How far out can you have rice and beans im Dominican and it's hard to not eat rice I'm 7 days post op

Hmm...Interesting that you should ask this...I was told from the very beginning that rice was a "forever No-No"...and my nutritionist strongly advised the we implement "ricing cauliflower" in a food processor in lieu of any recipes we enjoyed that called for rice.

Amazingly enough, it is WONDERFUL. I'm barely a week post-op, so I'm in the full-liquid diet phase of recovery; however, I tried the riced cauliflower before my surgery--and I'll be fine with the substitution for the long haul.

I'd check with your nutritionist...to make absolutely sure.

wow mine didn't say rice was a no no for ever I'll ask when I see her on Tuesday but I wouldn't be able to live without rice , and everyone it's talking about the cauliflower rice I need to try it

Rice will be one of the last things you will be able to eat. At least 6 weeks, but it would be better to wait a few months. It expands in the stomach and is hard to digest. It's not something you can eat right away.

Not at 7 days. Beans and rice will likely be one of the last things you can have. I know it's tough, but at 7 days post op there is very little holiday food you can partake of.

It's not forever, but you will want to limit it since it's a processed carb. Cauliflower rice is a good substitute and if you add the same seasonings like you would when making rice & Beans would probably taste pretty good. However that's still probably nothing you should have until at least 6 weeks out.

I'm almost two years out and rice is one of the things that still causes me pain to eat. I think I am in the minority on that, but I have pretty much given it up because the few times I've tried it (including once on accident) I have been miserable.

Sorry, but rice is reallllllly hard to eat. It expands in your stomach. I puke with white rice almost every time.

Brown rice is a little better. It took a year to eat rice.

... but I wouldn't be able to live without rice ...

Yes you can. Rice does not equal life, I promise.

Hi. How are you? Where are you from?

As for your question, I'm 6 months post op , Puerto Rican and I loved my rice and beans lol. I can say I still enjoy the great flavors we have in the beans and would have a spoon of rice maybe once a month just to get rid of the urge. It does me me feel full faster but again it's once a month. I didn't try rice until after 16 weeks post op.

Rice is out for as long as your actively trying to lose weight.

Not exactly you can have brown or black rice in limited quantities. Black rice also contains Protein as well as all that good Fiber.
