Pizza and Pancakes



Recommended Posts

So I'm newly banded, & am still on the "full liquid" phase, but as for a really thin crust pizza, do you have a "Monical's" around where you are? Maybe ask the waiter to make it extra crispy and small bites and chew chew chew! I've been told as far as the cheese, cheese is good it's a Protein.

I have no advice on the pancakes! Good luck!!!!!!

I tried pizza about 5 monthes after I got banded. I had the meat and cheese and left the bread alone. I didn't however keep it down though. Body wouldn't handle it. I haven't tried pancakes but being I live in the south and there are waffle houses on every corner, I have had a waffle sorta.

I put the butter and Syrup on it and had about a ½ of a ¼. so I guess that makes it an 1/8th lol. and it went down ok. I think it was more of the mental thing on that one that made you go what the hell are you doing. I did however enjoy a mixture of grits/eggs/ and chunked up bancon. mmmmm Lots and lots of black pepper.

Neither are of course optimal food choices, but I have ate both. Best to save these for a reward meal. Then, eat very slow - with small bites. They are the kind of foods that take me a long time to eat. I have to take a bite and go do something for 5 minutes, then come back for another bite. What's bad is you either end up eating cold food or constantly warming it up.

I haven't tried pancakes cause I figure they don't have any Protein or nutritional value. About once a month I do have a strong craving for pizza. We order a thin crust pepperoni from Domino's and I can eat 2 small squares very very slowly generally with no problem.:)

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
