I was told no pastas no bread until goal weight. pastas and breads have carbs in them that turn to sugar during digestion.

I was told no types of bread or Pasta for 6months at least.. I don't dare try anything my surgent told me not to.. what's the point of this surgery if were just gonna eat the same fatty foods..

You should be able to have everything, moderation is the whole point of any bariatric surgery. I have pasta most days I'm 6 weeks post op. I've lost 3 stone (42lb) 4 stone to go

.I serve every meal in a little ramakin with two table spoons of food in. We need to have a balanced diet and gain control of our mind. Refined sugar isn't on our menu, but a LITTLE pasta with fish, meat and sauce....no worries. The hardest part of this whole process is learning how to eat again but eating right! Xx

I am not supposed to have bread, rice, or Pasta until 6mos either, not because they are carbs, but because they are often not tolerated.

Hi Shonabear!

Thanks for your thoughts! I am now 3 weeks post op. I have a really hard time getting my liquids in but other than that all is great. I'm now down 15 pounds and 23 inches. I have started eating regular food...soft foods including some soft meats. I have not....at least to this point had any complications or discomfort. I've not had any pain since the day after surgery. I'm so very thankful I'm doing this well!

I'm 3 weeks out. I can't have any breads or meats yet. My surgeon allows his patients to have Pasta, as long as you chew very well. I've had no problems. Down 30 pounds.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
