I've been pretty lucky. The only things that have been difficult for me to eat are chicken, shrimp, and regular bread. I still eat chicken and shrimp regularly, but they fill me up extremely fast and give me that overly full, gross feeling. Steak and tuna are actually way easier for me to eat. Bread just sits like a rock, so I don't like to eat it. pizza is like that, too.

Fruits, veggies, and dairy seem to be fine for me.

I tolerate pretty much everything. Only time I have problems is when I eat too much, which I avoid like the plague.

But yeah, I'm lucky...Need to chew the hell out of everything, but it all goes down ok and have never experienced nausea since surgery.

I can tolerate most anything..Exception is running gel and gatorade. I can eat sugar in small amount but It makes me feel sluggish.

Only time I have thrown up is from the flu.

Love spicy and flavorful stuff.

Have to abridge what I said... refined sugar can be an issue for me. I can tolerate a couple of bites of a dessert or something naughty sweet (and really enjoy those couple of bites)....but if I try to eat a whole serving I'll feel like absolute poo.

I don't think it's true dumping syndrome cause I don't sweat or puke or need to lie down....I just feel kinda miserable for about 20 minutes...so I avoid it like hell. Maybe mild dumping?

But yeah...I do have to watch refined carbs and sugar. (which is probably for the best...as these things used to get me into trouble)

That is not an easy answer for me to provide. It depended on how far out I was from my surgery and what else I've eaten.

So for me, now that I'm fully healed, I can eat chicken and pork no problem! Those are the two that I am guaranteed to have a satisfying and non-food-sickies feeling afterwards. If you are looking for a 100% promise those are the two. Everything else could make me feel sick depending on the context/situation around what I'm eating. How rich it is, how much i've already eaten, how many carbs, etc. It's all a balancing act with me.

Oh, and Cereal. Apparently I can eat copious quantities of dry cereal (No milk because milk makes me sick now). lol! I'm not upset about this.

tuna, black Beans mashed with melted mozzarella, Soups, all sit well. eggs, cottage cheese, fish Halibut to be exact all sit super heavy and I can only eat about 1/2 oz at a time. I’m only 6 weeks post op so I haven’t really gotten into solid foods yet.

Soft meats or cheese are best for me. Ground turkey with taco seasoning, some refried Beans and a dab of sour cream is really good. I’m also eating a lot of chicken sausage (low calorie, high Protein, interesting flavors). No carbs for me, no sweets, tiny portions (3oz) and a LOT of chewing.

Right now the shakes are pretty much the only thing I can eat that don’t make me at least a little sick. But I remember when the shakes made me sick, too, so hopefully the stuff that’s making me sick now won’t make me sick in 6 weeks.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
