Well, after 6 months of Spartan dieting, (6 weeks of which is post op) I ate about 2/3 of a slice. Didn't eat all the crust but pretty much scraped it clean! :scared0: OMG!!! It was soooo good. But the best part was that I was full and satisfied with less than a full slice. In the past, I could easily munch down 1/2 pizza by myself. Sometimes, with wings and a salad.

And the scale even moved this morning...down another lb. It doesn't get any better than this!!! :bored0:

I love this post. I might have to print it and hang it up. Good for you georgie! I especially like the line "sometimes with wings and salad" sounds familiar... this gives me good hope too!

Well, the fact that pizza has Tomato sauce on it also gave me a little worry. Prior to surgery I was having a little stomach trouble with red sauce. But it was fine! Still taking my nexium though. Not sure that it would have gone down so well without it. I also chewed it up really well...not my usual pizza inhalation of the past.

I love my sleeve!

I haven't had pizza yet, but your post made me want to make one some time this week. I'm actually gonna post a recipe for my favorite home-made thin crust pizza in the recipe forum, now that I'm thinking about it, so check it out.

I just made my own last week for my husband.. since we had a fresh basil plant. Mmm I used the fresh mozz. too and a little sauce. Really good and thin/crisp. I used a pillsbury pizza dough from the dairy aisle and it was okay. But I'll bet a homemade one is even better. Gonna check it out, thanks!

I agree.. not a choice for me to be trying TOO early. Hey pizza really can be a healthy food if we made it ourselves with the thin crust and healthy olive oil, veggies, fresh part skim cheese, right? Like they do in Italy?

I wonder how many of the Angelo's "specials" my husband and I have ordered and demolished in our lifetimes. You know the type I'm talking about, right? Man... the thought of it now really makes me shake my head.

      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.

      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!
