Ugh autocorrect messed everything up! I meant to say that all I had was the cheeses and sauce on top. And I don't eat the bread.< /p>

Since surgery I've had pizza twice. And both times I ended up throwing up n feeling sick. And all I are was the cheese n sauce on the too. I don't date to eat bread.

I did just that same thing tonight. I could stand it no longer and after running all day with nothing but Water in my system, i came home and made one for the kids. I asked the BF for one small piece of pizza, I ate slow and chewed until I could isolate the taste of the friken flour in the dough! It went down nice, and for a split second I thought I was home free. Fat chance!! I was praying to the tidy bowl god for about ten mins. I'm no longer craving pizza! I'm two weeks out now, and trying to figure out how to get along with my pouch. It's not going as smooth as I'd hoped :'( I'm always hungry and when I eat certain things, I get this awful ache in my pouch that feels like a cross between hunger pangs and nausea. I'm really trying to work this out, but it just makes me understand how much my life did and still does revolve around food. Please somebody tell me this being hungry all the time goes away at some point??

Yes I did about a month out.... Worst idea ever!!! I started sweating so bad my shirt was soaked in 5 minutes' date=' I felt light headed like I was gonna pass out, I couldn't breathe and my blood pressure dropped really low an hour after I had it happen we took my blood pressure and it was 87/58 so there's no telling how low it actually was when all that happened to me! We almost had to call the ambulance!

I will NEVER EVER do that again!!

I think we all go thru a faze similar to yours. I started off strong, not craving at all but as soon as I hit a plateau I felt a bit discouraged and the head hunger cravings began. Fortunately the being sick after eating something I craved so badly kinda helped because it was a lesson learned! Now I'm 12 Weeks out and I'm still learning what I can and cannot tolerate. Still absolutely no meats, not even lunch meat. But just yesterday I had some soft lean beef Jerky. Boy, did I savor all two pieces! Lol

Mamiof3Kids,

It was right after! I must have taken about two or three bites, and I thought I was ok. Then I sat down and started feeling nauseous. And it was all bad from there. Lol

Tough love ...close the thread If you don't want to read it.

Two weeks out and you are trying to eat pizza? And people are trying to drink sodas and have junk food?

NEVER NEVER NEVER miss a meal time. You went all day with just Water ? Really? If your day is that busy prep ahead and bring some Protein powder with you so you can have some nourishment..

This surgery is not a forever fix. You have anywhere from 8 months to about a year referred to as the honeymoon phase when weight loss is pretty easy. After that it is all on you to keep it going and to be a long term success.

If you do not take this time to LEARN how to eat healthy and STAY AWAY from the things that got you to the point of surgery in the first place you will continue to have struggles with dumping and returning weight.

      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.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      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!!
