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.

How far out are you? I can eat about a half of a hamburger with no bun very slowly. I am 2 months out. Talk to your doctor

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.

i eat pizza , and tortillias at leat 1 time to 2 times a week and I assume its just natrual. If your not in any pain or hurting yourself I don't see a problem with it.

Nope not really painful. I know when I'm full that's about it. 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!

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.

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.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
