To much of what?? Volume? Fat? Calories? Carbs??

Just to much food to consume in general

Well there are so many ways you can slice it

(Pun intended :)) some will say why would you do "that it's not good for you!" And others will say "a whole slice? OMG how did you eat so much"

To that I will say its all relative really... I mean do you eat Protein first most times? If so then you are fine it wasn't to much..

And was this a treat? Special occasion? If so, no it's not to much as long as it doesn't open the door to binging.

And as far as the size of said pizza? As we all know there can be big slices or smaller slices.

And all of our stomachs are different sizes too!

So was it to much? Did it put you in pain? Overly full? If not then I'd say it wasn't to much.

At four months out I could eat a small slice of pizza too I'm sure :)

I eat pizza. I can eat one slice of a large 16-18" pie and maybe two of small 10-12" pie depending on if there is meat on it or not. I think I probably ate pizza at 4 or 5 months post-op.

You were sleeved a week before me. I had pizza for the first time a few weeks ago. It was the smallest meat eaters they had. I was able to eat the toppings off two slices and one of the crusts.

I got it out of my system and probably won't have pizza again for awhile to come. We're supposed to eat Protein first and I try to stick to that.

I made myself one using flat out light ( found by the tortillas) topped with some sauce parm onion turkey pepperoni and mozz. One made four servings for me and gave me my pizza fix

I've had it twice...but I plan for it and save my carbs and calories. It is by no means a free treat. I got meat and veggie, ate the toppings and half of the crust of one small piece.

Oh em gee! I am three and a half months out and I love(d) pizza. I took a bite of my daughter's crust last week (think the size of a computer key), chewed well and swallowed. Blurrrrp! Wouldn't go down and I couldn't eat anything else till the next day.

Yay!! Boooooo!! Yay!! Boo!! (That's how I feel about that!)

I'm a year out and I can't eat a slice of pizza. I can eat the toppings and maybe 2 bites of crust but that's all.

I can eat super thin crust pizza. Had some tonight since I already had 81 g of Protein today. I had a bite of regular pizza once and it bloated or something in my stomach, ugh. Must be super thin for me. It's not something I can do on any sort of regular basis because I can't get my protein in that way.

Saw a recipe for a mini pizza using a portabello mushroom as a substitute for the crust. Sounds yummy and I'm gonna try it.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!
