I put hot sauce on just about everything. Never have a problem. I would suggest that you go slow and try a little at a time. But tobasco and spicy BBQ sauces are my bestest buddies!

I love spicy foods so this was one of my concerns as well. Thankfully, I have no problem at all with spicy foods post-op :)

I have no problem tolerating spicy foods. I'm three months out. I do, however, have a problem tolerating spicy foods with nothing to drink, and since I can't drink while I eat anymore, that's a problem. So I mostly avoid spicy foods.

I haven't had any problems with spicy and hot foods, but I'm wondering if I'll still be able to enjoy the super hot habanero infused foods. That 30 minute drink wait might shut that down. :(

I am so glad to hear!!! Love my spicy food. It will be tough not drinking with meals. That's something I've always done.

      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.
