Lol. I'll be struggling to give up the Mexican food lol

I LOVE Mexican food and eat it at least once a week. For me it is one of the easier foods to make not so fat. You can use fat free Beans, low fat cheeses, corn tortillas. The possibilities are endless!

Darlin'' date=' when you've done weeks of nothing but yoghurt and Protein drinks, you will sell your kidney or the rights to your first unborn child for a mouthful of pizza.. In fact.. a mouthful of anything that has some taste to it. One piece of pizza is not going stop the world from spinning on its axis...[/quote']

AMEN!! Now I know what I want!

Makes alot of sense. ..I didn't have this surgery to constantly be on a diet. My little new tummy is handled with care and if I want to eat anything, I will, but in much smaller doses and only once in a while. I feel so much better now that I've lost 40 lbs, can't wait for the next 60 to go away forever. I got this. :-)

Same here! I'm 4 months post op and haven't had pizza since before surgery! And me and the hubby decided to order Dominos. Before surgery, we would order 2 large pizzas and we would both eat more than half of pizza and then have it for lunch the next day! This time, we only ordered one pizza! Half pepperoni, half roasted chicken, peppers,ham,bacon,etc! (Protein overload) God, it smelled amazing! I definitely missed it! Sooooooo, I took a slice. Took my first bite! And it went down and almost instantly ..I felt bloatey! I knew I cannot eat the base, the pastry,the dough, whatever you call it! So, I ate everything but the base. You can say I ate 1 slice of pizza and I was full! But technically I only ate the toppings and the cheese on 1 slice of pizza and I was full! I couldn't believe it! Oh, and I had a realisation while eating it! Eating only the toppings..without the base..doesn't taste like pizza that much lol. I guess the base makes pizza the wonderful thing that it is !

      Sometimes reading the posts here make me wonder if some people just weren't mentally ready for WLS and needed more time with the bariatric team psychiatrist. Complaining about the limited drink/food choices early on... blah..blah...blah. The living to eat mentality really needs to go and be replaced with eating to live. JS

        We have to remember that everyone moves at their own pace. For some it may be harder to adjust, people may have other factors at play that feed into the unhealthy relationship with food e.g. eating disorders, trauma. I'd hope those who you are referring to address this outside of this forum, with a professional.


        This is a place to feel safe to vent, seek advice, hopefully without judgement.


        Compassion goes a long way :)

        Seems it would be more compassionate not to perform a WLS on someone until they are mentally ready for it. Unless of course they are on death's door...

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.
