Does anyone eat pizza?

Pizza is my absolute drug and every time I see it I want it so bad. I am only 6 weeks out and it is impossible for me to eat. I wanted to ask you vets if you eat pizza and at what stage? I'm hoping at maybe 6 months I can try it. But I'm afraid to be in pain.

    I am 5 months out - I have had pizza, but never a whole slice. I can't tolerate that much. Here's what I do instead of doughy pizza from a pizza shop - I take a Carb Balance Tortilla shell, top wit

  • Exactly. I don't treat ANYTHING as a "cheat". It's why I had wls in the first place - so I'd never have to "cheat" on a "diet" ever again. I occasionally will eat 1/4 of a homemade Boboli crust pizz

    I'm going to go against the grain here and put a big huge question mark on the pizza. Yes, lots of folks find success with the "everything in moderation" approach, and if you're one of them, you have

I've had pizza three times now at 8 months most op. I can handle 1 slice minus the end crust. Can't fit in anymore. But it is nice every once in a while.

In as pinch, I'll eat pizza toppings. :-)

I rarely have pizza as its not my thing , but an occasional slice with THIN crust goes down just fine. There is a place near me ( Spiro's) that makes an amazing pizza with chicken , garlic, spinach and a cheesy white sauce, but what I love the most is their crust !!! I think it has cornmeal in it so its not thick and heavy like other crusts, and I have never gotten stuck eating this kind of crust. Try making your own !

OK, pizza porn.

We have a place near us that can make really unique pizzas like that. I think it's called Angelo's. I always like to try mine with artichoke hearts and goat cheese if I can.

I also, for the record, love Round Table's Chicken Garlic pizza (with white sauce), although I've only been able to find that chain of restaurants in California...

um, I think we might have been twins seperated at birth. :) Sounds like the perfect pizza to me, only thing missing is a bit of spinach.

We have Round Table in Oregon, too.

Pepperoni, mushroom, extra cheese,regular crust. Oh. My. God. That's crack to me. I'm only 1 month post op. It's the ONLY food I think I'd be tempted by. Way too scared to try it yet. I hope someday I can look at it and not feel passion. I do want to try the Greek version version. Yum.

Two Lakes Supper Club near Almond, WI makes the BEST shrimp pizza on a super thin crispy crust. Family owned and run since 1949. They close in the winter months and people put in their pizza orders by the dozens to stock in their freezers until they reopen in the spring. They also make a mean drunken chicken. Road trip anyone? http://www.hellotwolakes.com/history.html

Kindle, where are you from?? I'm in Beaver Dam WI and Almond is about 75 miles from me. I will definitely be making the trip for some shrimp pizza!!

Grew up in Plainfield, but live in Idaho now. I always make a Two Lakes stop when I'm home for a visit. If you click on the link in my post, you can check out their menu online...enjoy!

I did and EVERYTHING looks good. We will be making a visit there! Thanks!

I'm a sucker for a BBQ chicken and Bacon pizza.

I think I just had an orgasm.

I dream about this pizza. Pepperoni/mushroom. I also love the margarita pizza. I so wish I could have just one bite. I'm 7 weeks it would kill me. Like swallowing a rock. It would hurt all the way down for hours. I wouldn't be able to swallow my own saliva afterwards. Id probably end up throwing up or going to the ER for an endoscopy. Whew ok I don't want any pizza now. Hahaha

I am 9 weeks out and ate 1 slice of salad pizza. I ate the salad and then took small bites of crust. I only ate half of the crust. Some days though I feel like I cant eat anything. Every day is a surprise as to how much and what I will be able to get down. Today was a good day and for dinner I had 1 slice of london broil and some grilled veggies. Delicious! So happy! The days that I have trouble eating makes me very depressed!
