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.

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 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...

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!

      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.
