I'm so fat....

[lexx1209 2]

Sooo I'm 9 days post op and have been literally craving all food, anything, whatever I see however I'm on my 2 weeks of liquids....well my mom made some baked ziti and I ate 2 spoonfuls.... Major heartburn and my sleeve did not like it at all.... My stomach was not happy until I vomited it all up.... Then I was fine- I am sooooo done with food I may even stay on this liquid phase a lot longer because of the side effects I had..... I think this was exactly what I needed to stay on track- hope I didn't damage my sleeve tho ????

I'm sorry you had to suffer, but I'm glad you feel you learned something from the experience. I think nutritionists need to be more emphatic when they explain the post op phases. My nutritionist had me so scared to go off program that I never considered trying any solids before they were allowed.

I understand that most of us have been on diets all our life. Earlier, when we went off those diets all we were risking was the end of weight loss.

But during the first few weeks and even months post-op if we eat those foods that we aren't approved to eat or too much food we are risking so much more.

This is a very different situation than we've ever been in before. It requires a different attitude.

Be smart.

Hold on who let negAtive nancy into your world? Kick her to the corner! Find the positive! Look I'm speaking for myself and nobody else when I say hey I'm fat and I know it. That's why I had WLS. Because I made a choice to do something about it and it seems you did as well.

So you slipped and boy did you pay the price! I would have been super scared of the pasta! Oh my my! I'm 7wks and as per my nut Pasta isn't on the table for many many more weeks. Heck I'm having issues with many thing.

Do you have yourself refocused. There is a baked ricotta I've seen posted that would help with the cravings. Get creative with small batches off food that your program allows. If your still on liquid make flavor packed Soups and get in all the liquid and Protein you can. It will get better. Stay focused on the prize and the next time your tempted do a quick recall on this event and how you felt. I'm certain that will help

I had ziti the other day. No issues at all. Everyone is different.

I am 8 weeks out and I have tolerated Pasta fine. I don't eat much of it... Like I made shrimp linguini... Had maybe 2-3 noodles with all my shrimp. I've also had stuffed shells with grilled chicken and cheese. Everyone is different. Although 9 days is still too early, lol lesson learned right? It will get better sweetie. Hang in there.
