_Kate_ 2,224 Posted February 12, 2017 Ask for a plan from your team. They should give you the lowdown on what you are to eat and when. Do you have a date for surgery yet or are you just looking into it? Kate Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LIA-70 136 Posted February 12, 2017 Hi, feel your pain. Im dying for some penne ala vodka :-(.Every doc follows a diff nutrition plan. I was allowed toast at phase 3 which i was moved to on my follow up at week 3 post op. I got sleeved, hernia repair and gall bladder removed. S/w ur doc n nut about getting a clear breakdown so u dont mess up your progress n healing process. FYI, i cheated n had a few french fries that made me wish some1 would shoot me n put me out of my misery. Learned quick fast to not jump the gun n follow my damn plan. Lord it was horrible. Good luck. 2 HodZ and shawnak911 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mylighthouse 782 Posted February 12, 2017 I was told no bread for now, and I'm 13 weeks post op. My nutritionist said I can have a piece of toast if I want to. I know that personally, I stay away from toast and Pasta at this point in my weight loss journey, because of the fact that breads and Pasta are high in carbs. I want to make sure that I keep my carbs lower than 45 grams a day, or I can't lose weight. 3 _Kate_, LIA-70 and HodZ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LIA-70 136 Posted February 12, 2017 Pasta s my chryptonite so im steering clear of it. I got rye pumpernickel bread n i can eat just 1 slice. Ive had it like every 3 or 4 days 4 bkfst. My body is slow at tolerating many foods so far so im very thankful for the things that dont make me sick. Good thing is im still on track with weightloss. 1 HodZ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SuperDave 1,115 Posted February 13, 2017 Don't give in to the cravings. It takes a long time, but you will get over it. At 2+ years post op, I rarely even think about bread or Pasta anymore. You are better off without it. 4 blizair09, shawnak911, HodZ and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sullie06 1,013 Posted February 13, 2017 I'm 6 1/2 weeks post op. I'm allowed Pasta though I haven't had any yet and toast. I have toast about twice a week. My nut said starches are important and everything in moderation. 2 weeks until I'm cleared for full diet. 2 HodZ and LIA-70 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CDH!! 18 Posted February 13, 2017 I was sleeved in December, I can't have Pasta, bread , or rice for 6 months but truly have no craving for it. I try to stick to 3 meals a day , no Snacks and I make the largest part of the meal Protein. Weight loss have been slow and steady. I've lost 36 lbs. 65 to go. 1 HodZ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CDH!! 18 Posted February 13, 2017 Thanks. It took me a long time to make the decision to do but I'm glad I did. This was the right time for me. 1 HodZ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vccaan 3 Posted February 13, 2017 My nut said the only carbs to have are the natural kind. I am 11 months out and have had one forkful of Pasta. I miss it. Maybe because I'm Italian and grew up with it. Idk. I have no idea who's correct. I just know that I would like a small portion with my Protein every so often.

meme21 3 Posted February 13, 2017 Hi everyone! I had the sleeve this past January and lost 36 pounds. Its really hard and not easy because I live I NYC and its cold and usually I want a hot meal and pig out. But I keep in mind what I accomplished so far and I want to loose more and I use to have back pain thank god I don't have any more pain. so I maintain my diet with my homemade Soups or can soups and most important Protein Shake I recommend Unjury Protein shake. I was introduced this shake at ny Presbyterian hospital best hospital in. NYC and awesome staff. I hope this information inspire someone and congratulations to all on your journey of success and don't give up we can do it!
