Noodles Or Pasta



Recommended Posts

Somebody have advice' date=' why we can't have a few noodles for substance in our soups.[/quote']

Noodles tend to glob up in the band. Some can eat it that way, some can't. For me, everything determines on time of day, stress level and how much time I have to eat. When in doubt, don't do it. You will learn quickly what you can and can't have. Good luck!

It sucks, but something we all go through. I had 2 weeks clear liquids, 2 weeks full liquids, then 2 weeks of mushies before I could finally eat actual food. It was a long 6 weeks but worth it.

This is your time for healing. Stick to it, it's worth it :)

Your stomach churns to digest solids. Your stomach is healing from being stitched around the band. So no churning allowed! Sucks but you will make it!

I had my band 12/21 and now have not found any food that I get eat, although I don't eat bread or drink soda. During the liqued stage I did add a little cream Soup strained and it helped but I would not try noodles just yet. I can eat angel hair Pasta now, in small amounts. You will get through it, and then you won't even remember how tough it was. I love my band and feel great. I know I need a bit more restriction, but in time it will come. Good luck.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
