What’s a food you actually miss? Mine is a sub sandwich. I want one with a huge roll, meat, cheese, mayo, etc!

I miss plain boiled, long grain rice. It was my favourite food in the world best with a very hot indian curry.

not long emma and you can have it again and what a perfect food to be able to have after!

I'm 5 days post op and am so over everything liquid. I had a 2 week preop liquid diet. I'm on full liquids until 2 weeks post op. I just need something/anything textured and more flavor! I can't wait until the pureed stage!!!! I want tuna, chicken or egg salad and some super soft veggies with seasoning.

I would love any suggestions!!

Liquids, liquids, liquids...not a fun time but it’ll be over soon. You got this

I was in a liquid diet for 2 weeks pre op and now for 3 weeks post op. I still have over a week before puree stage. I honestly will eat anything with flavor and texture. Some fish or salad will be fine. I got up this morning thinking I could have real food like eggs. Liquid diet is definitely harder than anything else for me.

Honestly? I miss Pepsi. I loved the bubbly-ness of it. And REAL sweet tea. The diet tea is ok, but it’s not the same. But I’m finally ok with that. If that makes sense. ?

Why are we not allowed rice?

I was told to avoid it because it expands like bread and pasta and forms a gummy ball in your stomach. Then that doesn’t leave room for the protein that will keep you satisfied for longer so you will eat again too soon.

Ah. thank you, I haven’t been told that but will avoid where possible.

It is weird but I don’t crave all of my favorites anymore.

I am two months post op and I hope I keep feeling like this forever!

I’m just so obsessed with getting to goal that I think I’ve convinced myself that all of my faves are evil. Lol

I'm lucky that I've found healthy options for most things I liked, and I didn't eat junk food before, however... I miss cookies, particularly homemade chocolate chip cookies like the size of your head.

Those are all such good healthy foods. Why can't you eat them? (Or are you still in a soft food phase?)

My doctor considers cottage cheese a liquid. The fat-free version is surprisingly tasty at this stage!
