My enemy food.



Recommended Posts

Ive tried to eat pork 3 times and cant do it. All three times it was different cuts, prepared differently and it makes me sick. What foods are hating you? Anyone?

How far out are you? From about 6 weeks to 8 or 9 weeks I didn't do well with crisp tender or raw cruciferous veggies like broccoli or cauliflower, but now at almost 6 months out I do fine with them. I would take a break from any foods you can't tolerate for a couple of weeks and then try again (at home of course and a small amount that is chewed very well).

7 weeks today. I have tried only small amounts of pork, but I think its just too heavy still. I havent attempted steak or roast beef. Back to the old drawing board.

Yes. Pork is also hard for me. I would try again in a couple of weeks. I do fine with lean beef.

I am almost 10 months out and still can not eat pork or beef....It makes me feel sick and sometimes I have thrown it up.....

I mostly eat chicken...brown meat and fish....so much fish I think I might be growing gills...lol

Love the fish...light and not heavy on my stomach....

I can also eat a very small portion of lamb....I watch that too because it turns on me so fast!

I can no longer eat salmon! Weird, right??? Other fish is just fine but the taste of salmon has become so strong it makes me ill to eat. The same with turkey!! Depends on how it is cooked. I can do *some* pork. Nothing breaded at all. I try to stick with mainly chicken and fish since those are the two that go down the easiest. The lighter the better! I am 7 months out from surgery.

Very strange, but I can't tolerate any kind of lunch meat. I can eat pork, beef,chicken, fried, breaded, really anything I want except the lunch meats. I have no clue why this is.

Beef got me forever. Ground, steaks, thinly sliced lunchmeat - any variety, I just couldn't do it.

Iceberg lettuce is still my enemy. Something about it causes me problems if I have more than one or two bites.

Same goes for flour tortillas. I hate them. They gum up and get stuck and I'm left with a plate full of food because I only managed two bites.

I also avoid rice for the most part because it does the same thing.

2 months out and haven't had an issue with anything except apple. I had salad ( with apple) earlier this week and felt dreadful. Tonight I ate less than 1/4 of one as a snack and feel icky again. Guess they'll have to go on hold for a few weeks. :(

I'm almost 3 months out. I get super sick on cashews. bread, which I've only tried once or twice, makes me feel stuffed in a bad way with only a bite or 2. I haven't even bothered with rice or Pasta. Only wish I had the sane problem with crackers. Those go down fine and they were one of my trigger foods before surgery. No crackers in my house!

      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.

      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!!
