I keep seeing this pop up in the threads. What are slider foods?

Slider foods, to weight loss surgery patients, are soft simple processed carbohydrates of little or no nutritional value that slide right through the stomach without providing nutrition or satiation. Crackers, chips, pretzels, Cookies, cakes, candy, etc

That's true for the most part but my biggest slider food is a mixed green salad.

Why is a salad called a slider food?

Me too! I'm amazed at how much salad I can eat. It's better if I add chicken then I get "full" but if its just salad it slides right thru.

Weird cause a green salad fills me up like I just ate the whole Thanksgiving turkey. We are all different I guess.

I think that's a good slider like yogurts.

I can eat upwards of ten loose cups of salad... about 100g worth. chicken it the food that fills me up quickly. Its odd that I can eat about 4-5oz of sirloin but only a few bites of chicken.< /p>

Most Proteins I can eat 3 oz or so. Beans are the odd thing for me. 2 tablespoons and my stomach feels like it us going to burst.

Yeah, mike : you are amazing with salad. I am impressed. My slider food is popcorn so I stay away or only eat on occasion like once a month. Chicken is between 3-5 oz for me.

      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! 😞
