GetBack_095 87 Posted August 11, 2016 You ever test your sleeve out on something you've been craving to see if you can tolerate it even though its forbidden from your diet? I have... and it was a terrible guilty feeling followed by dumping syndrome..... First time trying regular food... and its most definitely the last time for a WHILE Sent From Galaxy Note 5 using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

suzzzzz 1,005 Posted August 12, 2016 Nope. Have no desire to test my sleeve because I dont want a complication. I trust my doctor and his advice and plan have worked well for me. I am 7 weeks out and haven't had any issues. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lema 236 Posted August 12, 2016 (edited) I ate meat and bread at the end of my second week. The results were instant. Chocking, feeling nauseated and throwing up slime.. I did not dare touch anything until I was supposed to after that. I am greatful for that unpleasant incident because it reminds you to stay on track. My insurance did not pay for this surgery so I keep reminding myself that I paid that money to get healthy. I do not need to behave irresponsible now. I can and I will.

NeedaBreak4Me 1,755 Posted August 12, 2016 For us, nothing is forbidden, just advised against having it in excess.... everything in moderation and balanced with good foods. I have tried bread (was ok, but filling), rice noodles (omg worst feeling ever, heavy and cramping, never again), all types of meat (perfect), sausages (my sleeve hates them), chocolate (no dumping).. But as a disclaimer, when i tried these things it was a very small amount, literally 1/4 bread roll, 2 tbs noodles, 1 chocolate piece.... so i wouldn't know how larger quantities of them would be like, and i don't plan to find out!

cindyw41 761 Posted August 12, 2016 I tried ice cream at 4 months post op and it made me sick and have no desire to try it again. I've tried bread and it's not as good as I remember I've always hated rice, unless it was sushi but I had sushi and it didn't sit well, even just the 2 slices of a roll. I stuck to my 6 week restriction gradual diet, all of these "test" were when I was cleared for regular food.

Lema 236 Posted August 13, 2016 What is a fun way of eating cottage cheese?? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OzRoo 1,492 Posted August 13, 2016 chocolate at 4 weeks gave me a horrendous acid foaming attack, so painful and scary. Haven't touched it since! At 4 months I tried a scone/muffin with butter, this gave me bad nausea and indigestion. Haven't touched any bakery stuff since. I dumped shortly after I ate a scrambled egg, couple of months ago, and after beef mince, around the same time. Haven't touched eggs of beef since, but tried veal mince, and that was OK. So, I am sticking mostly with fish and chicken or turkey, non starchy vegetables, yoghurt, fruit and healthy crisps with cottage or cream cheese, plus Protein powder. These are the safe foods for me.

Candygyrl 637 Posted August 13, 2016 Yes I've tested the sleeve... I'm not going to say I was easily influenced by members here who were eating things early on I thought would end in immediate death. I had the fear of God in me as I shouldve. But I Also learned quickly, how successful you are depends on the choices we make. Like another poster mentioned why go through all this to sabotage yourself? It quickly snaps you back into the reality that you truly have to DO THE WORK CHILE. The sleeve helps reinforce where we would've gone off track. BTW Cottage cheese tastes like vomit. Ijs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
