I had pizza for the first time and I must say I wasn't with it at all but I gave it a try and it didn't give me any problems!! If your going to eat it make sure you eat it very slow and try a thin pizza something that's not heavy b/c when it's heavy it won't go down atleast that's wat I think

So' date=' I'm only day 5 post op, but pizza is my favorite food ever! And I realize it is not good for you and I by no means plan to eat it very often once I'm allowed to start eating solid foods, but has anyone had any trouble eating pizza with their band? I've heard that breads and pastas can be hard for people with bands to eat, so I'm wondering if this includes pizza? I hope not, lol.[/quote']

I can't eat it at all. I had 5mls of Fluid in my band straight off though and now have 6mls and I've tried to eat it a couple times and it always gets stuck... Thick and thin crust. Sucks I know, I love pizza and the smell kills me :(

Well, everyone is different! My 1st ever case of getting stuck was pizza! It caused me to start sliming and then it wanted to come up. If you can make yourself take tiny bites,stop at 1 small slice, and have crispy crust, you might be bale to eat it after you heal. Right now, you are just in the dreaming about food stage. I watched every commercial on TV and drooled after my surgery. But remember, eating it, may have contributed to your weight problem. Best wishes, Karen

Sometimes if its thin and I can not have any toppings on it besides cheese and sauce. I also don't eat the crust.

Sometimes i can eat 1 piece most times 1/2.

I usually stay away from bread as a rule tho cause it's not my friend anymore.

Every "body" is different.

I am at good restriction so no pizza for me be because it will get stuck. Earlier before good restriction I probally could had some. But I am gonna tell you at my surgeon would tell me why are you having surgery if you aren't changing your ways. I have gave up lots of my and have found alternate likes or differerent variations. In doing this I have lost 75 lbs and still going. Good luck to you.

I can eat pizza if I get the thin crust from Dominos. It's so thin and crisp that it's almost like a cracker. If I eat the deep dish or regular crust. I get sick.

It's funny you said that about the cheese. I have thought that it was the cheese that made me sick. But I can eat regular cheese so I thought it was crazy that pizza cheese would do that.

It could also be the grease. I thought since I can't eat the crust, I would just eat the toppings, but that made me sick too!

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

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
