You learn pretty quick what not to do with the sleeve! Lol....you will be able to eat that stuff again one day, but for now you got to take it easy! I don't miss that stage of recovery at all! I am two years and one month out now and I have learned ( almost to a science) exactly what I can and cannot handle. I still have so much restriction that it is really easy to maintain my weight. I feel so lucky to have gotten the sleeve. It was the best thing I could have ever done for myself! Good luck to you! :)

This is odd to me. After having 75% of your stomach removed to lose weight...you want to eat drive thru fried food?

Unless you're at goal' date=' I think your surgeon would faint.[/quote']

Sigh...

It's all trial and error. And boy do I know it if I drink too soon after eating.

Pasta doesn't sit well with me. One small bite and my meal is done. It sits like an uncomfortable brick. Just that one tiny bite!!! Even if its my first and only bite in a meal.

Fried foods hurt too.

I've had a lot of fun finding and creating healthier alternatives to my fave dishes that were less than stellar. That's a habit I started with Weight Watchers.

Oh, and beware of the Sleeve Authority! ;-)

I don't think we should be here to judge...we all were/are fatties and eating our favorite foods is a hard habit to break. We are here for moral support. I am sure we have all eaten something we shouldn't have at one point or another!!!

Try some white castle boo.

Wow what people will say when they are safely hidden behind a keyboard. I'd love to see you say that to someone's face in a support group. Oh wait, but then maybe your manners will have kicked in since people could see your face...

If you don't have anything nice to say...

Try sautéing shrimp in a pan. It cooks up real fast and is high Protein low carb, low cal. I made some in olive oil with fresh herbs and garlic and lemon. I know the temptation is there, and you are right we've all been there. But if you find alternatives it will help. You will learn quickly. Actually I think you can taste the shrimp better when it's not fried.

      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.
