Soda! Haven't touched it since surgery nor do I want to. Diluted lemonade & apple juice seems to do the trick for me.

Everything. Taco Bell was my go to binge food before, and now it makes me throw up within 5-10 minutes of having a few bites.

Ice cream, subway, whiskey.

Can't you have subway?

Thought I'd miss milk. I used to drink it with every meal, with snacks (and there were a lot of snacks, usually cookies or cake that needed milk ), and I would drink it just because. I'll never forget the horror of the day the dietitian told me that would have to change, lol. I thought I would really, really miss that, but I don't. Not at all.

Not a footlong with chips...my staple meal.

Did you develop lactose intolerance? I drink milk almost everyday.

Diet coke! :-) Caffeine

I did almost cry when I saw someone drinking a diet Mountain Dew. I wanted that one BADLY!

_{Surprisingly, I don't miss anything at 4.5 months out. I expected to miss going out regularly and all of the Italian food I was consuming in mass quantities, but I don't. I hope this lasts ...}

I don't miss soda. I don't miss bread (shocker). I do miss alcohol (surprisingly) - just having social drinks with friends. I was a Margarita, 7n7, Jack n Coke kind of girl. I was out with friends last night to see Wicked. First time "out" since surgery. Everyone was drinking. I ordered a glass of red wine (which tasted good) but only had half a glass. I really wanted more, just couldn't do it. I don't really miss sugar. I miss being able to eat something in addition to protein. I'm usually too full to eat the veggies. But not complaining about any of it! Down almost 50 and feel too good to focus on the "can'ts" (although sometimes they sneak up on you)!

I am surprised that I don't miss diet coke. I sometimes miss pasta and bread, but not like I thought I would.

No, I can still tolerate it (and everything else) just fine. I just don't drink it because of the calories. The dietitian told me at one of my pre-op appointments that "we don't drink milk" and I guess I believed her, lol.

Huh... What does your nut say about eggs then? A cup of skim milk has 90 calories and 8g protein, not to mention all the vitamin D, A and calcium. One egg has 75 calories and 6g protein....right in the same ballpark as milk.

I miss it all...food in general. I get hungry for something specific, and really want it, but if I give in and start to get what I wanted, suddenly I don't want it anymore. Its frustrating. For example, I really want a tomato sandwich, but if I get up to go make one, suddenly, I don't crave it anymore. Same thing with any foods, especially when I watch food commercials.

Right now I'm getting a bit depressed because I don't have food to turn to, and I'm not sure what else to do. I have so many leftovers in my fridge right now that it is scarey. I'll probably wind up throwing all of them out. I made some saute'd mushrooms, ate a bite, and there they sit in the fridge. I can tolerate most any kind of food, just don't want them.

I guess I miss eating a whole meal like I used to eat.

Actually skim milk has 11-12 carbs. An egg doesn't. Most nuts have patients on carb restricted diets. I am not to do milk but can do eggs.

Eggs are fine. I think her idea is that milk would not keep you full as long. The question was what don't you miss - so for me, it's milk. I could have it, but I don't. It's a habit I changed.

You're right,the carb argument makes more sense than the calorie part.
