Who has tried pizza? How did you do with it? How long after surgery until u tried it?

I tried regular crust 3 months post op and the bread felt like a brick sitting in the bottom of my stomach. I made a pita last week using a small 80 cal tortilla and that went well. I am 4 months now. Just couldn't handle all the dough on a regular pizza.< /p>

I can do a super thin crust or I make a tortilla pizza. I crisp the tortilla before I put the toppings on it and make it like a cracker with light cheese and turkey pepporoni. I am 7 months out and have been using this as my 'lazy' dinner for a while now. I also do a light BBQ Sauce, grilled chicken and light cheese.

I did pizza about 4 months post op. Pre-surgery I could down like 4 slices ... post surgery I can barely get down one, I do get the very thin crusted pizza as well. I can do the thick stuff anymore. I'm 14 months post op and can still only do one slice... everything in moderation :)

I can't do delivery pizza anymore, which is a good thing! I'm in Chicago and pizza was my downfall. I can now do a small piece of frozen.

I ca do a slice plus 2-3 bites of thin crust....slowly :). But absolutely don't crave it, only eat it when we're at functions and that all we have.

my surgery was the 19th and I actually cheated and had a wedge of a personal pan pizza and tolerated it well but felt very full! I haven't had any pain, nausea, or dumping since surgery! fluids are steady at around 60 oz now.

I can eat a tiny slice of frozen pizza if its super thin. I can't eat ordered takeout pizza. Too chewy and greasy.

      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.
