Are straws really supposed to be dangerous?

Lol I think it's an old wives tale about exploding stomachs... With that said, some doctors say they are ok. Some say no way, because of excess gas and there are one or two that think it will stretch you sleeve over time.

Oh and I? I don't use them... Well, just because I never used them anyway unless it was a soda bought at a fast food place

Yeah, now she just uses french fries to transport the chocolate shake to her mouth. No straw required.

I just had a coke with some poprocks and....just kidden lol!

I don't cheat often, but when I do, it usually involves a piece of yummy cake with lots of frosting or chips with guacamole :-D

I don't feel one bit guilty because 97% of the time, I'm a good girl.

I must confess... My husband made our toddler homemade pizza on pita bread (sauce and cheese). I don't have issues with anyone eating in front of me, but when I went to clear my sons plate, I put my tongue on a saucy cheesy part, I didn't lick, just placed my tongue on it for about 2 seconds. The cheese felt like plastic and the sauce felt metallic.

This was a day before I became a week post-op.

Okay..my confession for the week. I made my husband chicken bacon tortellini with a Tomato ricotta sauce topped with cheese and i took a few bites of it and chewed it up and spat it out..I wanted to taste it.. I love to cook but it sucks that i cant taste everything i cook anymore... I feel so guilty for wasting food by chewing and spitting..never again. At 1 week post op i started indulging in Sorbet. I would eat 1/2 cup a couple times a day because it seemed to hard to get anything else down.

You had me at bacon

Arrgh...sent from my Ayephone matey using magic. Sleeved 8/23/13

We can never' date=' for the rest of our lives use a straw? That's crazy and sad.[/quote']

Okay, sorry don't believe that crap. I've lost 103 pounds. 3 plus years out. Drink about 150 ozs or so a day and it's ALL THROUGH A STRAW! I have great restriction and no reflux!!!

[Georgia 2,908]

I once ate a whole bag of powdered donuts while reclining on the couch! That happened, um, several times to several bags of donuts. Clearly understand, donuts do NOT stick! You can keep sliding them right on Down!

I have had Velveeta Shells and cheese. Just about a cup and I was stuffed. Logged it on MFP and it wasn't nearly as "bad" as I thought. Even had Protein. I find that eating it and then logging it takes the "badness" factor out and I don't need to feel guilty. I'm in control, not the food.< /p>
