Dooter 1,457 Posted January 27, 2012 I recently succumbed to the temptation of the hugantic, ginormous jar of Vlasic from Sam's Club. Don't go there hungry, people. It just takes you to a baaaad place. My surgery is in little more than two weeks. I'll never eat all those. I'll come home and those pickles will be in the back of the fridge......lookin' at me.....

clk 3,519 Posted January 27, 2012 See, I always LOVED pickles, particularly the extra crunchy and garlicy Claussen ones (when I couldn't get to a good deli and fish one out of a barrel, anyway) and used them as a snack all the time before surgery. Now my taste buds are wacky and they taste too salty and too sour for me! I've tried a few different brands but no dice, they just don't do it for me anymore. I will add that I was always told to limit pickles (and any other "free" food) to 3 or less a day because of the sodium, though, so watch that if you notice a small bump up on the scale. ~Cheri Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

grannyk 58 Posted February 17, 2012 I have eaten more dill pix since I have been sleeved that in the decade before!!! It may sound gross, but I dice up pickle spears and add to cottage cheese along with black olives. Yummo!! Salty and tangy and very healthy. You'll never be able to convince me I am deprived of good food just because I've been sleeved. Kathe 1 Dooter reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
