  • I so wish you hadn't asked that question. But...time to come clean and take my medicine. Before my surgery, my wife and I and both of our sons often enjoyed eating at a Korean BBQ restaurant not far

  • I am seven months out, and there's NO way I'm eating any of that, Holiday or no holiday. Just saying.

Everything is moderation. I can't eat 2 giant plates like before or even half,but I can have 1/2 cup of something. I just stay away from fried food or have it occasionally but it makes me vomit if I eat it sometimes. Depends. Everyone should enjoy them self. Unfortunely this surgery turn my whole stomach into not liking certain food or smells.

Babygirl- How was the moscato? Did it give you any dumping effects? I am 4 months out and was able to handle the spare ribs but they were really tender! I cant drink soda yet but I sometime will sip a swallow of beer for the belch. Its amazing how we can all tolerate dofferent things! Enjoy!

This was kind of a mean remark... Ending that reply with "just saying" doesn't justify it's intent. We are all here to support one another... NOT attempt to give someone a guilt trip. Just saying.

You never even bothered to ask what the ingredients were before passing judgment. All of the actual meats are part of the diet. At least ask how it was prepared, low carb, low fat, low sugar sauces for example. People do that all the time. The drinks were diet... My doc said diet soda was fine just make it flat and not often. Why not ask all these things before jumping to conclusions. Let's just support one another. Cause we ALL have been through a lot...

Your right. I wish I can handle all that good stuff but I can't. Surgery affects everyone differently. Imagine can't eat chicken or pork. Oh boy but bring on the steak yummy!

Everything has gone well, thank God. It was only like 6oz and I drank it reeeeeaaaallly slow. The 2oz of soda....no problems either. I just needed to taste something besides Water and the stuff I normally drink. I'll be back on my routine tomorrow.

Not that I can remember. I like lipton's diet green tea. Also minute maid has several products that are 15cals/8oz serving. They are awesome. There is also a diet half lemonade/half green tea by arnold palmer that's good.

I hate the diet Lipton green tea.

I had the Arnold half/half don't like it.

Yet to try minute maid products.

If you don't dump or get sick from it, how do u stop yourself from falling back into the habit of wanting it all the time? Good point of making new healthy alternative - low sugar , less carbs etc!! I love this group. :).

Wow.. sorry if you misunderstood what i was trying to say...

Let me rephrase.. "I" would never dare to eat any of that. If your body can take it, great! Mines can't.

Just clarifying ;)

Weekend indulgent... It's so hot outside omg... We took our 2 year to a farm and enjoyed the day minus the sun burn!

After my hubby and daughter enjoyed their ice cream I went to a shaved ice place near home they blend natural fruit nothing extra (sugars) I had a kid size and got banana & strawberry.... Heaven! Haven't had one since before surgery. Ice & fruit! Went down cold and completely satisfying!

But next weekend its a better holiday for me! It's my birthday! No cake but Im planning on making myself that watermelon "cake" I've seen posted here :)

Surgery 7/25/12

That's a problem for me... I don't dump and have only thrown up from not chewing it enough. I have to follow the rules, I'm afraid!

I keep in my mind that I haven't dumped and don't want to. Lol. Plus my friends and family are very supportive. For example, my team at work usually has dinners on Fridays. They always make sure they have something I can eat. Some days are harder than others, but I keep my goal of no dumping in my mind.

I've never vomited. When I didn't chew a boiled egg one time, it wouldn't budge!!! I just had to wait for it to pass.
