Chicken wings and worry

So I got the green light to incorporate new foods into my diet. I ate three chicken wings and they were so good. Tossed in spicy garlic and parm. Delish.

My concern is I seem to tolerate anything I eat. I can't eat a lot but have this cast iron stomach.

Is this unusual? How it's supposed to be? I also don't have to chew chew chew. I can take nearly normal bites with no issues and I can gulp water easily. It seems weird to me when I'm reading on here and everyone appears to have tender stomachs.

    I'm not sure why people are acting like chicken wings are the devil in this thread. The only issue I have with chicken wings is they are a pain to track, and you can't really track them accuratel

    Just because you can, doesn't mean you should. You're still healing. Nerves have been cut and things stapled back together, compromising some feeling you may have in your new sleeve. Try not to

  • I can eat anything as well but choose not to, that would defeat the reason for this 18 month journey. This is just a tool for the physical the mental needs work as well.

I am 9 weeks out from the sleeve and I too can eat anything!!! I also can take relatively large sips of liquid. I wondered id I wad alone. I guess everyone is different. I almost wish I was the oppisite though.

Right? I kind of do too. It scares me. But I'm really good about never over eating and staying on plan. I'm so glad I'm not alone. :)

My surgeon actually recommended chicken wings to me. Breast is actually tough meat where wings are softer and fattier. These are easier for the stomach. I think you will find some things will turn your stomach eventually




My NUT did too but probably not with the spicy garlic parm sauce lol. It was yummy tho.

Well I won't weigh in on the chicken wings because I didn't like them before and I don't like them now (I also don't like macaroni and cheese, my kids think I'm from an alien planet).

But yeah if you have the sleeve there's no reason you won't be able to tolerate anything. I have a few things, but most stuff is just fine! Early out its different but by about six months most of us can tolerate anything.




I don't think we can be friends. I don't trust anyone who doesn't like Mac & Cheese!
But seriously, this makes me feel better. Although I'm only five weeks out. I'm ok now. Just had me a little nervous.

Just because you can tolerate it doesn't make it a good idea. Chewing food is to help with satiety. And gulping water will flush your pouch and could make you feel hungry. My stomach is not tender at all so I try and follow the eating 'rules' so I won't be hungry all the time.
