trigger cravings for more of the like.

Yea I going to chill out with the rice ...

The way I see it you are. I was told no regular foods until week 9. You should be on soft foods at this time and consuming all your proteins. Don't want to fall back into those same old eating habits.
