cuchas 51 Posted February 17, 2016 There are a lot of foods i have given up since getting sleeved. I am much happier changing how I eat and don't have any problems with my new meal plan.< /p> However, I was talking to my friend today and I told her I have completely given up bread. Her late mother had gastric bypass and used to eat whatever she wanted - chips, soda, various of unhealthy foods. She did reach her goal though. My friend told me that I can still eat bread but should change to wheat and only have it in moderation. What about you all? What have you guys eliminated and would you add bread back in?

DaisyAmy 561 Posted February 17, 2016 I have not had bread yet. Maybe someday, but there's just not enough room after Protein. I've basically given up most carbs - rice, Pasta, potatoes, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cuchas 51 Posted February 17, 2016 I have not had bread yet. Maybe someday, but there's just not enough room after Protein. I've basically given up most carbs - rice, Pasta, potatoes, etc. So have I. I don't eat carbs at all! I do miss it though. Everyone keeps telling me I should slowly add carbs back in but I don't think I'm ready. Plus, I have had rice / bread once since getting my surgery in June and it just doesn't sit well in my stomach. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Babbs 14,681 Posted February 17, 2016 I have pretty much eliminated anything made in a factory. Yup. Me too. I try to eat as clean as possible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bufflehead 6,358 Posted February 17, 2016 bread is both physically uncomfortable for me to eat, and verging on nutritionally worthless. I don't eat it and I don't drink anything carbonated. When I am in weight loss mode, I also eliminate all grains, all starchy veggies, Beans and legumes, and sweets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Inner Surfer Girl 12,015 Posted February 18, 2016 For me, I have eliminated: carbonation, alcohol, anything fried, sugary things like cake, most starches most of the time, Pasta, and anything sugary like fruit juice.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BarrySue 602 Posted February 18, 2016 Sugar, simple carbs (bread, Pasta, rice), a lot of heavy meats (they are just too dense for me to get down), soda/sweet drinks, candy, fried/greasy food (except chickfila nuggets, but they actually work well in my diet). Pretty much everything I used to love, lol. I have little to interest in food, so my diet is a bit of fruit, protein/nutrition bars, Soup, cheese, and usually a lean meat as my dinner meal. Occasionally I'll have a little 100 cal bag of popcorn or baked chips, but as the time passes, I don't even crave that anymore. I'm so busy between work, school, and a million other things that having nutrition and Protein Bars to nibble on throughout the day is the only way I can get food down (It's a struggle to get to 900-1000 calories, and without the nutrition bars, I wouldn't come close).

Pillar2butterfly 391 Posted February 18, 2016 No bread for me....my tummy hates it now...so it's just not worth the pain to eat it. After 6 months, I'm not really missing it at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rnsamantha 352 Posted February 18, 2016 I eat an occasional sandwich thin, because my trainer insists I need some more carbs, but bread, Pasta, rice etc sits like a rock in my stomach and makes me feel sick for about an hour after I eat it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
