Well I had some bacon for the first time since my surgery june 24. Well I won't be doing that for a long time again.

I like it really crisped up and baked.

I had one piece and it sat like a lead balloon for hourssssssss

Well, that's a bummer. Bacon is meat's fruit (not my quote.. but funny, right?).

Sorry it got stuck :(

Sadly, everything I have tried basically agrees with my sleeve. It's all willpower now. But personally if I am going to go for a salty pork product it's gonna be proscuitto every time.

Almost went for bacon the other day. My husband made a huge Breakfast and the smell of the bacon was so tempting. I was like one little piece my husband says no you can't have that remember? I am like oh man I almost forgot, he saved me from that bite. Thank God it was an instinct to just take a piece. close call that was the old me not new sleeved me. thanks for the advice I will stay away to from it.

Almost 2 years out and still have a rocky relationship with some beef and pork. tuna and some other foods. I try them and don't give up. You should try them now and then to see if your sleeve has changed and you can now tolerate it. K :)

You had me at Bacon. lol. I have Butterball turkey bacon, low sodium and love it. Regular bacon is a little harder to digest. I was dead against trying turkey bacon but I was pleasantly surprised at how delicious is.

      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.
