Anyone else still able to tolerate all foods?



Recommended Posts

I can tolerate pretty much everything but chicken...it gets me nearly every time so I just try to avoid it. Also candy...I tolerated some at Halloween then had a crazy moment where I had a bit more..nope! My 1st real dumping episode. candy is out! bread and rice aren't in my diet much but haven't had any probs.

Can tolerate pretty much anything that I have tried including bacon, ice cream. The two big no no's. Fat and sugar, it is in moderation and I mean moderation. Also had hard bread and was able to tolerate that. Had surgery 9/11/13. Now with all that said, I'm going to have to stay away from those, that was the issue that got me to the point of being overweight. So going to have to slap my hands when I reach for those particular things. :huh:

Carbs still hurt my pouch...haven't tried anything with sugar, but noodles and tortillas really hurt my pouch.

I still have no room for carbs. I tried quinoa the other day for the first time. It was good but I could only eat a couple of tablespoons. There's just no room after my Protein. I have been following my plan religiously so I haven't had any sugar, Pasta, rice, or bread. If it doesn't contain protein I don't eat it.

Yep, I can eat/drink everything except milk. I buy Almond milk now which is great. I haven't tried anything with a high sugar content, only because I don't like sweet things. But I've had no problems at all with everything else.

I've swapped to soy milk and almond also. Good Calcium and let tummy discomfort.

I thought it was just me. I'm relieved I'm not the only one not tolerating chicken. I don't eat bread much because I'd rather have more good stuff. Like the other day I had a slice of pizza and only ate the toppings, that.was.awesome!

I'm a sleever but it is interesting that so few bypassers seem to dump. I have seen people specifically going for bypass so they WOULD dump if they ate the "wrong" things. I hope they haven't been disappointed. A very few sleevers dump too. Lots of sleevers have trouble with really dry dense Protein, fluffy bread, rice, and really fibrous veggies though. I don't have trouble with anything in moderation as long as I chew chew chew. I don't think any of us can rely on the "bad" foods making us sick to stay on the straight and narrow. Long term, everyone seems to adapt. It is so interesting to me how sleevers and bypassers seem to have similar journeys in the long term.

Chicken is my kryptonite. I can't eat it in any form except ground. I also can't tolerate tuna, rice, or any food that has rice flour.

      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.
