What is the one food you cannot eat since bypass?



Recommended Posts

what is one food you can't eat since your bypass? ... Doesn't agree with you, gets stuck, makes you sick, hate it now, whatever, you just don't eat it anymore.

Despite the RNY being notorious for having a lot of "no-no" foods even well into maintenance phase, I haven't found many foods I cannot tolerate now (almost 14 months post-op). There is one food I miss and one that would be a good addition back into my diet that just refuses to sit well in my tummy: steak. I've tried everything; eating it with a sauce of some kind, chewing it beyond paste consistency until it basically disintegrates into my mouth, eating the most tender filet possible, etc. It seems my tummy will never again allow me to eat such a dense Protein. Oh well! Could be way, way worse! :)

I am 11 months out and still can't eat chicken. I just physically cannot. I get violently ill. I love chicken and miss it so much, but no matter how much sauce, brining, or marinating I do, it's still a no go. Same with pork. It's funny though because I live on a steady diet of beef Jerky and cheese sticks which I never would have eaten before or thought was a safe choice post op. LOL

It has been almost 3 years since having my bypass surgery and I still cannot eat anything pork I do not like the smell of pork either.

I was told in the beginning that this will pass but so far it has not.

Oh and creamy Soups...which is not the best for us anyways

Cereal in milk .... I felt so yucky afterwards and will never touch it again. Sad because I miss cereal but it's still all worth it [emoji12]

Steak. Ground beef. Pork loin roast. Sometimes hard cooked eggs. Soft boiled are fine though.

Miss steak. Sooooooook much. None work. Yet. 7 mos po RNY.

chicken definitely dark meat is fine. White is iffy.

Did I mention I miss steak????

Anything else, if I can't tolerate it, pretty much don't care. Just the steak. Did I mention that!!???? Lmao

@LisaMergs. I'm only 6 weeks out and haven't tried steak yet. I soooo hope I can tolerate steak when the time comes. I'm really a carnivore at heart. I feel your pain!

I can no longer tolerate chicken, pork, beef or eggs. I tolerate fish and seafood very well but the rest are a no no. I'm entirely fine with it. Doesn't bother me one bit.

Beef..steak...even ground beef. It sits hard, uncomfortable and even the thought of it...I dunno why? I only like beef jerky...it goes down fine, I never really even liked it before surgery. Weird huh??

      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.
