I just wanted go share what a wonderful expierence this has been for me! I'm sure my husband, who is very supportive would like for me to talk about something other than how little I can I eat! But this gas truly been a blessing, in so many ways. First I have lost 32 pounds since my surgery on march 23. Second I haven't thrown up, felt nauseated or poorly in general. I have been able to transition into regular foods with no problems.. I had lettuce yesterday and it went down just like it used to! And lastly I have been a carb queen for my entire adult life. Now I crave chicken, cheese, lunch meat, cottage cheese, etc. Before I could have done with out meat period. Now my carb cravings have subsided considerably. I eat healthy, but don't deprive myself of anything. If I want a nacho, I eat a nacho. If i want something sweet, I eat a bite. I was worried about adjusting to my new stomach, but it has been a breeze and I want folks to know it can happen that way! I was anxious to start my exercise regimin, but Injured my heel breaking up a fight at work. So now I'm on crutches....still losing tho! Thank all of you gor your support, this forum helped me choose this surgery and it has literally changed my life for the better!

Has anyone had changes in their foods? Like mine with the carbs? I'm interested to see how often that occurs!

Congratulations! That's great loss too!

I'm only 11 days out from surgery but I can honestly say I'm not missing all the carb rich foods I used to eat.

I will confess though that when I saw a pizza hut commercial on tv the other day...I had a moment of drooling...but it didn't linger. LOL

Isn't it amazing how this surgery works!!! I have not had ANY trouble eating anything!!! Not one single bite has bothered me. I also do not deprive myself of anything, if I want chips I have a few.

Sorry about your injury to your heel, hopefully you will heal up quick.

Yes I have had lots of changes in the foods that I eat, there are so many that I can't stand anymore, and a few that I like again. You will notice that your taste buds will change, and that you will crave some strange things. Some of your favorites will taste terrible.

Good luck to you and keep doing great!!
