I started eating dal regularly after week 4 because even though it's pureed and a good source of Protein, it gives you gas. I did have a spoonful every once in a while during the puréed phase to get the taste of it and it did not make me sick.

Roti is something that I stay away from even now because I am still in the weight loss process and that is our bread which is a no no. Roti/bread is something that we will have to eliminate to once or even less than that in a day type of thing in the long run. As in, eat less than once per day in comparison to with every meal the way we normally do.

I was okay with spices after week two but afghans don't use the amount of spices that Indians do. Why don't you put a little bit spice, try a spoonful and see how your stomach reacts??

I am sorry but I have been outside all day today so I didn't get a chance to see the message. I ate a small amount of basmati rice two months out. It filled me very quickly but as expected, I was hungry shortly after. I have also lost my appetite for rice. I don't like it and I don't miss it.

Isn't it such a challenge to track calories with our dishes?? There are a gazillion things that we put in one dish. It's scary and leaves us with very limited options on the menu.

Without rice or roti, there is nothing we can have for a meal.

Lema, I'm in London - I had my surgery on the 15th Sept. Where are you from? When did you have your surgery? So far I've stayed away from our dishes. I'll have the odd soft chicken when I cook for hubby and the kids.

Hello I'm from Pakistan

Two more days and i will be 1 month out of surgery

Well my doctor suggested me to try minced chicken mutton and lentils and Beans but very soft after I complete a month

To be honest i miss desi food a lot I'm someone who loves spicy food and biryani

But I'm controlling

I would stay away from rice as much as possible and roti/nan

Because they will reduce my weight loss.

Btw when did you have your surgery?

I am from Canada but I did my surgery at Mexico because my bmi was low but my health issues were too many on top of the pcos.

I will eat one meal the normal stuff of what everyone else eats unless it's rice or something very unhealthy.

My first nasty experience after surgery was with nan and chicken. Nan is too chewy and elasticky and I was only a month out. I don't know what I was thinking.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...
