How long did u wait to eat pizza?



Recommended Posts

I had part of one piece of thin crust cheese pizza at around 10 weeks. I mostly ate the cheese and it was not nearly as good as it was before.

I was eating reg food at 3 wks. Doc originally said 4 but I was tolerating things so well so I did it just chewed a lot. I eat pizza but try to get lean stuff and veggies or at least some meat. I eat the topping first and Mabye a bite or 2 of bread and I'm full but I do love my pizza! Can't remember only eating Part of one slice!

I had a bite at around 6-7 weeks... it was good but extremely filling and I didn't get much satisfaction from it. It was a craving that I wanted to satisfy and one bite did it. I keep a bag of Totino pizza rolls in my freezer so if I get a craving again (which isn't often) I will just pop a few in the oven and I enjoy my pizza!

Perfect size snack and I don't feel like I have to give up my favorite foods.. All in moderation! :)

pizza has been my one food that I can't eat. I tried it at about 6 weeks out and woke up in the middle of the night with this pain all over my stomach and chest...My husband, who is a nurse, said it was probably my gall bladder starting to go bad...Yay! And then...I was stupid for some reason and totally forgot about this episode or something and tried pizza a couple weeks later...Again I woke up in the middle of the night with severe pain all over. I will never eat pizza again! I don't care if I am 2 years out and my gall bladder is gone; that pain is not worth it!

My dietician told me to stay away from pizza because of the dough, but she said I can eat the toppings (cheese and sauce). However I'm thinking thin crust would be okay once time has elapsed. I was looking for pizza alternatives recently and I came across this recipe that I can't wait to try in a few weeks!

At one year out I still do not eat the Pizza Crust. I eat the topping off 1 piece and have a bite of the hard toasty part of the crust. I don't eat the doughy part. White flour breads/doughs are not on my menu.

You can also make your own pizza using a baked whole wheat tortilla for the "crust," Then add sauce and toppings. It's the easiest thing and a great way to use leftovers.

I have not yet had pizza, or fast food of any kind. I let myself have some Pasta and realized it was a mistake...I crave savory carbs just too much. Getting back to a type of eating I used to do...one or two things at a time, no sauces (mostly). I have color and texture and taste, so I am good. It seems like an extreme decison, but I have read alot about how our body imprints and remembers carbs and bad fats, and you re trigger that craving often without realizing it.

Love the cauliflower Pizza Crust. Yummy to scoop it into mini muffin tins and bake as cauliflower bites.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

    • buildabetteranna

      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!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
