I'm craving some corn beef turnip and cabbage!

I don't know if you were just recently sleeved, but if so, you can eat foods again like those (in moderation) in only a few short weeks.

For me, personally, I would only dream about a boiled dinner if I was having it with Halle berry. :)

I had a bad day with cauliflower early on, so I waited until about six months before I tried cabbage. There was no problem, and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

I had bypass and made boiled dinner at about 4 months and beyond. Love it, especially the cabbage and carrots.

Oh wow that's good to know I'm only a month out but boiled dinner was my last meal before surgery lol!! Not joking either I love to fry it the next day on the stove with some butter.. Glad to know I can eat it woohoo.

Sarah....just because some posters can eat certain foods, doesn't mean you will tolerate those same foods. Please make sure this early in the process, to check with your surgeon and nutritionist before trying any of the foods you want to eat.

Thanks for the advice go walking. I understand that and normally I just like to see what others can tolerate but in this post I was stating I was craving something and dreaming of food just wondering if I was the only to be dreaming of certain foods as well.

Cooked cabbage is one of my favorite foods since surgery....I like to fry the leftovers in butter....no corn beef though, don't eat meat since surgery.

But then, I'm a lap bander...things are different for me.

Oh well...that's different. LOL. I can tell you that my experience has been that as the weight dropped, I went from dreaming of food to dreaming of a new wardrobe. I even have several pocketbooks to go with my outfits..same for shoes and fashion jewelry. I feel like a life sized Barbie doll sometimes. Not that I have her measurements obviously, but I am having a great time dressing myself up after so many years just hoping to find clothes that fit.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
