I am months post op and I want rice like no ones business. But is that a good idea? I havent been watching carbs at all I have been focussing on my Water and Protein. When did you guys start eating rice again or Pasta?

I am not a pasta person and I have no interested in bread only rice.

I would love you input and if you still don't eat it say so! I do not want to go down the rabbit hole.

I've had brown rice a few times and black rice once. I had brown rice maybe 6 mths post op and a few times since but never much more than 2 tbsps. Other than the glutenous white rice in sushi white rice never held much lure for me. I'm also vigilant enough about avoiding empty carbs that I have shied away from processed carbs like white rice.

My surgeon says no rice, pasta, bread, crackers for at least 6 months post op, as they form a gummy ball in your sleeve and he doesn't want to have to go in surgically and retrieve it.

I used to love rice. White rice, brown rice, black rice, Jasmine rice, you name it, I'd inhale it.

Rice makes me hurl now. I can eat a bite or three (small) but within 20 minutes it will come back up. It's almost as if it grows in my stomach and MUST.COME.BACK.NOW. And it does.

I don't even want rice any more. Pahsta (sic) does the same.

How long ago did you have the surgery lady?? It says you been a member since 2013 so I'm assuming 2 years and still can't stomach rice??

May 2013 was the date of my surgery. And nope, no rice.

I mostly stayed away from white carbs until I passed goal. I'm not a big rice or pasta eater so it was no big deal. But I do LOVE sushi and starting around 9-10 months out I have had it at least a couple times/month. Same goes with Thai food...it's really the only time I eat noodles.
