Recommended Posts

I can eat rice but feel extremely ful ( uncomfortable really) in the past year I only had a slice of bread maybe 2 or 3 times I don't crave it or need it so I don't buy it that's the easiest, just don't buy it lol and Pasta is on occasion but I just stay with eatting Protein first and there's no room for any thing else. After an hr then i can get veggies in. Just follow the plan yup sounds boring right but the outcome looks good [emoji3].... love sea food pre-measure and weight...put in snack baggie they are great and ill grab one when I think I'm hungry..its a great treat lots of protein too!!!

I am 3 years out, and can tolerate all of these. I have slowly started regain. I have cut them back out (we all know they should not be restarted!) and have started back to the basics!

My little bit of advice would be not to even start what you have been told not to do! Not even a little bit! It is how we all got in trouble to begin with!

I eat brown rice, Protein Pasta and low glycemic breads (sourdough, pump, whole wheat) pretty regularly.

I don't eat white rice. Brown rice only in small quantities. Never more than a quarter cup.

Protein pasta is wonderful, but I eat about a half a cup and have to call it quits.

bread, I eat half a slice at a time. No white bread, italian, french, etc.

What is protein pasta? I'm very intrigued.

I eat brown rice occasionally. I also eat a half of 100% whole wheat English muffin or bagel as a Breakfast choice once per week. I will tell you that the mornings where I do eat this for breakfast, I feel full all morning and into the afternoon. I think its because its so Fiber rich, I'm not sure. I haven't tried Pasta, but I usually eat "zoodles", zucchini noodles, instead.

Also, do any of you watch Shark Tank? They had an episode where they premiered their "Palmini" Pasta. It looks like real pasta noodles, but it is made from hearts of palm. I looked it up on Amazon and it has great reviews. I'm interested in ordering a case.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
