Does anyone eat pizza?



Recommended Posts

pizza is my absolute drug and every time I see it I want it so bad. I am only 6 weeks out and it is impossible for me to eat. I wanted to ask you vets if you eat pizza and at what stage? I'm hoping at maybe 6 months I can try it. But I'm afraid to be in pain.

I probably eat 6-8 slices per month, for me it was more then a year after my gastric bypass, but I had complications and went 180 days without food! Only Protein shakes!

I've had pizza three times now at 8 months most op. I can handle 1 slice minus the end crust. Can't fit in anymore. But it is nice every once in a while.

I rarely have pizza as its not my thing , but an occasional slice with THIN crust goes down just fine. There is a place near me ( Spiro's) that makes an amazing pizza with chicken , garlic, spinach and a cheesy white sauce, but what I love the most is their crust !!! I think it has cornmeal in it so its not thick and heavy like other crusts, and I have never gotten stuck eating this kind of crust. Try making your own !

We have a place near us that can make really unique pizzas like that. I think it's called Angelo's. I always like to try mine with artichoke hearts and goat cheese if I can.

I also, for the record, love Round Table's chicken Garlic pizza (with white sauce), although I've only been able to find that chain of restaurants in California...

um, I think we might have been twins seperated at birth. :) Sounds like the perfect pizza to me, only thing missing is a bit of spinach.

Pepperoni, mushroom, extra cheese, regular crust. Oh. My. God. That's crack to me. I'm only 1 month post op. It's the ONLY food I think I'd be tempted by. Way too scared to try it yet. I hope someday I can look at it and not feel passion. I do want to try the Greek version version. Yum.

Two Lakes Supper Club near Almond, WI makes the BEST shrimp pizza on a super thin crispy crust. Family owned and run since 1949. They close in the winter months and people put in their pizza orders by the dozens to stock in their freezers until they reopen in the spring. They also make a mean drunken chicken. Road trip anyone? http://www.hellotwolakes.com/history.html

Kindle, where are you from?? I'm in Beaver Dam WI and Almond is about 75 miles from me. I will definitely be making the trip for some shrimp pizza!!

I dream about this pizza. Pepperoni/mushroom. I also love the margarita pizza. I so wish I could have just one bite. I'm 7 weeks it would kill me. Like swallowing a rock. It would hurt all the way down for hours. I wouldn't be able to swallow my own saliva afterwards. Id probably end up throwing up or going to the ER for an endoscopy. Whew ok I don't want any pizza now. Hahaha

      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.
