Toast a slider?



Recommended Posts

Hey everyone, I was just wondering if toast is a slider food? When I eat Protein I have so much restriction at 2 months out and sometimes I can feel it creeping back up my throat. I had the smallest bit of salmon last night and felt SO full after. Well, I decided to have my toast last night and I managed one large slice of toast in 15 minutes with a nice satiated feeling but not a stuffed feeling like with protein. I just wanted to check if that's normal. There is always this feeling of..."oh..that went down well. That was a big slice of toast...oh no, have I stretched my sleeve?" LOL. The paranoia set in. It's not like I could sit and eat toast after toast, though; one was definitely enough, just surprised my tummy didn't reject it.

you betcha! I love toast cause it doesn't cause that tight yuk creeping out of your throat feeling. . .I can easily down 2 slices of toast without a problem, but give me 1 chicken leg, good lord!

haha! That's very true, isn't it? Protein is so filling on the sleeve but that toast just seems to go down like a treat!

I totally know what you mean! If I eat fish or chicken I fill up sooooo quick and it just sits in my throat which is so uncomfortable, but if I have toast or Jennie-o Turkey, either ground or the cutlets, it does great in my tummy! Weird! :blink:

Any carbs will go through you a lot quicker than the Protein will. Which is why you are supposed to limit the carbs

Thanks! It isn't a sprint it's a marathon and yes I do feel better and have made many positive changes but I know lurking inside is the old me and my real battle will be for life... Keeping it off and staying healthy, but I feel I have it in me and I have all the tools I need to do it!

You have to read the fine print also check out my intro to really understand. I came home in 2009 on a mission I lost the initial 200 lbs on my own with blood sweat tears and nutrition eating 5 small meals allowing myself one cheat meal a week whether it was chicken parm or $15 at taco bell.

I cut out beer and soda for the most part as I knew I was headed toward a lifetime without it and really stayed away from the sweets.

I ramped up my exercise when I was 575 lbs I couldn't hardly do 10 minutes on the treadmill at 2 mph and now today and yesterday I did over 3 miles on the elliptical in 30 minutes and did a full body workout upper one day/lower the next

It really is easy when you think about it but we are our own worst enemies 3 things will keep you on track 1) Eat Protein 2) Drink Water 3) Exercise... of course Vitamins, support groups, and doctor follow ups are extremely important as well but those first three things are what really gets the sleeve working for you.

I've lost 105 lbs in 7+ months post sleeve and after recommitting to working my sleeve this week I think i'm going to see another big drop on the scale tomorrow can't wait!!!

      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.
