If you're gonna try it, THIN CRUST!!!

Normal crust is so hard on the stomach, or it is for me.

So this past weekend we had family over and we ordered pizza. We ordered thin crust veggie from papa johns and I ate one slice and was full. One slice does it for me and it went down much better than regular crust. So def give it a shot.

What about "thin crust?" does that go down easier for gastric patients ? Before my surgery that's what I liked vs the thick because it's crispy but was wondering if I'll ever be able to eat thin crust again???

I always eat thick crust. Only one piece, spread over a few hours. I can't do more. However, this past weekend I had thin crust for the first time since WLS (9 years ago). I was able to eat almost the entire piece and then a few hours later another.

I still prefer thick crust.

At at 21 months post vsg I had a kids gluten free pizza at my work the other day and it was great! I work in an all organic green and gluten free restaurant and decided on pizza. An hour later I checked my bs and it was at 82 after 3 small pieces. Being type one I was excited! It was yummy and thin crust with a crunch.

wow! where do you live that there is such a restaurant??? sounds awesome.

Since the surgery, I can't eat much pizza. I eat the toppings, any maybe a bit of the crust. It fills me up fast, and I am forced to eat very slowly and deliberately. It isn't a slider food, so I find I am satisfied with about 1/10th of what I could have eaten before surgery!!

Sadly I over ate pizza tonight :-( I had a whole piece of pizza and half of a bread stick from pizza hut, PLUS the toppings off of another piece of pizza. I was so uncomfortable for a few hours. It was the first time I really over ate. I ate too fast ;-( I hope I learned my lesson. I'm 7 weeks out Monday. Please don't chastise me. I know I did wrong and I am going to do my best NEVER to do it again.

No judging here. I KNOW HOW HARD THIS IS! I made homemade pizza on low carb flat out bread tonight. I really wanted Jets deep dish but oh well! We live and we learn. It's easy to go one bite too many, way too easy. But life is better with a tiny tummy. Im 10 weeks out and I'm still learning.

No chastising here! I had almost half a piece a couple days ago and I'm only 3.5 weeks out. I took the meat off because it was a bit too tough to eat. It's prob a big no no but I'm on soft foods.....pizza is soft right? Lol. I stopped before I hurt myself but it would have been very easy to keep on eating then feel awful or throw it up. I can't believe how easy it is to overeat!

I know! My doctor is always reminding me the the sleeve is only a tool and I still have to control my diet and exercise. I have fallen but I will get back up. Good luck to you :-)

My sister got a stuffed crust from pizza Hut, I didn't eat the pizza part just the crust. I could almost finish the crust and I was way too full. Before I could have easily had 3 pieces. Now with the sleeve it's an amazing difference when I see how much I eat now and how much I used to pile in my stomach. So grateful for this tool, now I just need to focus on staying away from the carbs and exercising. I'm still struggling drinking enough and get dehydrated way too much.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
