New food favs over time



Recommended Posts

After WLS what were some foods you really began to like? Did you lose your interest in them later?

About seven months post banding I discovered hummus, and had it nearly every day in every flavor, with celery, raw green Beans or carrots. That died out around month ten. Today I can take or leave hummus -- weird, huh?

My latest craving is kale salad with olive oil and balsamic vinegar dressing, grated Parmesan cheese and cherry tomatoes. My daughter made this on Thanksgiving and it's so good.

I never thought I'd enjoy a salad without creamy ranch or bleu cheese dressing.

Hummus has become a staple for me but what has become a real favorite for me is fish. It's so band-friendly and when made well, is just so delicious. It was never a go to food for me but is now.

I am still in love with chicken Tortilla Soup from Chick Fil A . 260 calories of goodness and good Protein source. I don't miss Pasta, bread or soda. I am trying to maintain my loss and hope to get to my goal soon. I still love coffee and eat fish more often too. Wendy's chili is also a good band food if you are out and need to eat...

I am LOVING fish after being sleeved! It's a great Protein source, and really treats my sleeve well. Another thing...I hated green Beans pre sleeve, now I LOVE them! Go figure :P

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
