I can't do bread, Buns, tortilla shells, cake, muffins. I can sometimes do a piece of ww toast if it's really toasty and hard.

Wheat thins, rice cakes, soy crisps all go down well.

I am pretty lucky. I don't eat bread because their is no nutritional value, but I know if I chew something well enough, and take itty bitty bites, I can eat just about anything.

I seem to have a problem eating any kind of meat unless it has been boiled to shreds in a Soup. Sometimes eggs cooked any style, bread, any type of cake and rice.And last but not least anything fried or breaded. Actually my band is so fickle she changes weekly sometimes daily in what she will allow me to eat.(I named my band Ofc. Bandy as in food police officer)LOL!!!

I have to say I have no problem eating anything really, but I have not even tried rice! and I have no fill(doc said i didn't need it) so that may be a ood reason plus i chew it to DEATH.

I got stuck on cooked broccoli tonight. I didn't chew it well enough and I didn't wait long enough in between bites. It's definitely a new way to eat, once you have the band!

I'm VERRRRY tight right now, but here's mine:

ANYTHING before noon.

Any meat unless it's in a Soup.< /p>

Pretty much any big carbs- bread, potato, rice, chips, etc.

It works out great for me because those carbs were what put the most weight on me in the first place!

Deli ham, turkey from a roasted breast, but I can eat sliced deli turkey (go figure!), brownies, cake, sometimes crackers.

Rice ( I run from this like a tsunami )

bread like loaf bread in the store.

spaghetti

Tomato sauce like marinara messes my stomach up so I stay away from it.

Hi There,

I will be banded August 20th and I know I will start with the Clear liquids. How do you handle the fact that you cannot enjoy food they way you used to? Also, do people use toddlers sippy cup to drink from? And, can people tolerate some coffee in the morning? Thanks for answering my questions.

Hi there. I'm going to speak for just me but honestly, my taste buds changed. Yup. After the surgery it was like I could care less if I saw anything sugary ever again. Weird. So having some restriction ( think Thanksgiving FULL before you overstuff ) puts a cap on wanting to eat like you use to.

If you want a sippy cup, go for it. I drink my liquids from a bottle, room temp (because cold makes the stomach constrict) and I drink my liquids anytime but with food. I stop drinking 30 minutes before I eat dinner and don't drink until 30 minutes after. The idea is to fill your stomach pouch with only food instead of liquid and food. That's what I was told so that's what I do.

coffee. I drink coffee daily. I'm a coffee snob. Gevalia Kona. My drink of choice. Toast to you love. Best of luck. I'm so glad I had this done and only wish I had it sooner!

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
