Starches?

[bariutiful 72]

Which month did you guys start consuming starches again? Or anything starchy?

Starches were part of the diet from the beginning, e. g. carrot or potato Soups and in the mushy phase mashed potatoes.

However, diets vary not only from country to country but also from hospital to hospital sometimes.

I'm six months post-op and I limit my carbs. I don't eat anything starchy like bread, potatoes or Pasta.

I have had 2 dumping experiences both with foods that were suppose to be healthy. With my Protein goals to meet first and then veggies and some fruit , I don’t have much more room for starchy stuff... I try to use food as medicine. If there was a quota for unhealthy food I think I hit that amount 20 years ago.. Pasta, bread , potatoes even sweet potatoes I know I can get pretty obsessed about so I haven’t tried them , not just to avoid not feeling good but if what I am doing now is getting to my goals I’m not trying anything different.. will I incorporate some of my favorite stuff down the line at maintenance, not sure yet. My daughter had the sleeve and she looks amazing and eats everything in moderation so I know it’s possible... I’m just to anxious to fail to risk going back to triggers foods and I may not ever be able to and that’s ok. I feel satisfied with what I get to eat.

Thank you guys all for each of your feed back! I was curious because every surgeon has its own stages .. I am 4 months post op and haven’t had no starches at all or nothing starchy .. on my surgeons book it tells me to start incorporating starches till 6 months post op or till about 75% excess body fat is off
