It depends on your program. My NUT allows small amounts of Pasta once we are past the mushy phase and onto soft solids. She actually prefers some carbs because it's good for brain fat

I think you will sabotage your weight loss efforts. You should be focusing on Proteins and non-starchy vegetables Noodles are all carbs. I can't have any refined carbs on my plan. I guess if your plan says it's ok, then go for it; However, be prepared for it to slow down your weight loss.

miracle noodles, zucchini noodles (zoodles), or edamame noodles are good substitutes, just cook until very soft.

I have accepted that I will most likely never have Pasta again in my life. No food is worth going back to 400 pounds, and I'll be damned if I let myself go there again.

Food is just fuel, and pasta will slow (or halt) weight loss, take up valuable real estate, and give relatively little in exchange for all of that.

Good luck!

Your life doesn't stop that's where alot of people are misunderstanding the surgery, you change your lifestyle of eat and they didn't say give up eating yes you're going to have to eat things and proportions and yes you might not have Pasta as much as you want. But if you doing everything that you're supposed to be doing by eating everything in proportion three meals a day Snacks in between and you technically do not need the Snacks, and you work out how you're supposed to be working out you will see the progress but still enjoying life and food

yayyy

Try miracle noodles. They are plant based and take the place of Pasta and rice!

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
