Never Ever Again



Recommended Posts

So I know I was told no Pasta. But I read some people can handle it and I tried about 1/2 cup the other night and I was sick for 2 hours. It was worst then giving birth. It was s small portion of the chinese noodle packages from costco. I felt like I needed to have my stomach pumped. I can handle potstickers. I thought I would share the warning.

3 months. I was so tired that evening and hadn't planned anything. So I made this for my family and had a small portion. I know now I should have more leftovers prepared or made an egg.

I wasn't placed on any restrictions once through the stages however was advised to always follow Protein first rule. I am nearly 6 months out and I can tolerate a little bit of Pasta like an ounce or so but rice is the hard thing for me I will have a "taste" bite but have to quit after that or I will be sick I generally try to avoid both of these things though:)

I must have a sleeve of steel too. Pasta doesn't bother me at all. The only things that have caused trouble are very rich sweets or restaurant food that seems to be infused with lard or some other offending ingredient. Its always amazing to me how different everyone's experiences are with the sleeve.

Rice is my nemesis. Went to a Japanese steak house with friends a couple of weeks ago. Fell into bad habits of mindlessly eating while talking and ate more rice than I would have if I was paying attention like I should have been. OMG...I was SO SICK! :wacko: I didn't puke, but boy, just the right bump in the road on the way home and it would have been all over. Rice is the only food I have reacted this way to, so...I guess it's no more rice for me. No big deal though...I can still eat the meat and veggies, so I can still get an Asian fix if I want one. :)

Rice and Pasta are still no no's for me at 20 months out. Every time I try to eat either one, my tummy rebels and hurts for hours. If I try to drink Water anytime soon (within 2 hours), then they swell up in the tummy and hurt more. I'll pass on both. :)

Wow that is strange how different we all are. I don't have any problems other than sugar free pudding. Runs right thru me in minutes.

Hm. I had spaghetti made w whole wheat Pasta a few days ago and did fine. I'm 7 weeks.

I just chewed really really well.

Now dehydrated unsweetened banana chips. Forget about it. Puked for an hour. No joke.

It was probably my fault actually. I ate them really fast and I think it was too much for Sleevie. Also, since I ate fast I didn't chew well. . (And now I'll hide behind my computer because I'm embarrassed lol ) I bet it wasn't the food itself. I should have phrased my post differently. But I *am* scared to try them again just yet.

Sooo good tho.

I forgot to add bread to my "can't do" list

I occasionally do 1/2 of an Alternative English Muffin with little to no discomfort but straight up bread or Buns even 1/2 make me very uncomfortable.

      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?
