Well, it was one wing. I am assuming you chewed it really well. We are human. I just would not make a habit of that early on. I know you won't so just enjoy it and move on. :) Hope you don't get sick!

But I hear you about the 'devil'. I was dying for hot sauce at the begining. I think it was the first condiment I used once I was allowed chicken. Canned chicken and a drop of Red Hot.

I've has 1 chicken wing twice since surgery. I don't think it's that big of deal. Just think I used to be able to sit down and eat 10 at a time.

And Worm I want to eat hot sauce on everything. Anything I can put it on I've been doing it.

I dont know how you didnt it. I have been on liquids for 3 weeks and today was my first encounter with soft food. (15 day post op down 19.8 lbs) I have been craving a burger so I cooked a 4oz turkey burger with a little mustard and a little light cheese no bread of course. The first small bit was was wonderful so I ate another, but it was that final bit that killed me total of 1.5oz . OMG I thought I would die it was like I had swallowed a whole melon. I was saying GOD please let me throw up, but instead it just sat there for 4 miserable hours I learned a great lesson know when you are full. "trial and error".

I was on liquids and soft for like 4-5 wks post op. Please don't fall into bad eating habits so soon after surgery. Its one wing now and a few weeks it will be a few more wings, etc. etc..... you know where I'm heading. Please stick to low fat, healthy choices...you won't be sorry.

I 100% agree. I had eaten one when we were at a party. I won't bring stuff like that into my house. So I'm not worried.

If it settled then your good. At 6 weeks I ate a chicken wing in a Resturant and ran out instantly and threw up in the parking lot praying no one was looking and was horrified when I turned to an audience lol. I blame it on a number of things too soon, didn't chew enough, and ate to fast

Live and learn:)

I ate some chicken dip really soon after surgery and threw up so much I swore never again and I haven't. Sometimes I think its good thing so that when I see those off limit foods I associate them with that feeling. But we are fighting a mental battle as well as a physical one. Just be careful its not a slippery slope, today its a chicken wing, tomorrow its pizza, we all know how that story goes.

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

      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.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        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.
