I love menudo and pozole and they both contain hominy. I was wondering if hominy is the same as corn. Can our sleeve digest it?? Has anyone tried it?

I know that I ate corn in the cob 2 days ago and I was able to digest it. harmony reminds be of a larger corn. In fact i have read numerous stuff about how corn is not good for us and I recently read that corn is good for us. so confusing. :)

I hear yah Dorrie. Thanks for your input. I'm only 3 weeks out and hominy is something I would love to eat but I don't want hurt m sleeve. I wish there wasn't so much contradiction about foods we eat! I know my surgeon/nut/case manager all said corn was no no for life!!

Mmmmmmm I love hominy sauteed in a little butter with a dash of salt and pepper. LOVE IT!

Hopefully i can have a few bites of it again in the future. Seems like every Doc's restrictions are different. I say if ya want something try it in a small amount. If it doesn't agree with youor digest properly, then ya know not to have it again.

I had hominy just the other day (almost 7 months out), no problem. Just remember to chew it up well. It seems like the issue with corn would be the tougher skin. Hominy has no skin.

Hominy grits with butter... mmmmmm good. :wub:

I had pozole on my mushies diet. I couldn't terate the pork in it but the broth and the hominy went down so smooth. I'm not much of a menudo eater but I do love me some chicharon, it goes down so smooth, and I'm 3 months post op.

Well if grits is allowed then so should hominy. I can't wait to give it a try. Thanks for your input.

What's hominy?

It's a type of corn, usually large and white in color. If you crush hominy it makes grits.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
