Rice Rice Baby...



Recommended Posts

I really like to make stir fry. I prefer mine over brown rice. Carbs notwithstanding, will rice be sleeve safe eventually?

Some people say they can't tolerate it after the sleeve... I've personally have not had a problem with it (brown rice) I did not try it until after the 3 month mark and never had more than a couple of spoons of it, but no problems.

I eat rice 2-3times a with my post workout meal. Not much though, maybe a 1/4-1/2 cup. I can't eat fish without it being mixed up with a little rice.

Someone mentioned making faux rice out of cauliflower.... I am not sure if I read it on here or another FB page or what. It may be something to look into.

I have a tablespoon or two of brown rice with some stuff. I could go with out it, but I like the texture difference with some of the stuff I have it with.

I am 10 weeks and have had a few bites with some of my foods. Esp. Curry chicken. I only allow a few bites though and its satisfying. I tried it at 9 week's.

I've read where it is one of that last things we an add and it may take longer to tolerate it than other things..... I will definitely want to add some rice here and there at some point too, but I'll be using it more like a garnish than the main event like I used to!

I think giving it a few months makes sense. Thanks for the feedback.

Riced cauliflower is fantastic. Put it in your food processor and pulse until it looks like rice. Put in microwave to cook(3-5 minutes) and depending if it is fresh or not does not need any Water, it makes its own steam. Add butter and enjoy.

I'm less than a week post-op, so I have no idea how it will sit with me, but I love to make fried "rice" with cauliflower. This is the recipe I have used in the past - maybe some of you would like it. http://nomnompaleo.com/post/3195098303/asian-cauliflower-fried-rice

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

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

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
