Well, with spaghetti, you likely would not have dumping issues as much as it would sit very heavy and cause pain. It could cause some people to have RH, but I consider that to be different than dumping.

Wow. The experience is very similar. I waited until I was in MM to test the waters with pasta. And because I've worked to develop new food choices, I actually prefer my zoodles and Zeroodles to eating real pasta. No carb hangover. No heaviness or nausea. I don't eat Chinese take out cuz of too much hidden sugar and RH. I make it at home and eat it at least 2x a week usually. I don't eat rice any more, but I've had a bite of Mexican rice with charro beans without issues.

Fabulous job! Why work harder hon? 2lbs per week is FAB!!! And to do it while sick? Shux! You are DOING THIS THANG!!! Congrats!

Have you or are you changing your behaviors with food? Do you eat the same foods that got you the invitation to the Obesity Ball in the first place, except that you are eating "everything in moderation?" Have you or are you changing your behaviors with food? Do you eat the same foods that got you the invitation to the Obesity Ball in the first place, except that you are eating "everything in moderation?" These are the real question. For most of us, if we eat the same foods we ate as MO people, once our tools mature and our bodies adapt--anywhere from 18mos to 5 years, we run the risk of partial or total regain. It's enough to scare every one of us straight...and yet it doesn't. I say it all the time. This is not magic bean surgery. This is a tool with a brief window of time that allows us to push a "Metabolic Reset" button and allows us to lose weight easier than it will ever be before or again and allows your body to defend a lower weight. But you don't use a screwdriver to hammer in a nail. And you don't use a hammer to screw in a screw. The tool is only what you make of it and the lasting headwork is by far the hardest part of the whole process. And even though this will be the "easiest" weight loss you've ever had, every day takes dedication, work, effort, action, and repetition, and denial. And it's pretty Forkin' HARD!

Whah????!!!!! Tiny and smokin!

to further horrify you..google protein fluff...it's part Flubber and part crazy good.

LOVE!!!

1 hour 6-7 x week.

First off, breathe and welcome. You're in the right place! BP is an awesome support tool. I'm sorry to hear about your daughter! ((hugs)) I have no words for that but I will pray for y'all!! 15lbs is very do-able!!! But you're right. The headwork is the hardest and most important part of the equation!! Come join us in this thread! You should read it from start to finish! It's good material for the mind! And might help you refocus on losing the regain!

Damn! Brick Shi*house comes to mind! hahahahaha! FABULOUS! Wear it to the grocery, to confession, to bed, shower in it! KYSO!!!!

You have a way with noodles! They look FABULOUS!! Have you tried the Zeroodles brand from Alex's BP store? The one with the oat fiber added? I love them!! Having them tonight with Dad's Meatballs and Sauce! The night out sounds fun. Have a blast!!!! 🤣 I got nothin for this...hahahaha

You are just early days hon. You are still healing. Of course meat sits heavy in your tummy. Eat things like foil wrapped fish, or tuna/chicken salad right now. Things that are wet and light.

I'm wearing mourning black for you. ((hugs))

Dang! Is that by choice or pouch size sweetie? What kinds of food are you eating? What liquids calories are you having?

Whatever dude but VSG and RNY were NEVER intended to be part of the same surgery.

Salad yesterday - a confetti chopped salad with tuna and cottage cheese salad. I ate all of it over 45 minutes.

Almost right...it's 1-800-Call-Fluffy hehe
