When is it a good time to eat noodle



Recommended Posts

I've had no issue eating noodles since I got to the solid food stage, which was two months post op for me. I know other programs progress quicker but mine was slow. I just wouldn't recommend making noodles part of your regular diet because they are high in simple carbs.

Check with your dietician. My instructions were to add plant based whole wheat carbs after 75% of my weight loss. I eat whole wheat spaghetti and Lasagna noodles.

If you mean when are you physically capable of eating noodles? Probably sometime in the soft food stage. If you mean when you should nutritionally eat noodles? Probably never. You should be putting Protein first, which means not wasting room on filler carbs like Pasta, rice, bread, etc.

As soon as you want to start gaining weight.

Funny but true! :)

I'm 8 mos out and never eat Pasta. I could eat 2 bites or like 1 ravioli. It never sits well. I think I eat too much too fast and it's the closest I've been to throwing up. Not worth it.

I do eat Pasta -- but I've been in maintenance for a year.

It certainly wasn't a "food group" while I was losing weight though.

I'm only 6 weeks post op and was told by my number no carbs till 3 months post op (at minimum). I would even suggest try making zoodles (zucchini noodles)! I have a zoodle maker and any time my husband has noodles I made my own.

I am almost 5yrs out and still can not eat rice or Pasta.

I am one of the lucky "sleeve dumpers". I say lucky because dumping keeps me honest and true to my sleeve which is still working for/with me.

I can eat "miracle noodles". They have no calories,no carbs, no nothing. They are available in most Pasta shapes as well as rice.

Why not give them a try?

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
