What are some foods that you cannot eat anymore? I've heard everyone is different. Just curious

Also tell me how much Fluid in your band and size of band as well as where you are in your journey.

For me: I cannot do:

Any bread

Sushi

chicken gives me a hard time

fruit with skin

Potato skins of any kind

lunch meats sometimes trouble me

Onions

Tortillas

Currently I'm in the green zone. Surgery 4-17-12. 75 lbs lost

I really miss cheeseburgers but don't miss the 75 lbs!!

Honestly, there isn't anything I can't eat. It's rare I even get stuck. The food I'm most likely to get stuck on is dry meat, though.

I was banded 14 months ago, I have 5.2cc in my 10cc band, and I've lost 196 pounds.

There isn't much either that I can't eat. I can't eat too many raw carrots and snow peas also get stuck at times. I will eat grapes but spit out the skin, but go figure that I will eat the whole skin from a baked potato! If something gets stuck, it is usually from eating too fast when I am really hungry.

Maybe I need to eat slower or smaller bites when I try my troublesome foods.

It's a hard habit to break Ashleigh still have to think about slowing down every time pick up the fork! I would hate not to be able to eat anything that I used to before banded.

      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.
