avoid bread I thought 1 month post op I could eat any of the stuff u had listed u can learn the hard way way to soon for stuff that expands in your stomach u will regret it... had bread get stuck was not a pleasant experience and I was advised if it doesn't stay down the next 3 days I had to be on a liquid diet due to inflamed tummy ... stomach takes along time to heal u didn't do all this work for nothing that piece of bread can wait!!! I did however eat a few potato chips just cus I needed to have the crunch feeling while eating.. if u do that try the simply baked lays there amazing!! just don't eat too many!..

Breads and white carbs were not recommend until after 8 weeks on my program. You are only eating small amounts of foods and those carbs are taking up space where Protein should go. Also breads are harder to break down and can cause "stacking" or that stuck feeling.

I would check with your NUT since every plan is different. I was just given my soft diet outline today because I start the next stage tomorrow. I can eat a slice of bread or 1/2 pita or 1/2 bun or 1/2 tortilla Obviously all whole wheat.

I cannot tolerate bread (10 weeks) but I can have a few crackers if I eat them slowly. I like them with tuna or chicken salad.< /p>

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
