Who eats McDonalds post op?

[char3672 292]

You will be able to eat that post op after you heal. You probably won't be able to eat a whole hamburger and fries for quite a while post op. I've had pizza more times than I'd like to admit. I've also eaten a few fries. My cravings for food didn't go away but my sleeve keeps me quite full. I personally didn't have surgery to be on a diet for the rest of my life. I will eat what my family eats for the most part but I will eat way less. I eat very healthily most of the time but not all day every day. I haven't been to McDonald's post op yet..... I could prob eat half a hamburger now. It just doesn't sound good though. They make a great southwest chicken salad with grilled chicken. I haven't tried those yet either because salads scare me a bit still! I'm just afraid I won't be able to chew it enough. Maybe I'll try a salad tomorrow! I'm six weeks out this week.

I'm 3 weeks out, and my dr said I can eat salad, but I'm too afraid still. How did you feel 3 weeks out? I'm nauseaus ALL the time. I hate the thought of eating or drinking. I am going on vacation in 2 weeks, and I will have to find things at a restaurant to eat. I haven't been out to eat yet. When did you feel "good"?

I ate half of a burger at almost 3 months post op and felt ok. Kinda full but ok. No space for fries or anything else just a few bites of the sandwich.

I loved McDonald's cheeseburger before surgery but now I can't eat it. The meat taste like gristly. Never notice it before

I hear you!!

I am less that two weeks post op and on liquids and my brain is going crazy! I hate drinking my food, always have. I was never one for milkshakes, yogurt, smoothies, Soup, etc. to this has really been a challenge.

I've gotten to the point that the idea of drinking another Protein supplement makes me feel sick. I've basically been drinking fairlife for my protein.

My goal isn't to say no to McD in the future. My goal is for it to be a "sometimes" thing cause I would prefer something that is natural and makes me feel good.

I have said No to McD's and the like for more than 5 years. I tried 1 fry in all that time and remembered why I never ate that garbage.

There was a running joke in my family because my dog would not eat McD's or any other fast food. He would sniff and walk away. Think about guys. :)

I love to read my old posts. i'm now well over 3 years post op. I had great success but have had some regain recently. i'm still a work in progress.
yes, I still occasionally have mcdonald's, and my meal is a cheeseburger and fry. now here's the real scoop- I rip about 75% of the bun away, leaving just enough thin material to hold it all together, and I can eat about 8 fries with it. that's it. sometimes, though, this really hits the spot!!!

I just have a plain hamburger and take the top bun off
