Hi everyone!! This is my first post & I'm looking for October surgery buddies. I'm very excited about the surgery.

I know my plan doesn't allow corn kernels or popcorn for at least the first year.

We get to eat popcorn? I thought that was done forever.

We can eat popcorn again. I know a lady who had gastric bypass and she ate popcorn almost everyday at work.

My plan says no corn, popcorn, or seeds for 9 weeks until the sleeve fully heals.

You guys I've been craving pickles lately!!

Hey everyone I'm leaving for a cruse today so I'll be MIA I'll catch back up when I return. Have a great week!!

I will eat a pickle from time to time. The sliced kind but I don't eat the skin. I'm worried it may be too tough to digest. No problems with it so far.

Lovely. Have fun!

On my list, I meant

They're not on mine either lol. I cheated lol

For those are you who are not on FB... this is my post yesterday. PLEASE LISTEN TO ME !!!! You don't want to go through this !

two things happened today. Foamies ... and the horrible.. absolutely horrible dumping syndrome. Let me tell you folks... do not eat or drink anything new if you are not at home. Had to make an emergency stop at Whataburger and I spent at least 45 min cleaning up the walls, floors with a mop, and using lots and lots of their bleach. if it's TMI, GOOD... don't ever eat or drink anything that would cause this, it's horrible !!

Sorry to hear this @chellede. Thank you for the advice.

What did you eat to cause that?

A charleston chew hot cocoa. I have had a hot cocoa before, but never this kind.

I got the cocoa, then went and did a corn maze. When I got back my cocoa was cooled. I did drink it faster than normal, but within 5 minutes, I needed stop ! and there was no waiting !

Big lesson. Even if you had it before, if it's a different brand, do it at home ! I was never so embarrassed in my life !
