My band does not like rice ... I have tried it prepared six ways from Sunday and it always gives me problems so I stay away.

A small amount of wheat Pasta is fine for me. I limit myself to 1/4 cup and don't have any trouble. If I eat more then that ... It usually comes back up.

In addition to the calories I think you need to be careful because pasta slides easily... And we forget to chew it.

thank you all for the info. I had a craving today for Chinese fried rice but refrained. Old habits.

I'm with Missy. I eat that stuff also on a regular basis. I fix a chicken and rice casserole that is awesome, but a little high in sodium. I need to find some low sodium cream of chicken Soup or learn to make my own. I don't wanna give up my casserole. It is high in Protein and would be good for ya if not for the sodium.

I could not eat rice in the beginning. It was horrible, I can now. I make sure nothing I eat us dry, if it appears slightly dry I will not eat it. That causes me a huge problem.

I eat rice and Pasta without issues as well. Granted I don't eat a lot and I do tend to mix it with my other food. Curry and rice tastes so much more normal than curry on it's own. And no potatoes, rice and pasta are not high in calories although everyone believes they are - it is the stuff that you add to them that is generally high in calories.

I eat rice, Pasta, potatoes, and bread without any problems. I just take small bites and chew to mush.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        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!
