Missing you

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

    I am almost 2 years out. I miss enjoying my food. I keep trying things hoping to experience the old pleasure, but it's just not there. This is definitely a mixed blessing. It's like I want to really e

  • I was able to have salmon when I got to soft food stage and it was worth the wait! I have asparagus at least once a week, and I have also had shrimp. Those days will be here for you before you know it

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

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.

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. :D

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!
