You mean a problem eating it, as in keeping it down?

I don't eat orzo because it's just pasta; empty carbs. I would imagine if you can eat any Pasta, you wouldn't have trouble with orzo. I had some Soup yesterday that had pasta in it, no issues. It was a different shape than orzo, but still just pasta.

As a Greek woman, I have a philosophical issue with orzo and collard greens. 😁 🤷🏻‍♀️ Orzo is better with authentic feta (NOT that junk people buy in a grocery store) and lamb.

I have some good orzo in my cabinets, too, so I am interested in others’ experience with orzo.

I've had it a couple times and had no issue with it, although I get full too quickly from it.

Greek food has been a staple for me this past year and actually I spent last June travelling in Greece so other than orzo you should be fine. I make a lot of shrimp saganaki, halloumi, and homemade tzatziki. With real feta and real greek yogurt not whatever that stuff sold in America is.

I love orzo!! I made a really good Tuscan orzo with mushrooms and sundried tomatoes. It was so yummy. I bought some whole wheat orzo but I haven't tried it yet.

I loooove orzo and it goes down just fine.. only trouble is it’s so delicious I have to really pace myself so I don’t eat too fast 😆

My fear is that it WILL go down smoothly, so maybe I will hold off on orzo for a little while.

Ok I was getting confused here with "orzo" but I see it's Pasta, and yeah I can imagine it'd slip down a little too easily.

      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.
