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.

      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.
