Semi on topic. But I actually really like Edamame & Black Soybean Pasta. They are pretty decent substitutes for regular Pasta and have a huge amount of Protein, and moderate carbs.

Oh goodness, I don't think I could get past how much the black soybean one looks like worms 🤢🤢🤢

I am distressed to find that I can't seem to find the Lentil Zeroodles anywhere anymore. ;(

bread promised to be my friend but was not It still lies to me. One thing is that since my surgery I cannot stand the smell of the preservatives and most bread products and tortillas. I have become hypersensitive so I’m limited to either fresh or frozen varieties. I decided back in 2017 when in France I can have bread and croissants. I can have Bagels in New York City. Bread still calls my name.

Aldi Zero Net Carb bread was a THING back in the fall. Quickly went out of stock due to demand (think Popeye's chicken Sandwich). But rumor has it is is back as a regular item, but supplies are still spotty

Of course never having it in your house is an option. However, do you think it would work if you bought some and put the loaf in the freezer with 2 slices in a baggie and let yourself have one baggie a week?

I don’t allow bread in my house and if I buy it for the kids, I make sure it has raisins in it. 🤢

I understand the trigger. Mine is chocolate. I LOVE high quality, pure milk chocolate (or with champagne infused 🥴). I’ve come to realize that it just can’t be in my house. We all have our vices, it’s just a matter of drawing a line in the sand and not crossing it. 💚

So, update.... I gave all of my bread and crackers to my stepdad. Just better NOT to have it in my house. I will still allow it if I am out at a restaurant... but it doesn't need to be in my home where I can just eat it every meal. Already dropped 2lbs by reverting back to my strict bariatric-friendly diet. I plan on having some falafel on a pita for lunch today - my "bready" treat for the week - going to lunch with a coworker.

I'm a year post-op and still can't eat bread because it gives me the "foamies." I consider that a blessing to keep me from eating it. One less food to make me fat.

Great job seeing an issue, addressing it, and then seeing a positive result! Bravo !

My kryptonite is potato chips.
When we went to DC last month, I thought I was being smart in buying some pita chips and hummus, but the pita chips triggered me the same way unfortunately.
With the amount of restriction that I still have, I can wolf down half a bag of pita chips AND 3 glasses wine apparently.

It was frightening how quickly it all went in and sadly it didn’t make me one bit sick.

We didn’t buy any kind of chips the rest of the trip....

I finally found some of this at our Aldis, and it isn't TOTALLY bad--imagine bread with cardboard and sawdust mixed in before it's baked...LOTS of fiber...

I avoided eating any carbs for so long but finally started eating whole grain bread about 5 weeks ago. [..] But now all I friggin' eat is bread!

Ok, so you've avoided bread for quite a bit of time even though you obviously like it and now you're wondering why you're craving bread like crazy. Now that makes me wonder...

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
