That "corn" would be such a problem food....I had it for the 2nd and last time yesterday. My 1st horrible stuck issue was w/ chicken and some cut corn off the cob about 2 weeks ago. Yesterday I cooked and one of our veggies was corn...OMG worst experience EVER, I threw up awful :( . I orginally thought I hadn't chewed the chicken well enough, but now since this has happened again...I think it is the corn????

Anyone else had this problem, also what are some of your problem foods?

TIA!

Try cream style corn. You won't have to chew so well. My worst problem food is red meat. It doesn't matter how tender and moist it is, it's not going! I'm fine with poultry but beef, pork and lamb always give me trouble. We all have to just learn what we can and cannot eat.

I have issues with really soft foods like squash, I think just don't chew them enough.

I've never had issues with corn. Whole kernel or popped. It's one of my go to roughage foods. Try, as someone else said, creamed corn. Or regular corn without the meat.< /p>

i was banded March 28 which makes today my 3 month mark. I've had 2 fills for a total of 3cc's and I've never had a problem with corn or popcorn at this point. My surgeon did warn me that corn could be a problem but at this point it hasn't been. I feel great now and I've lost 24.5 lbs!!! I haven't found anything that really gives me any problem as long as I chew, chew, chew. I haven't tried to eat beef, other than hamburger, sticking mostly to chicken dishes.

I haven't had a problem with veggies at all. My can't-eat food is mostly bread and rice. I tried eating chinese food yesterday (just plain sauteed chicken with pea pods, celery, carrots in a clear sauce) and it came up immediately. I think I was just really tight yesterday, though - I couldn't eat anything till dinner.

I had a problem with eggs for a while, no matter how they were cooked, but that seems to be okay now. I think it's just trying to eat them for Breakfast that doesn't work.

I had trouble with corn kernels for about 2 years postOp regardless of on or off the cob. Finally that issue went away and I can enjoy corn on the cob....although it now takes only about 1/2-3/4 of a full cob to be plenty if I want anything else with my meal.

My nutritionist doesn't want us to eat much corn at all.. as it is fairly high in sugar. And besides, almost all corn in the US is GM (genetically modified).

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
