Your worry about band slippage from eating the pizza was appropriate. One of the common causes of band slippage is failure to follow the post-op diet progression. But since that pizza incident is in the past, the best thing you can do is to acknowledge the lesson learned and move on. So it's time to stop beating yourself up over it.

To my understanding the bad part of the pizza is the crust. I found a link on LBT with recipes on grinding cauliflower and using the for crust. Everything would be "mushy" then except the pepperoni

Hope you're eyes a dry by now. I am sure the majority of us have eaten something we weren't supposed to on certain stages. Just get back on track. I've had pizza too, early on when I first went on solids, only had half a slice and it made me sick because it was too heavy. The smell was much nicer than the taste!

Hugs you'll be fine, it's all new with this lapband and takes time and willpower.

I'm here crying my eyes out' date=' I broke down today and ate 2 slices of thin crust pizza . I'm in my mushie phase of the diet so I know I'm not suppose to eat things like that . I feel so bad about what I've done, because I've been doing so well <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':(' /> I really need some comfort right now <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':(' />[/quote']

if people are honest . . . we all have an occassional "oops" it is impossible to do everything perfect just because you have had lap band surgery. it is not failure until you quit trying. tomorrow is a new day ---> move on

        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
