What Foods Do You Miss?

carmillejoanita · January 13, 2007

Everyone, I haven't had surgery yet Iam still thinking about it. Just wondering what foods do you miss? Thats really the only thing (besides the insurance) holding me back. Why am I having these ups and downs? The only thing that keeps my sprit up is my husband and yall's before and after pictures. Speaking of pictures, I want to see more new ones. Thanks! ~Carmille

Hey Carmille,

I really don't miss many foods. What I really miss is being able to chug ice cold Water. I think that was the toughest thing for me.

As far as you thinking about your surgery, I can tell you with all honesty that it was the best decision I have ever made in my life. I've been losing weight and I'm actually exercising and enjoying for the first time.

Good luck with whatever decision you choose............~~Jimboss~~

I miss white bread, and carbonated beverages but thats about it. Everything else is ok. But I used to love sandwiches on fresh white bread.

And Dr Pepper...I miss dr pepper.

Well, when I run accross one I can't eat, I will let you know...

So far - I can still eat anything I have tried.

Now, it was a little painful when I took that sip of Champagne on New Year's Eve... I really don't recommend carbonation - but I don't really miss soda all that much. I just drink iced tea.

Hugs!

I'm the same as Missy. bread and carbonation. Small price for good health. I've had small amounts of all goodies. I do have a sweet tooth.

I eat sf pudding and hot chocolate on a regular basis. I love the banana cream and white chocolate sf pudding mixes. They satisfy me. LIke Jack said my tastes have changed .The first couple of months was hard. Now at almost 6 months food is just not interesting to me now. Living life has grabbed me now.

Honestly - nothing. food is no longer the enemy or scary to me so there's nothing I dont eat. I'm also lucky that I dont ahve any trouble with any food in particular. Everything in moderation has worked well for me.

Thanks for the rapid response guys!!!! Thats why I love this site so much! I think I would proberly miss white bread and soda too. I heard you could shake up all the fiz out of the soda and still drink it, is that true? Will you never ever be able to eat bread again? How about red meats? Do you feel full all of the time? Just trying to get an idea. Thanks ~Carmille

I can honestly say that I miss eating a nice big Subway sandwich. I was able to eat only 1 before my last fill. It was the best sandwich I have ever eaten!
