I Was Wondering



Recommended Posts

hey i was wondering if anyone still ate pizza. cause i am so craving pizza right now and i know it not the best thing for me or my band. if you do eat pizza does anyone have trouble eating it. and does anyone have any healthy recipes or good ideas for the pizza to not get stuck. does anyone have any recipes for making lettuce wraps. thanks for the ideas folks.

I can still eat pizza but only in small quantities. I struggled with it when I was first banded but it has become easier. I would advise you to go with thin crust not deep pan, only have 1 slice and eat it very slowly.

I just eat the toppings. The bread doesn't work for me at all. You could also get a wheat tortilla and make your own version of a pizza. I've even used BBQ Sauce with chicken, cheese, and veggies as toppings.

I buy a pizza from papa murphy's. they are thin crust deLITE pizza's. I love the chicken artichoke one. I cut and weigh on my digital scale, such a treat!!! I add extra spinach.

1 ounce = 65 calories

3.3 fat

4.7 carbs

4.4 Proteins

Lean Cuisine makes a surprisingly good little personal pizza. It's the perfect portion, too.

do you recommend lean cuisine meals for a healthy food option. something good for lunch and dinner maybe

I was banded in May 2011 and I had my first slice of pizza last month and it tasted soooo good. cornut.gif I had to take it very slow and the crust had to be crispy. I havent had any since it should only be for a treat. Nothing is off limits with my way of eating. I just now have a tool that will tell me when enough is enough. Good Luck.

I actually eat Lean Cuisine, Smart Ones, or Healthy Choice. They're the perfect portion for us bandsters. I'm having one tonight for dinner even.

You can also try to find the breads in grocery stores called Flatouts. They advertise on the package that they are good to make a pizza with. They are super thin, but am not sure if they would remain soft or get crispy with baking.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
