Introducing new foods



Recommended Posts

I was needing to know when I can start eating salads again? And was wondering if anyone has a problem with popcorn? I was sleeved on January 31- so I'm still pretty new at adding new foods in.. Thanks

My doctor allowed salads at 4 months. It wasn't until 6 months that I really enjoyed them.

popcorn is something i would wait on. The hard bits can catch in the seam of your sleeve. 4 months....but beware, popcorn is a slider food. You can eat a lot of it and it's easy calories.

I didn't start eating salads until just recently (and only a bite or two). @ 9 mos out.

Oh I see how that would be a problem so I will stay away from the popcorn.. Now I have to find something in place of that for when I go to the movies.. And thanks for the advice on the salads too!! ????

Pickles at the movies! Either bring n your own or buy one at the snack bar if your theatre carries them.

yes, they do have a lot of sodium, but really, how many pickles can a sleever eat? Not that much....

Sounds like a joke...how many sleevers does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

Only one, but you have to wait 30 minutes before and after turns ...yuck yuck :P

i just went to the movies yesterday and I just took a Quest bar with me and enjoyed that. I do miss popcorn, but have not even attempted it. I am afraid at how easy it will be to eat a lot of it!!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      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! 😞
