Sliders are foods that go right through the band and give no satiety signals. Like ice cream, chocolate, chips, casseroles, etc.

For me, a bag of cheese Puffs or Cheese Curls (whatever you call them, they practically melt on the tongue). Every now and then, I have a few.

Sliders are different to a lot of people. For instance sugar cereals for me are sliders but healthier ones like raisin bran and shredded wheat are not.

Even "sliders" fill me in lucky my band def has away if telling me umm sorry your done. Do I eat everything in moderation. Yes I have ice cream . chips do not like me don't know if it's the grease but it never ends well. I try and make good clean choices so when I do eat not so clean my body tells me and I am thankful I can't go back to my old ways .

Carbs in general are slider foods... I have learned how to eat around the band so with enough chewing anything can be a slider food... just not as much. Ugh! this makes the journey much harder than expected

Here's what doesn't give me a soft stop, so I guess these are my sliders:

salad

Soup

popcorn

chips

Pasta

Some breads

Here's what gets me stuck:

Pork chops

Here's what gives me a soft stop and satisfies me if I slow down and chew well:

cheese

Red meat like beef or hamburger

chicken

Chili

Some breads

eggs

Here's what satisfies me for hours but does not give me a soft stop:

Protein shakes

ice cream cannot be in my home for me. It calls to me at night It soothes me. So frozen yogurt occasionally. Regular Greek Yogurt.

Sigh. Can't have it. I know myself not to buy ice cream. Has any one else noticed you shop so much less?

Much less shopping. I bought Cookies for granddaughter yesterday and ate 4 of them, 220 calories each. Hubby and I have decided, no more cookies in the house.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
