I’m 14 months post opp. Haven’t had pulled pork yet, has anyone else if so how did it affect you? Doctor said I’ll be fine but I’m still a little nervous to try (and yes I still call him about every and any little food question )

Current weight: 170

Thank you, I’m going to a friends birthday dinner tomorrow at a bbq style restaurant. So going to try, hoping I don’t get sick or anything while there

Oh hopefully you'll be ok just try fit near the bathroom so you can make a quick exit stage left if needed. The joys of a sleeve but the benefits definitely outweigh the negatives.
Enjoy your night out though!

Haha I know right, sometimes I miss being able to eat normally. I’m hoping they have pulled chicken so I won’t have to worry [emoji30]

No issues for me! I don't eat it all the time, because it's not the leanest cut of pork, but when I do eat it, I enjoy it quite a bit with no issues. I just eat it in a bowl. No fixings. (no room!)

I've had it a few times. No issues at all. I do better with meats like pulled pork or shredded chicken. Eating more solid cuts of meat are much harder. The only issue I had with pulled pork was getting some heartburn because of the sauce used. I'm not big on smoke flavorings to begin with so I like them even less now. In regards to actually eating it I don't think you'll have any issues if you've done fine with other cuts of meat.

I can eat it... now that I've learned how to do it carefully. The first time I had it, the fattiness of it was overwhelming and I got nauseous and threw up. The next time, I shredded it more and ate a smaller portion, pairing it with some fresh sliced tomatoes and cucumbers to help it hit my stomach more mildly. That worked great and I've had it the same way several times since then.

I make my own. I make it with pork tenderloin in the crock pot. Very lean and tender, and I have no issues with it.

I cut it with a knife before I put it in my mouth and chew it really well. Works out great:)

Pulled pork is AWESOME, I just stay away from the sauces and of course the fatty parts. Pork and chicken are my go-to Proteins.

I started having this from about three months out and I've never had an issue. Plus, it's all kinds of delicious yo.

I had it at 6.5 weeks, no issues, nor any issues with the King’s Hawaiian roll I put it on.

The only meat I’m still having trouble with is fast-food hamburger patties.

      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!!
