Gluten Free

Hi,

I have a wheat/gluten allergy. Oddly, I didn't realize it until after I was banded. Bread/pastas didn't really go over well with my band anyway. But I'd try them when I had less restriction and realized that I felt horrrrrible after I ate them. So I stayed away and I feel so much better.

I actually have issues getting down "gluten free" foods such as gluten free pizza, et al. So really I just stay away with it for the most part.

If you need any suggestions or help or whatnot, feel free to send me a message. I've been banded for almost two years, so I'm very used to the band and the allergy!

I have a gluten intolerance and am getting banded 3/28. I am going to talk to the dietician this Wednesday about rice flour. I don't eat a lot of Gluten free breads anyway so I hope it's not an issue. I will let you know what she says. Congrats on your surgery.

I have gluten sentitivity but I can't really eat breads or pastas with my band anyway. I stick with corn based starches such as corn tortillas, oatmeal, and potatoes for starches, but not much of those either. It's such a struggle for me to get in enough Protein and some vegetables and fruit that I usually don't have room for the starches.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
