You may be able to eat the same type of food, but not the same amount. I was trying to make a funny!

I wouldn't be so quick to go back to old favorite food haunts. This is a time to really change the way that you eat -- not just the quanity of food, but the quality. An occasional "treat" is fine, but fast food and PF Changs shouldn't be part of your regular diet.

Not to be finger-waggy... but I know that the first few months post-op for me were critical in totally rethinking and restructuring my relationship with food.

But to answer your question, you can probably eat there once you are cleared for regular foods. For now, Soups would probably be OK - just watch out for whole tough veggies that might hurt your sleeve.

You will be able...soon. I would just pick the healthier options there, I know some of them are pretty calorie ladden. Good luck!

I can't do veggies or ground meats yet, but with my band (similar restrictions) my go to was Soup or lettuce wraps.

Can't help you there - I avoid chains - if I recall correctly, keeping sodium and MSG in mind, the ice tea will be ok, lol.

      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.
