Ginagirl 21 Posted October 3, 2013 Can anyone else eat bread? Pasta? Anything? I can eat almost a whole hamburger...no joke..I can eat things like a Breakfast burrito. Maybe it's because I was a Lapband patient before, and I haven't been able to consume many things in seven years...I'm in disbelief though. Feel like I did not have surgery and as if I took a step backwards or something. I know this is mind over matter or whatever but I cant express how I feel like I'm going backwards.

lilbearzmom 584 Posted October 3, 2013 How about making better choices? Eat lean Protein and veggies- try that. I can pretty much guarantee you won't be able to eat much if you stick to healthier options. 1 Mrs.RRn reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I work with a girl that has a sleeve and she thinks its weird I eat a breakest burrito. So guess that's why I ask. Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ReDbEaN 654 Posted October 3, 2013 I tried a carb balance tortilla - OMG I thought I was gonna die and I only ate MAYBE a 1/4 of a small one!! Soooo since then I don't really want bread...I've had potatoes and they are okay...just a bite or two though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
katie75009 34 Posted October 3, 2013 I have taken a bite or two of bread a few times. I've also eaten a small soft taco a couple of times. I definitely know when I'm full. I could see eating a breakfast burrito if it was really small. I haven't tried a hamburger, but have a hard time with ground meat. I try to stay away from breads, but don't always succeed.
