Unfortunately for me, sliders happen on occasion. I have to really watch it.

Red vines (addictive)

Tortilla chips

This was my belief also. But I have started eating some old foods that are sliders and have gained about 5 lbs back. I recently lost my cat, he got out and 9 days later we found him dead under a shed and since then I am so off track with eating. :( sliders is what I crave and I will stop this. As of today.

My biggest slider is Cheetos. And then of course I am addicted to sugar so candy has no boundaries either. Oh and the QUEST bars are my crack. Can't seem to stop buying them. "Angry" at self!

I just don't allow myself to eat anything high cal or carbs, I think it's very important to keep yourself away from the bad food that could become your slider. My personal belief is I put my body threw major surgery and had a huge part removed, why do all that if I go back to my old ways. This is just how I believe. I understand not everyone thinks that way but it's working for me. Iv lost a total of 80 lbs 70 since sleeved oct 9 th, my way of thinking had paid off for me. So at 11 days post op plz don't be even wondering ab sliders bc it might be your down fall a few months out

I didn't ask about slider food because I want to know what "trick foods" are. I simply didn't know what the term "slider foods" were so I asked. Please don't assume or doubt my intentions.

What's a slider food?

Slider foods are high calorie high fat item which can still be eaten easily and in quantity after surgery. Some examples are as follows: ice cream, milkshakes, chips, candy bars, cookies, alcoholic drinks, fruit juices, etc. I hope that helps

I am 8 weeks out....I haven't found a slider food yet..and I REALLY hope I never do.

I have tried popcorn, chips and cake on my Bday..but they didn't go down easily. I haven't pushed the envelope any more than that.

Stupid question, but why are some of you even trying to find your slider food?

'Eaten easily and in quantity' does that mean you're able to eat a large amount or very little? This is my first time hearing/seeing anything about slider foods, just want to be clear on what it really means...

I can tell you its helping me! I've never heard of slider foods until this post and now I know what to avoid.

Large amounts with no worries

Here is the easiest way to explain sliders....If it is something that tastes good, ( or did) is processed, out of a bag, box or drive thru and you know it is bad for you- that is a slider. They go down easy, you can eat too much and they were never good for you to begin with. Everyone will eventually experiment with sliders. (or a large majority of folks) The key is to identify and try at all cost to avoid. Yes, it happens. Just don't allow to happen too often because it IS a slippery slope!

Mine is Girl Scout Cookies. Why in the world did I agree to be Cookie Mom this year?
