How long has it been since you've been sleeved EarthyGoalie? I love 40 cal natures own bread and would love a bologna sandwich. Maybe one day??

I'm 5 months out. I've been eating a little of the 40 cal bread since I've been 3 months out.

I am Orthodox and for Holy Communion we are served fresh bread made with yeast as the body and wine as the blood of Christ. I don't normally eat bread but I felt like communion bread would be okay and I was right. I've not had any problem with it. I don't eat sandwiches and I don't have any kind of bread with my meals so I don't think I'll hurt myself by having one piece of communion bread each Sunday. I can eat most anything now but its still in such small amounts so I stick with Protein and a veggie.

I'm 8 weeks and just this week I had one slice of whole wheat with PB2 for Breakfast. Couldn't finish it.

I was an avid breadaholic before my surgery. Recently I tried a slice of buttered toast, and to my dismay, I loved it, and it didn't bother me in the least. I was soooo hoping I'd be one of those people who would decide they didn't like bread afterwards. I'm going to have to consciously avoid breads because I don't think my sleeve will do it for me.

I can eat toast fine, so good with a pan fried get on top for breakfast! I even have eaten a few bites of a McDonalds fish sandwich so delicious. I figure if I can only get 3 bites in surely it cannot hurt me:-) lol most days I stick to Greek yogurt, cottage cheese and fruit cup, salad w/ meats.... chicken makes me gag now!!! Why I do not know! Steak is delicious! I love egg drop soup... My go to food! I cannot tolerate any thing that ha been fried...yeah! Good luck and play it by ear!

I am five months out and have had only a few bites of bread. It is way to filling for me. I love bread but I know it is a slippery slope for me so I avoid it.

I'm 15 months out and still can't eat bread. I have lunch on toasted sandwich thins but can't eat real bread without it filling me for hours. Potatoes, rice, and Pasta are all eaten in limited quantities for the same reason. I think everyone is different, but for me, bread is a thing of the past.

As per religious observance, I bake and eat Challah every Friday and Saturday for HaMotzi. Between a pinch of Challah and about 3oz of Grape juice, I'm stuffed to the gills. I've had great luck with thin pieces of Rye for when I need a deli fix.

How soon after your procedure did you have challah? Thanks!

I eat half a whole wheat English muffin or 1 slice of bread. If its a roll, I pull out all the fluffy inside. Same with a bagel, I pull out all the insides and eat just half. Everything in moderation.

No, I can too. I don't usually eat them, but tonight I had a PB&J. Half at 5pm and half at 9pm. I don't eat rice or Pasta though, just not interested. I think that tonight I wanted the sandwich because all I've eaten today was Protein, except for a slice of Tomato.< /p>

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
