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.

      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.
