TinyMamiOf3kids 1,280 Posted June 11, 2012 Well my friend said she tried Beans and they didn't hurt her and I am getting tired of Soups and wanted to try something new I know it's my bad :-( Dont beat your self up. You were curious try it & vomit. I'm learning the hard way also. I feel like an anorexia. Afraid to eat if I bite something i vomit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shellb 9 Posted June 11, 2012 Well my friend said she tried Beans and they didn't hurt her and I am getting tired of Soups and wanted to try something new I know it's my bad :-( Don' fear the puree embrace it, add spice and flavors, make the Soup taste Mexican with spices...blend the burito in there if you must. The pouch rules your life now, you need to be kind to it early on or that eat/vomit/fear food cycle starts. You really want to avoid the stress that comes with fearing food if you can. Rice and Pasta are still expanding when freshly cooked and served. Two bites are the size of four by the time they hit the pouch, don't eat them while you're healing. If you want to eat them later on, go for things like the Uncle Ben's 90 second heat n eat, they are pre-cooked and are as expanded as their going to get. And chew, chew chew, then chew some more.

shellb 9 Posted June 11, 2012 @shellb I know I have learned my lesson how far out are u from your surgery?? One lesson at a time :-) Some are fun, wait until you shorten the seatbelt or move the seat closer to the steering wheel! 4 years. Rice, Pasta and bread are common problem foods but in time you learn what your pouch will tolerate and how much. Of course, these carbs aren't the best foods in the first place... 1 berniec reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mandy101011 5 Posted June 11, 2012 Fried rice was a hard lesson learned for me too. I wouldve thought I was having a heart attack, but knew it was RNY related. Terrible pain, never again! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
