Cherry tomatoes



Recommended Posts

Rediscovered these a few days ago and they are yummy. They are like a little treat almost. We usually buy them from costco, but I found some exotic Mexican variety at TJ yesterday. If you are far enough post op, these little guys are a really good snack.< /p>

I don't know if you're talking about the same thing but our TJ's has a little plastic carton of the assorted heirloom cherry tomatoes, different colors. They are really delicious!

Yes, those are the ones. So good as a snack and good for you.

So if a person were to eat a few of these outside of planned meals, would you consider it grazing? I think it is sort of a negative calorie food as the number of cals will be negated by the effort to eat and digest them. They seem to be "filling" also in that hunger recedes after eating them and I feel a little restriction. Your thoughts?

I would consider it delicious. Because I'm still at that carnivore stage where it seems that all I eat for my meals is meat, I try to work veggies in at non-meat times. I wouldn't get to eat them otherwise. I suppose I've always looked at vegetables (prepared correctly or eaten raw with nothing like butter to up the calories) as a free food that I don't count, no matter when I eat it.

But if you want to get technical, I suppose since it's vegetative matter, it is grazing >: D

Lol!

I agree with the negative calories. Carrots would be the same I think. I think I would eat them as one of my Snacks and then be proud of myself for eating negative calories for a snack rather than the high calorie Snacks I used to eat.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
