Is it me? Because its been to long since I've had a "real" cookie, or are they really good?

You might get more replies in the PRE-Operation Gastric Sleeve Surgery (VSG) Questions & Answers or food & Nutrition forums. Your question was posted in Gastric Sleeve Surgery (VSG) Success Stories.

At four weeks, the surgery is still healing. Eating foods or quantities not on your program increases the risk of surgical failure, such as a leak. Each Dr. sets a program based on their experience, how they cut the sleeve, the aftercare program they are using (which, in my opinion, is why many Dr.s in Mexico have a more stringent plan following surgery - you probably aren't going back for after care).

In addition, most people can't eat much in the first months post-op. Choosing nutritionally void foods doesn't leave room for the important nutrients provided by food on the post-op plan.

I would consider counseling to help learn to deal with cravings. At some point, the sleeve can only take us so far.

Best wishes on your journey,

Well Lynda she did successfully eat a 1/2 a package of ramen....

That must count for something

Sorry couldn't help it

I tell you fiddle, my husband just came home from work and ate one for the first time and said "awesome snack for mountain biking!"

I guess he's tired of stealing my premier shakes for riding!! 0_o

A note to the OP on Ramen - watch out for the high fat and sodium in those. They are somewhat good for tight budgets if you cannot afford anything else, but if you can, there are much better nutritional choices from low carb protein bars to small amounts cheese to apples with nut butter to Ostrim sticks to beef jerky to...
